The Ruling on Hunting in the Sacred Precinct and Leaving Children to Chase the Pigeons
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: What is the ruling on hunting in the Sacred Precinct? And is it permissible to leave children chasing the pigeons of the Sacred Precinct?
Answer:
It is not permissible. Their guardian must restrain them. Their guardian must restrain them. This is an aggression against the game of the Sacred Precinct. Yes. Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. In the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), the Sacred Precinct is such that its game is driven away. It is driven away merely by being scared off, so what about the one who kills it and hunts it?! This is forbidden.
