Killing of Certain Animals in the Sanctuary

SUMMARY: Killing of certain animals is allowed in the sanctuary.

It was narrated from Urwah that Aishah said: "The Messenger of Allah said: "There are five animals all of which are vermin and may be killed inside the sanctuary: Crow, kites, vicious dogs, mice and scorpions'."
أَخْبَرَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الأَعْلَى، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي يُونُسُ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏ "‏ خَمْسٌ مِنَ الدَّوَابِّ كُلُّهَا فَاسِقٌ يُقْتَلْنَ فِي الْحَرَمِ الْغُرَابُ وَالْحِدَأَةُ وَالْكَلْبُ الْعَقُورُ وَالْفَأْرَةُ وَالْعَقْرَبُ

EXPLANATIONS:
The hadith narrated by Urwah and Aishah states that there are five animals which are considered vermin and can be killed inside a sanctuary. These animals include crows, kites, vicious dogs, mice and scorpions. This means that it is permissible to kill these creatures if they enter a holy place such as a mosque or other sacred area. It also serves as a reminder to us that we should take care not to harm any living creature unnecessarily, even if it is considered vermin or an annoyance. We should also remember that all creatures have been created by Allah and so we must respect them accordingly.

The hadith also teaches us about the importance of respecting sanctuaries as places where we can go for peace and tranquility away from worldly distractions. We should strive to keep these places clean from any kind of disturbance or nuisance caused by animals or other sources so that people can benefit from their spiritual experience without interruption.
