Killing Harmful Monkeys
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Fatwa No. ( 9167 )
Q: We have been afflicted by drought in these recent years to a degree we have never seen before, which led wild animals to attack our farms, including monkeys. This forced us to kill a group of them, and since that moment I have been pained by the sight. Please advise us, may Allah reward you with good: Am I required to
pay an expiation or something else? Knowing that they had destroyed our farms. May Allah reward you with good and reward.
A : If the matter is as you described, there is no expiation on you for killing the harmful monkeys. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
