Hunting with a slingshot when ritual slaughter is not possible

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is hunting with a slingshot permissible if one is unable to perform the ritual slaughter?

Answer:
This is a settled matter. Hunting with a slingshot is a settled matter, because the stone of the slingshot is weighted; it kills by its weight, not by its sharpness.
