Malik said of a small child and a non-Arab who does not speak clearly: if they are stolen from their protected place or lock, the one who stole them owes the cutting. If they leave their protected place and lock, the one who stole them owes no cutting; they are like the game of the mountain and the fruit on the palm. 1
