The prohibition of cornering animals in order to kill them (for sport)
I visited the house of al-Hakam bin Ayyub along with my grandfather Anas bin Malik رضی اللہ عنہ , (and there) some people had made a hen a target and were shooting arrows at her. Thereupon Anas رضی اللہ عنہ said that Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) had forbidden tying of the animals (and making them the targets of arrows, etc.).
