The questioner:
What is the ruling, Shaykh, on the embalming of birds?
The Shaykh:
This is nonsense and falls under keeping corpses, because these embalmed items are dead bodies. It is not permissible to keep them except for a valid purpose, as is the case with doctors and anatomists
The presenter:
so that they may benefit from them.
The Shaykh:
Yes.
