حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ أَخْبَرَنَا أَيُّوبُ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ قَالَ رَجُلٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا نَقْتُلُ مِنْ الدَّوَابِّ إِذَا أَحْرَمْنَا فَقَالَ خَمْسٌ لَا جُنَاحَ عَلَى مَنْ قَتَلَهُنَّ فِي قَتْلِهِنَّ الْحِدَأَةُ وَالْفَأْرَةُ وَالْغُرَابُ وَالْعَقْرَبُ وَالْكَلْبُ الْعَقُورُ
مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 5091
It was narrated that Ibn Umar said: A man said: O Messenger of Allah, what animals may we kill when we are in ihram? He said: "There are five for which there is no sin on the one who kills them (when in ihram): kites, rats, crows, scorpions and vicious dogs."
