Prohibition of Domestic Donkeys and Permissibility of Hunting Wild Donkeys

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
This questioner says: Do domestic donkeys mean those that are tamed among people? Donkeys

The Shaykh:
Domesticated donkeys are the opposite of wild donkeys. Wild donkeys are lawful game, and domesticated donkeys are those that live with people, whom they ride and load, meaning they are tamed and not wild. Yes.

The questioner:
May Allah reward you. In his question, he asks: And regarding wild donkeys, do they revert to their original state and thus become forbidden?

The Shaykh:
No, wild ones are lawful, lawful by the saying of Allah the Exalted: "Forbidden to you while you are in the state of ihram is the game of the land"
O you who have believed, do not kill game while you are in the state of ihram.يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَا تَقْتُلُوا الصَّيْدَ وَأَنتُمْ حُرُمٌ
[Al-Ma'idah 5:95]
The land refers to the game of the land, whereas the sea is lawful for the one in ihram and for the one not in ihram to hunt. Yes.
