The ruling on running over a cat with a car inside the Haram

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: I ran over a cat with my car inside the Haram unintentionally, and I did not know about it until after I had passed it. Is there anything required of me?

Answer:
There is nothing required of you, as long as there is no penalty involved and no expiation is due. There is no penalty or expiation for a cat. However, if you did it intentionally, you have committed a sin, and if you did not do it intentionally, no sin is upon you. Yes.
