Killing the Harmful Among Dogs
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The first question of Fatwa No. ( 8303 )
Q 1: I have a farm in my village, and I cultivate it with vegetables, grains, and alfalfa. However, I observe significant destruction in the farm every morning. I found that the dogs in the valley are the ones destroying the crops. I tried repeatedly to protect the crops but was unable to do so. Consequently, I was forced to kill five of the dogs to prevent the harm to my crops. Do I bear any sin for killing them, and what should I do?
A 1 : If the situation is as described, there is no blame on you for that. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
