Ruling on transplanting a tree from the spring growth in Makkah to outside it

Question:
A questioner asks: Is it permissible to transplant a tree from the trees of Makkah to outside it, when it is from the spring growth?

Answer:
The growth that sprouts from the rain is not permissible to uproot, nor to transplant, nor to deal with in any way, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said regarding Makkah: So one does not touch it with anything. This applies only to what a human has planted: the trees that a human has planted, the palm tree or the tree that a human has planted and watered. He may deal with that, and he may uproot it. As for what grew from the rain or without watering, and this is within the boundaries of the Haram, a Muslim does not touch it. Yes.
