حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَفْصٍ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْقَطَّانُ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي خَارِجَةُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ الْجُهَنِيُّ، أَخْبَرَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ ‏ "‏ لاَ يُخْبَطُ وَلاَ يُعْضَدُ حِمَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ وَلَكِنْ يُهَشُّ هَشًّا رَفِيقًا

This hadith teaches us the importance of respecting nature. The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) taught us to be gentle and respectful when dealing with nature, specifically trees.

This hadith shows us that even though it is permissible to use resources from nature, we must do so in a way that respects its sanctity and preserves its beauty. We must remember that all things are created by Allah and therefore deserve our respect and care.
