Question:
Also, the brother Ali from Riyadh asks, saying: Honorable Shaykh, some neighbors harm their neighbors by discharging a lot of water during laundry, or sometimes the water from your sewers, may Allah reward you, and other things comes out. What is the guidance for these people?
Answer:
This is harm. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) informed us that removing harm from the road is a branch of faith, and the implication is that throwing harm into the road is a branch of hypocrisy. So the Muslim should stay away from this and not expose the roads of Muslims to it, whether by placing something in them, or by placing harm, or by placing barriers, or anything else. Yes.
