The Source of Compensation in Racing and the Restriction of Racing Equipment

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, if the cause must be that the compensation comes from one of the parties or from a third party, as the author stated. All the evidence regarding the specification of types of causes, so we can establish compensation for all types. If we do that based on the concept of *ju'alah* (reward for a specific task), it is permissible. So here, it would not be a minor point in specifying that the author's statement is not the fourth, and where is it possible in what the one who said it said?

Answer:
No, the author based his argument on evidence, which is the restriction.
No stake is acceptable except in archery, racing a camel, and racing a horse.لا سبق إلا في نصل أو خف أو حافر
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 1700Hasan (Darussalam)
The author is stronger because he based it on evidence, whereas Ibn al-Qayyim (may Allah have mercy on him) based it on analogy or on juristic preference in his statement.
