Spending on a Found Animal and Benefiting from Its Milk

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The Shaykh found that if a man takes an animal that does not resist being used and is not aware of it, does he spend on it and take its produce to the extent of what he spends on it?

The Shaykh:
If he takes what?

The questioner:
If a man takes an animal, let him refrain from using it for himself.

The Shaykh:
It does not resist, yes, that is correct.

The questioner:
And it does not endure, does he have ownership over it and take its milk to the extent of what he spends on it until its owner comes and gives it to him?

The Shaykh:
Yes, it is permissible for him to feed the sheep and milk it; there is no contradiction. He feeds the sheep and milks it; there is no contradiction. There is no harm. Yes. The offspring follows the offspring, the offspring follows the original, the offspring follows the original. It follows the original, yes.
