Killing the black cat

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And likewise, may Allah preserve him, he asks: Is it permissible to kill the black cat?

Answer:
No. Nothing has been reported regarding killing it, except if it harms. If it harms and its harm cannot be repelled except by killing it, then it is killed. Yes.
