I think this is a magnolia, if I'm remembering correctly. I've never been that into flowers to know exactly what each is by sight, LOL.

Lotus Flower


Concerning the Lotus Tree

...Shaykh al-Albaani classed some of these ahaadeeth as hasan, such as the following:

1 – It was narrated that ‘Aa’ishah (may Allaah be pleased with her) said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Those who cut down lotus trees will be thrown headfirst into Hellfire.”

Narrated by al-Bayhaqi, 6/140; classed as hasan by al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Jaami’, 1696.

2 – It was narrated from Mu’aawiyah ibn Jaydah that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “The one who cuts down a lotus tree, Allaah will throw him headfirst into Hellfire.”

Narrated by al-Bayhaqi, 6/141; classed as hasan by Shaykh al-Albaani in al-Silsilah al-Saheehah, 615.

He said – following the hadeeth quoted above:

Abu Dawood interpreted it by saying: this hadeeth is concise, and is what it means is that whoever cuts down a lotus tree in the open desert that wayfarers and animals use for shade, merely for sport and to wrong others unlawfully, then Allaah will throw him headfirst into Hellfire.

Al-Tahhaawi was of the view that this is abrogated, and he quoted as evidence the fact that it was narrated that ‘Urwah ibn al-Zubayr – one of the narrators of this hadeeth – cut down a lotus tree.

I say: the most likely interpretation in my view is that this applies only to cutting down the lotus trees in the Haram, as is explained by the comment added by al-Tabaraani to the hadeeth of ‘Abd-Allaah ibn Habashi: “i.e., the lotus trees of the Haram.” This dispels any confusion; praise be to Allaah.

Then I learned that al-Suyooti had reached this conclusion before me, in his essay Raf’ al-Hadhr fi Qat’ al-Sidr (Dispelling confusion concerning the prohibition on cutting down of lotus trees) (al-Haawi li’l-Fataawi, vol. 2, p. 212). Those who wish to learn more may refer to this essay, in which other isnaads of the hadeeth are mentioned.

In conclusion: the ahaadeeth which forbid the cutting down of lotus trees are either da’eef (weak) hadeeths which are not valid, or they are hasan and may be interpreted as referring to two things:

1 – cutting down lotus trees that people use for shade, for sport and for no useful purpose.

2 – Cutting down the lotus trees in the Haram.

Based on this, there is no sin on you if you cut down this tree that you had planted, so long as you did not plant it by the road for people to use for shade.

And Allaah knows best.
