The Shaykh : Al-nahbah (plundering) may refer to plundering from war spoils, or to plundering in general. As for plundering from war spoils, it is not permissible because it is ghalul (embezzlement). As for plundering in general, it is forbidden due to the baseness involved and its contradiction of honor, and it is also forbidden if the owner does not consent to it, making it forbidden, though it is not like ghalul from war spoils.
