حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَی حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ أَنْبَأَنَا الْجُرَيْرِيُّ عَنْ أَبِي نَضْرَةَ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ إِذَا أَتَيْتَ عَلَی رَاعٍ فَنَادِهِ ثَلَاثَ مِرَارٍ فَإِنْ أَجَابَکَ وَإِلَّا فَاشْرَبْ فِي غَيْرِ أَنْ تُفْسِدَ وَإِذَا أَتَيْتَ عَلَی حَائِطِ بُسْتَانٍ فَنَادِ صَاحِبَ الْبُسْتَانِ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ فَإِنْ أَجَابَکَ وَإِلَّا فَکُلْ فِي أَنْ لَا تُفْسِدَ
ابن ماجہ · Hadith 2300
It was narrated from Abu Sa'eed that the Prophet P.B.U.H said: "When you come to a shepherd, call him three times. If he answers (all well and good), otherwise drink (milk from the flock) WIthout taking advantage. And when you come to a garden, call the owner of the garden three times. If he answers (all well and good), otherwise eat (from the produce of the garden) without taking advantage." (Da'if)
