Sunan Abu Dawud 3477 — Regarding Withholding Water
حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْجَعْدِ اللُّؤْلُئِيُّ ، أَخْبَرَنَا حَرِيزُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ ، عَنْ حِبَّانَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ الشَّرْعَبِيِّ ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ قَرْنٍ . ح ، حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَرِيزُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خِدَاشٍ ، وَهَذَا لَفْظُ عَلِيٍّ ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنِ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : غَزَوْتُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ثَلَاثًا ، أَسْمَعُهُ يَقُولُ : " الْمُسْلِمُونَ شُرَكَاءُ فِي ثَلَاثٍ : فِي الْكَلَإِ ، وَالْمَاءِ ، وَالنَّار " .
Narrated A man: A man from the immigrants of the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ said: I participated in battle three times along with the Prophet ﷺ. I heard him say: Muslims have common share in three (things). grass, water and fire.
Explanation & Benefits
Shaykh Umar Farooq Saeedi
Benefits and Issues:
Benefit:
When grass and water are naturally found in public pastures and deserts, it is not permissible for anyone to take exclusive possession and prevent others from benefiting from them.
Similarly, if someone takes a burning coal from a fire or kindles a fire from it, it is not allowed to prevent them from doing so.
