The Ruling on Hunting Land Animals in the Sacred Months
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you with good. What is the ruling on hunting land animals in the sacred months? What is the way to do that? Or is hunting land animals not forbidden for a person in the state of ihram?
Answer:
Good. Allah the Exalted said:[Al-Ma'idah 5:95]. Likewise, it is forbidden to kill the game of the Haram, whether by a person in ihram or by anyone else.
Killing the game of the Haram refers to what is within the miles adjacent to Makkah and Madinah, specifically what is adjacent to Makkah. This is not permissible because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade driving out its game or killing it, meaning the game of the Noble Sanctuary of Makkah. Good. And the game of the Haram in the Noble Sanctuary of Makkah is forbidden for the person in ihram and for anyone else. As for game outside the Haram, it is forbidden specifically for the person in ihram, and it is lawful for others in the sacred months and in other times. Yes.
