The planter of the usurper in the usurped land and his demand for its price

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: If the owner of the usurped land requests that the trees and date palms planted by the usurper be left in place, does the usurper have the right to demand payment for them?

Answer:
It is not for the usurper, nor for the owner of the land; it belongs to the one who planted them. He takes them, vacates the land of the one from whom it was usurped, and repairs the land by filling in the holes.
