Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Excellency the Shaykh, and may Allah benefit Islam and the Muslims with your knowledge. The questioner says: Your Excellency the Shaykh, are cars considered a secure place (hirs) at this time, such that if someone steals a car, his hand must be cut off?
Answer:
They are not considered a secure place because they are on the street; what is on the street is not secured. If it were inside and locked, yes. But if it is locked on the street, that is not a secure place. Yes.
