Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: Some Hanbali scholars stated that there is no harm in selling a cheetah because it hunts; is this correct, or is it to be analogized to a dog?
Answer:
It is a dog, it is a hunting dog, so it is not permissible to sell it. The dog also hunts; the operative cause is not that it hunts, the operative cause is that it is a dog, so it is not permissible to sell it. Yes.
