Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Some children have what is called a slingshot. Is it permissible to use what they hunt with?
Answer:
No, this is a heavy object. If a person is fasting and he catches it alive and slaughters it ritually, it is lawful. But if it dies from the impact of the slingshot, it is forbidden, because it was killed by a heavy object. A stone is a heavy object.
