3066. It was narrated from Abyaḍ bin Ḥammāl that he asked the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ about protected land containing Arāk trees, and the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "There is no ownership of Arāk trees." He said: "There are Arāk trees within its boundaries." The Prophet ﷺ said: "There is no ownership of Arāk trees." (Da'if)
3066 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ الْقُرَشِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ، حَدَّثَنَا فَرَجُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنِي عَمِّي ثَابِتُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ أَبْيَضَ بْنِ حَمَّالٍ، أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ حِمَى الْأَرَاكِ؟، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَا حِمَى فِي الْأَرَاكِ» فَقَالَ: أَرَاكَةٌ فِي حِظَارِي، فَقَالَ: النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَا حِمَى فِي الْأَرَاكِ» قَالَ فَرَجٌ: «يَعْنِي بِحِظَارِي الْأَرْضَ الَّتِي فِيهَا الزَّرْعُ الْمُحَاطُ عَلَيْهَا»

Even if a certain neglected piece of land has either been granted to a person by the Islamic government, or the said person has himself taken and cultivated it, the trees, if any, standing in the land from before, shall not be the exclusive property of the man in question, in the sense that he cannot deprive the common people of their right of access to those trees.
