Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: If the hunter forgets to mention the name of Allah when shooting with a bullet, is this game permissible?

Answer:
No, it is not permissible, because the conditions must be met, which is to mention the name of Allah when releasing the arrow. If he forgets it, it is not permissible. Some scholars say it is permissible, like a slaughtered animal if one forgets to mention the name of Allah over it, then it is lawful. They say it is the same. No, the game is not like the slaughtered animal. The game is a dispensation (rukhsah), and one must be more cautious with it than with the slaughtered animal. Yes.
