2300. It was narrated from Abu Sa'eed that the Prophet ﷺ said: "When you come to a shepherd, call him three times. If he answers (all well and good), otherwise drink (milk from the flock) without taking advantage. And when you come to a garden, call the owner of the garden three times. If he answers (all well and good), otherwise eat (from the produce of the garden) without taking advantage." (Da'if)
2300 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا الْجُرَيْرِيُّ، عَنْ أَبِي نَضْرَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: «إِذَا أَتَيْتَ عَلَى رَاعٍ، فَنَادِهِ ثَلَاثَ مِرَارٍ، فَإِنْ أَجَابَكَ، وَإِلَّا فَاشْرَبْ فِي غَيْرِ أَنْ تُفْسِدَ، وَإِذَا أَتَيْتَ عَلَى حَائِطِ بُسْتَانٍ، فَنَادِ صَاحِبَ الْبُسْتَانِ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ، فَإِنْ أَجَابَكَ، وَإِلَّا فَكُلْ فِي أَنْ لَا تُفْسِدَ»

It is not allowed to use anything from someone's field, orchard or herd without securing the permission of the owner. If the owner is not present, then one should try his best to call out loud for the owner to seek his/her permission. If the owner is not found, despite calling loud three times; then the fruit or milk may be used without the permission of the owner in extreme circumstances. This permission is limited; this permission may be taken as an advantage only to meet the current need. The advantage of this limited permission is to be used only when getting food through other legal means becomes almost impossible.
