Narrated by Sayyiduna Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The enclosure of a well will be forty cubits from all sides; this space will be for camels and goats to sit. The first person to drink from such a well will be a traveler, and surplus water should not be withheld for the purpose of preventing others from using the grass through it.
