Chapter on Reports Regarding One Who Digs a Well or Something Else in His Own Property or in Another's Property, and a Person Falls Into it and Perishes
وَ رَوَى حَمَّادٌ عَنِ اَلْحَلَبِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: أَنَّهُ سُئِلَ عَنِ اَلشَّيْءِ يُوضَعُ عَلَى اَلطَّرِيقِ فَتَمُرُّ بِهِ اَلدَّابَّةُ فَتَنْفِرُ بِصَاحِبِهَا فَتَعْقِرُهُ قَالَ "كُلُّ شَيْءٍ يُضِرُّ بِطَرِيقِ اَلْمُسْلِمِينَ فَصَاحِبُهُ ضَامِنٌ لِمَا يُصِيبُهُ".
Hammad narrated from Al-Halabi, who narrated from Abu Abdullah عليه السلام that he was asked about an object placed on the road, and an animal passes by it, becomes startled, and injures its rider. Imam عليه السلام said: "Anything that causes harm on the path of the Muslims, its owner is liable for whatever results from it."
