Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The fig tree is no different from other trees, and it is permissible to remove it from the house without embarrassment or harm, as there is no prohibition against this in the of the Prophet or the sayings of the Companions. A Muslim must know that Allah alone brings good deeds and repels evil deeds, and He alone possesses harm and benefit. False beliefs must be avoided.
