Hadith 1030
وعن البراء بن عازب رضي الله عنه قال : قضى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم أن حفظ الحوائط بالنهار على أهلها وأن حفظ الماشية بالليل على أهلها وأن على أهل الماشية ما أصابت ماشيتهم بالليل. رواه أحمد والأربعة إلا الترمذي وصححه ابن حبان وفي إسناده اختلاف.
Al-Bara bin 'Azib (RAA) narrated, ‘The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) ordained that the guarding of a garden is the responsibility of its owners during the day and the guarding of animals is the responsibility of their owners at night. However, the owners of the animals are responsible for any damage caused by their animals during the night (i.e. pay compensation for what they damaged of other’s property).’ Related by Ahmad and the four Imams except At-Tirmidhi. Ibn Hibban graded it as Sahih.
