Man Lā Yaḥḍuruh al-Faqīh|Volume 2|Book 3|Chapter 2
وَ سَأَلَهُ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ: عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يَقْطَعُ مِنَ اَلْأَرَاكِ اَلَّذِي بِمَكَّةَ قَالَ «عَلَيْهِ ثَمَنُهُ يَتَصَدَّقُ بِهِ وَ لاَ يَنْزِعُ مِنْ شَجَرِ مَكَّةَ شَيْئاً إِلاَّ اَلنَّخْلَ وَ شَجَرَ اَلْفَوَاكِهِ».
Sulaiman ibn Khalid asked him (Abu Abdullah عليه السلام) about a man who cuts from the arak tree in Mecca. Imam عليه السلام replied: "He must pay its value as charity, and no one should remove anything from the trees of Mecca except for palm trees and fruit trees."
