The ruling on a lessee subletting to the owner without his consent

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: If a person leases a piece of land or a shop, is it permissible for him to lease it to someone else without the consent of the original owner?

Answer:
If the use by the second lessee does not exceed the use by the first lessee, but is merely the same, then there is nothing wrong with that. However, if the use by the second lessee harms the property or causes a deficiency in it, then it is not permissible.
