EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith explains that there are five animals that should be killed when one is in a state of Ihram or otherwise. These animals are snakes, speckled crows, rats, voracious dogs and kites. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ taught us to kill these creatures as they can cause harm to people and their property. It is important for Muslims to remember this teaching when they go on pilgrimage ('Umrah). They must take care not to harm any other creature while slaughtering these harmful ones.
