by leaving the eating, so it does not undermine its training, unlike the dog and the leopard. As for the report, it is not sound; it is narrated by Mujalid, and he is weak. Ahmad said: Mujalid makes the story into one, and how many marvels are there from Mujalid. The sound reports contradict him, and analogy of birds to predatory beasts is not valid due to the difference between them. If this is established, then every bird of prey that can be trained and hunted with, such as the falcon, the hawk, the peregrine, and the eagle, its hunting is lawful based on what we have mentioned.

The evidence for the prohibition of keeping it is the saying of the Prophet - may Allah bless him and grant him peace -: "Kill every solid black one among them." Narrated by Sa'ir and others. And Muslim narrated in his "Sahih" with his chain from Abdullah ibn al-Mughaffal, who said: The Messenger of Allah - may Allah bless him and grant him peace - ordered us to kill
