Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: As for the wilderness around the city of Riyadh, he says it is free of wild beasts. Does lost sheep have the same ruling as mentioned previously?

Answer:
The wilderness where there are no residents and no one is present is exposed to being eaten by wild beasts or dogs. As for the wilderness near the town that is not devoid of people, or pedestrians, or... this has the ruling of the town.
