حدثنا جعفر بن محمد، قال: حدثنا محمد بن نصر بن سعيد، قال: حدثنا حسان قال في رجل له أرض: فبنى ناسٌ حولها دورًا فجعلوا ميازيب دورهم، ومجرى ماء دورهم من السماء وغير ذلك إلى تلك الأرض، والرجل شاهد لا يغير ولا ينكر، ثم أراد أن يبني على أرضه تلك دارًا أو يتخذها بستانًا فمنعه الجيران فقالوا: هي مستنقع ماء دورنا وقد كنت شاهدًا لا تغير ولا تنكر، أو كان غائبًا أو كانت الأرض لغيره على تلك الحال قبل ذلك فاشتراها أو ورثها، قال حسان: قال أبو حنيفة وسفيان: ليس لهم في أرض الرجل مسيل ماء ولا مجرى ميزاب ولا غيره، وله أن يحولوا ذلك عنه إذا أحب، وإن كانوا صنعوا هذا بأرض وهي لغيره بغير حق كان لهم في الأرض يوم صنعوه، فله أن يحول ذلك كله عنه.

Related to us: Jaʿfar ibn Muḥammad; he said: related to us: Muḥammad ibn Naṣr ibn Saʿīd; he said: related to us: Ḥassān, who spoke: Concerning a man who owns land, around which people build houses, directing their roof gutters and the runoff of rainwater and other water from their houses onto that land, while the man is present and neither changes nor objects to it. He then wishes to build a house on his land or make it a garden, but the neighbours prevent him, saying: “It is the collecting place for our houses’ water, and you were present without changing or objecting.” Or he was absent, or the land previously belonged to someone else in that condition and he bought or inherited it. Ḥassān said: Abū Ḥanīfa and Sufyān said: “They have no right of drainage, gutter flow or anything else over the man’s land. He may have that diverted away from it whenever he wishes. Even if they did this on land belonging to someone else without any right they held over the land when they did it, he may have all of it diverted away from it.”
The printed switch of grammatical person in “he may have them divert” is expressed as causation; no drainage right is inserted into the negative condition.
