If a boy hunts in the Haram, is there anything required of him?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : And the issue of transgressing in the Haram must be prevented, but outside the Haram, if we say that a boy is not bound by the obligations of what is forbidden, then he is not bound.

The Shaykh : What? Inside the Haram, yes. As for hunting, it is prevented; it is obligatory. If the boy has no choice, then he owes nothing. If he has a choice, it may be said that he is bound by the trial of hunting because it is possible to prevent him. It may also be said that he is not bound, because this boy is not of the age of accountability, according to the position we hold to be stronger. However, according to the school of thought, it is obligatory in all cases.
