Note 219 — THE LOVES OF ABU ISA AND KURRAT AL-AYN.

Within the Hudúd al-Haram (bounds of the Holy Places), at Al-Medinah as well as Meccah, all “Muharramát” (forbidden sins) are doubly unlawful, such as drinking spirits, immoral life, etc. The Imam Malik forbids slaying animals without, however, specifying any penalty. The felling of trees is a disputed point; and no man can be put to death except invaders, infidels and desecraters (Pilgrimage ii. 167).
