What is the basis for the terms "settler" and "resident," and is the resident the owner of the country?

The questioner : It is obligatory to designate him as a settler and a resident. So, considering that the resident is the owner of the country, the settler is in the country.
The Shaykh : No, that is not correct. The resident is the one who is not from the people of the country, but he passed through it and stayed there for his work. The Shaykh of Islam says there is no difference, but this is a terminological classification. What is it with us now? I think even from the perspective of the system, it is said that so-and-so is a resident if he is one of those who came to the country for work or is a visitor.
The questioner : Resident and citizen, citizen and resident.
The Shaykh : Which citizen is your mother?
The questioner : He is in a state of travel, not...
The Shaykh : It suffices for them. Yes, indeed. I mean, it implies that the Friday prayer is not established with them. If we suppose there are thirty settlers and ten of these four categories, then the Friday prayer is not held for those who stipulate forty, and his leading the prayer in it is not valid, nor is it valid for him to be the preacher.
The questioner : The third.
The Shaykh : Well, the time is up. One hadith, what is it? Another one?
