What is the liability for damage caused by a projection extending over a private, non-thoroughfare path without permission?
General Chapter
Al-Mughni
Book of Blood-Money (Diyyāt)
Primary text
If a projection is extended into a private path that is not a thoroughfare without the permission of its owners, the extender is liable for the damage caused. If the extension is made with their permission, no liability is due because the action is permissible and not a transgression.
