'Whoever transgresses after that.' Al-Hasan said: He says: Whoever transgresses after the prohibition and hunts while in the state of Ihram, then he shall have a painful punishment.

And if he kills it intentionally while mindful of his state of Ihram, then he shall have a painful punishment, and there is no penalty upon him.
