Getting rid of the dogs spreading near the houses
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The Shaykh, in our village there are dogs on a mountain near our house and in al-Ajman, and they are multiplying there, so perhaps we must get rid of them.
Answer:
The one that causes harm is killed; the one that causes harm among the dogs is killed. What is forbidden is killing those that do not cause harm. The one that does not cause harm, it is not permissible to kill it. But if harm comes from them and this harm cannot be averted except by killing them, then they are killed.
