Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh Abu Hatim, may Allah grant you success. It has been stated that it is not permissible to sell a dog, but if someone kills a dog in the fields or in the land, what is required of him and what does he do for the owner of the dog?
Answer:
It is of no benefit, but the one in authority should impose a discretionary punishment on him, because this is an encroachment on the rights of people. It is permissible to encroach on the rights of people, so the one in authority imposes on him whatever discretionary punishment he deems appropriate. Yes.
