The original ruling permits construction on private lands, but this ruling may change for the public interest. If the leveling of agricultural lands for construction leads to a decrease in crops that harms people, then the ruler must prevent it, and obedience to him is obligatory based on the : "There should be neither harm nor reciprocal harm."
