Question:
May Allah reward you. He says: What is lawful hunting, and are there some animals and birds that it is not permissible to hunt? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
Yes. The default ruling for birds and animals is that they are lawful, except for what evidence indicates is forbidden. It is forbidden to hunt any bird that has a talon with which it preys, which are called the birds of prey. It is forbidden to hunt any animal that has a fang with which it preys, as stated in the hadith:Sunan an-Nasa'i 4348 And.
It is also forbidden to hunt birds that the Lawgiver has prohibited killing, such as the vulture and the crow. What the Lawgiver prohibited killing, or ordered to be killed. The Lawgiver ordered the killing of the vulture and the crow among birds because they are harmful, and prohibited killing the hoopoe and the kite. So what the Lawgiver ordered means there are three types: the one that preys with its talon, which is the first; the second is what is abominable and eats carrion, like the eagle and others; the third is what the Lawgiver ordered to be killed or prohibited from being killed. Everything else is lawful. Yes.
