Purchasing Taxidermied Animals for Educational or Decorative Purposes

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner asks: What is the ruling on purchasing taxidermied animals for the purpose of education or for decoration?

Answer:
It is not permissible, because this involves keeping carrion, as a taxidermied animal is carrion, and carrion is ritually impure.
