The Ruling on Killing a Spider

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: What is the ruling on killing a spider?

Answer:
There is no need to kill a spider. It does not harm, and it is not permissible to kill insects or animals except those that are harmful. The harmful ones are killed, but those that are not harmful are not killed.
