Preventing people from the shade of the walls

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, what is your opinion regarding the one who prevents people from the shade of the walls and keeps them away from it? He says, “It is mine.”

Answer:
If there is harm to him from the presence of people under the shade of his house, listening to him and his household, and eavesdropping on all of that, then it is different. But if there is no harm to him, it is not permissible to prevent them from it. Because these are public facilities, public facilities, unless their use results in harm. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said: They listen to their secrets, to their women, or they listen to backbiting and talebearing, or they gather for foolishness and committing sins. In that case, he may prevent them. Yes.
