There is some livestock on the highways for which I do not see an owner. Is it permissible for us to drink their milk?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : He says: There is some livestock on the highways for which I do not see an owner. Is it permissible for us to drink their milk?
The Shaykh : Yes, what appears to me is that this livestock is close to its owners. If you drink its milk, you would waste it for them. So, scrupulousness requires you to leave it and not drink from its milk, because if its owner were to find it, problems would arise between you and him. A person is commanded to leave what leads to problems and disputes. For this reason, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade a man from selling over his brother’s sale or proposing marriage over his brother’s proposal. All of this is so that people stay away from problems among themselves. Yes, if you find a large amount of livestock in a place where there is no shepherd around them, you may drink from their milk, on the condition that it does not harm their young, if they have young, on the condition that it does not affect their young, if they have young. Yes.
