Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible to benefit from a pledge, if one takes a pledge from someone who borrowed from me?

Answer:
No, it is not permissible to benefit from a pledge unless you count it toward the debt, except if the pledge requires maintenance, such as a beast that needs maintenance; if you spend on it and then benefit from it in return for what you spent, there is no harm. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
and the animal may be ridden for payment when it is pledgeالظهر يركب بنفقته إذا كان مرهونا
Sunan Abi Dawud 3526Sahih (Al-Albani)
The milk of milch camels may be drunk for payment when in pledgeولبن الدر يحلب بنفقته إذا كان مرهونا. نعم.
Sunan Abi Dawud 3526Sahih (Al-Albani)
If it is not.إذا لم يكن.
the milk of the milch animal can be drunk according to what one spend on itيشرب بنفقته إذا كان مرهونا.
Sahih al-Bukhari 2512
Yes.
