Not applying the ruling of al-Madinah to Makkah regarding the permissibility of taking from trees and grass for need

The questioner : Yes. Honorable Shaykh, may Allah bless you. We mentioned that it is not among the differences he cited that they need supports and means. Does this imply that it is permissible for them to need that in Makkah, so it is permissible?

The Shaykh : There is nothing wrong with the fact that the people of the desert do not need it. They do not need it because they are not people of agriculture in a valley without crops.
