The Ruling on Killing a Harmful Black Dog

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: There is a black dog in front of our house, and when night comes it starts barking while we are sleeping, disturbing us and waking us up. Is it permissible for us to kill it?

Answer:
Drive it away. When it comes to killing, drive it away; let it go. Yes, even if you hit it or, I mean, do something to scare it off. Do something to drive it away so it stays away from you. Yes.
