Q 3:
The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) forbade the killing of four creatures: the ant, the bee, the hoopoe and the Sard.
What is meant by the "Sard"?
A:
Imam Ahmad narrated in his Musnad and
Abu Dawud in his Sunan
on the authority of
Ibn `Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both)
The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) forbade the killing of four creatures: the ant, the bee, the hoopoe and the Sard.
Al-Suyuty classed it as Hadith Hasan (a Hadith whose chain of narration contains a narrator with weak exactitude, but is free from eccentricity or blemish) in his Al-Jami` Al-Saghir. A Sard is a type of bird slightly larger than a sparrow, i.e. Sparrow hawk.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
