Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, is it permissible for tribes to possess water and prevent people from it if they settle around it?
Answer:
Water that is in its place is not permissible for him to claim. As for the water they have taken in their vessels and containers, that is their property. But what remains in its place in the ground, whether in a spring or a pool, is not his property.
