The Ruling on Car Thieves

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, what is the legal ruling regarding car thieves? Are they treated in the same manner as a thief?

Answer:
If the cars are secured behind walls or behind doors, meaning they are out of reach, but if they are parked in the streets, they are not secured.
