٢٤۔٥٦ باب الْمَوَاشِي تُفْسِدُ زَرْعَ قَوْمٍ

abudawud:3569Aḥmad b. Muḥammad b. Thābit al-Marwazī > ʿAbd al-Razzāq > Maʿmar > al-Zuhrī > Ḥarām b. Muḥayyiṣah from his father

The she-camel of Bara' ibn Azib entered the garden of a man and did damage to it. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave decision that the owners of properties are responsible for guarding them by day, and the owners of animals are responsible for guarding them by night.  

أبو داود:٣٥٦٩حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ الْمَرْوَزِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ حَرَامِ بْنِ مُحَيِّصَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ

أَنَّ نَاقَةً لِلْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ دَخَلَتْ حَائِطَ رَجُلٍ فَأَفْسَدَتْهُ عَلَيْهِمْ فَقَضَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَلَى أَهْلِ الأَمْوَالِ حِفْظَهَا بِالنَّهَارِ وَعَلَى أَهْلِ الْمَوَاشِي حِفْظَهَا بِاللَّيْلِ  

abudawud:3570Maḥmūd b. Khālid > al-Firyābī > al-Awzāʿī > al-Zuhrī > Ḥarām b. Muḥayyiṣah al-Anṣārī > al-Barāʾ b. ʿĀzib

Al-Bara' had a she-camel which was accustomed to graze the standing crop belonging to the people. She entered a garden and did damage to it. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was informed about it. So he gave decision that the owners of gardens are responsible for guarding them by day, and the owners of the animals are responsible for guarding them by night. Any damage done by animals during the night is a responsibility lying on their owners.  

أبو داود:٣٥٧٠حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ حَدَّثَنَا الْفِرْيَابِيُّ عَنِ الأَوْزَاعِيِّ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ حَرَامِ بْنِ مُحَيِّصَةَ الأَنْصَارِيِّ عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ قَالَ

كَانَتْ لَهُ نَاقَةٌ ضَارِيَةٌ فَدَخَلَتْ حَائِطًا فَأَفْسَدَتْ فِيهِ فَكُلِّمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِيهَا فَقَضَى أَنَّ حِفْظَ الْحَوَائِطِ بِالنَّهَارِ عَلَى أَهْلِهَا وَأَنَّ حِفْظَ الْمَاشِيَةِ بِاللَّيْلِ عَلَى أَهْلِهَا وَأَنَّ عَلَى أَهْلِ الْمَاشِيَةِ مَا أَصَابَتْ مَاشِيَتُهُمْ بِاللَّيْلِ
