Ruling on cutting trees within the boundaries of the Haram for the purpose of construction
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible to cut down trees such as the Anin tree or others?
The Shaykh:
The Nile. The Nile. The Nile.
The questioner:
With the letter mim, within the boundaries of the Haram, for the purpose of building a house, is it considered permissible? And if he cuts it down, does he owe an expiation?
The Shaykh:
As for the trees that a person plants and cultivates, there is nothing wrong with cutting them down. But as for the trees that grow from the rain, he does not cut them down; he does not cut them down. And if he wants to cut down trees to build a house, it is not necessary that he consult the court; it is necessary that he consult the court. A committee will go out and look, yes, to see what is to be dealt with, yes.
