3634. It was narrated from Al-A'raj that Abū Hurairah said: "The Messenger of Allāh صلى الله عليه وسلم said: 'If one of you asks his brother for permission to fix a piece of wood to his wall, he should not prevent him.'" They (those who were listening to Abū Hurairah) lowered their heads and he said: "Why do I see you paying no attention to this Hadīth? I shall most certainly keep reminding you of it." (Ṣaḥīḥ)

3634 - حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، وَابْنُ أَبِي خَلَفٍ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، عَنِ الْأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِذَا اسْتَأْذَنَ أَحَدُكُمْ أَخَاهُ، أَنْ يَغْرِزَ خَشَبَةً فِي جِدَارِهِ، فَلَا يَمْنَعُهُ» فَنَكَّسُوا، فَقَالَ: «مَا لِي أَرَاكُمْ قَدْ أَعْرَضْتُمْ؟ لَأُلْقِيَنَّهَا بَيْنَ أَكْتَافِكُمْ»، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: وَهَذَا حَدِيثُ ابْنُ أَبِي خَلَفٍ وَهُوَ أَتَمُّ

Commentary

It is one of the basic and essential rights of a neighbor, that if it is not harmful and damaging for his own property, one should allow his neighbor to use his wall for construction.
