The ruling on taking the male date palm flowers from a palm tree in the street

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: Does taking the male date palm flowers from a palm tree in the street constitute theft?

Answer:
Even if it is not in the street, taking the male date palm flowers is not theft. If the taking results in a significant increase in the value, and the tree is in a house or has a guard, then it is theft. But if it is in the street and there are no guards or anything else, then it is not theft.
