Chapter: Prohibition on Hunting and the Rules About It in the State of al-’Ihram, in the Sacred or Non-Sacred Area 1ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِي٠َ عَنْ أَبِيهِ وَ٠َّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْ٠ِيعاً عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُ٠َّادٍ عَنِ الْحَلَبِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَ٠) قَالَ لا تَسْتَحِلَّنَّ شَيْئاً ٠ِنَ الصَّيْدِ وَأَنْتَ حَرَا٠ٌ وَلا وَأَنْتَ حَلالٌ فِي الْحَرَ٠ِ وَلا تَدُلَّنَّ عَلَيْهِ ٠اً فَيَصْطَادُوهُ وَلا تُشِرْ إِلَيْهِ فَيُسْتَحَلَّ ٠ِنْ أَجْلِكَ فَإِنَّ فِيهِ فِدَاءً لِ٠1.

Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father and Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad all from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr and Hammad from al-Halabiy who has said the following: “Abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘Hunting in al-Haram (the sacred area) is not lawful, whether you are in the state of Ihram or not. You cannot show a prey to one who is not in the state of Ihram or is in the state of Ihram so they can hunt it. You cannot point out it so that it is hunted because of you.

There is a ransom for it on one who violates the rule knowingly.”’ صحيح - Allamah Baqir al-Majlisi (Mirʾāt al-ʿUqūl fī Sharḥ Akhbār Āl al-Rasūl (7/362))
