Cutting a Sidrah Tree Inside the Haram

The questioner:
Please, my brother 'Abd al-Ghani from Makkah. Peace be upon you, peace be upon you. How are you? May Allah keep you alive. A problem? Please, go ahead. Peace be upon you, Shaykh. Peace be upon you. Shaykh, we have a Sidrah tree and I wanted to cut it down, but some people told me that if I want to cut it down, I must slaughter a cow. Is this statement correct?

The Shaykh:
And the one with the sidrah tree. Where is it?

The questioner:
Our house.

The Shaykh:
In the Haram.

The questioner:
Yes, inside the Haram.

The Shaykh:
Inside the Haram, and did you plant it, or did it grow naturally without being planted?

The questioner:
No, no, I planted it, I mean.

The Shaykh:
I don't know if cutting it down is contrary to the rules.

The questioner:
Contrary to the rules, Shaykh?

The Shaykh:
There is nothing wrong with it, there is nothing wrong with it, yes.

The presenter:
Thank you.
