[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever revives a dead land that no one has owned before, it belongs to him and not to any unjust person. It is his right." He said, "The narrator of this Hadith told me that he saw two men from Bayadhah disputing in front of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about a piece of land. One of them had planted a palm tree in it. So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ruled in favor of the owner of the land and ordered the owner of the palm tree to remove it. He said, "I saw him striking the roots of the palm tree with an axe, and indeed, it was a healthy palm tree." Yahya bin Adam said, "Al-'Um is referred to by some as neither short nor long." Some said, "Al-'Um is the old one," and others said, "The tall one." The Sheikh said, "It has been narrated from Muhammad bin Ishaq bin Yasar that he said, 'Al-'Um is the youth.'"
