Taking a fallen knife from within the boundaries of the Haram
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: I performed Hajj and took a knife that had fallen on the ground from within the boundaries of the Haram. I did not know at that time that it was within the boundaries of the Haram. Now, the place where I took it from is inhabited and populated. What should I do? May Allah reward you.
Answer:
If this knife has a value, you must appraise it and give its price in charity within the Haram. If it has no value, being an ordinary item like a short rope or a stick or something similar, it has no ruling, neither in the Haram nor elsewhere. The one who finds it may take it, and it has no ruling.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
