Q:
1. If the hunting dog catches and kills the prey, is it halaal to consume? Will zabah have to be made if so?
2. In hunting if the animal is killed with just the force of the arrow, is that animal halaal? If so, will zabah have to be made?
3. Is the use of shot guns/ hunting rifles permissible?
A:
1. If all the conditions of hunting are found then the prey will be halaal.
2. If the arrow had a pointed edge and the edge had killed the prey then it will be halaal.
3. To the best of our understanding, the edge of the bullets that are used are not sharp enough. Hence, the prey cannot be halaal.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
