Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: It is known that if the mangonel is used, it results in the general killing of men, women, and children.
Answer:
There is no harm. Use the mangonel and the destroyers when there is a need, if fighting the disbelievers is not possible except by that means. They are used out of dire necessity. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used the mangonel in the Battle of Ta'if and struck them. Yes.
