Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He asks: Is the presence of many ants in the home evidence of envy toward the people of the house?
Answer:
Ants live in the ground and reside in the earth. It may be that the owner of the house is building on top of them while he is working on his houses. It is obligatory for him to guard against them before he builds and to do something to keep the ants away from him. If the ants come to his house, he should drive them away by the easiest means possible. If he cannot drive them away except by killing them, then he kills them so that he is safe from their harm, because they are a nuisance. Yes.
