Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: What is the ruling on killing ants within the boundaries of the Haram?

Answer:
The harmful one is killed in the Haram and elsewhere. The harmful one is killed if its harm cannot be repelled except by killing it. As for the one that is not harmful, it is not killed. Yes.
