Commentary
Killing a harmful animal in the state of Ihrâm is allowed.
They may be killed even within the boundaries of the Harâm.
Crow here means the one whose part of body (stomach and the like) is white.
Vicious dog means the one who attacks the passers-by.
The same rule applies to a tiger and leopard, since they are dangerous for the lives of the travelers.
