The ruling on keeping birds until they died from the heat

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner, O Shaykh Abu Sa'd, says: A friend of mine has many birds. He kept them in a box or a crate during these days, and they died from the intense heat and thirst. Does he commit a sin? And does he owe an expiation?

Answer:
There is no doubt that he commits a sin. He must repent to Allah, feel remorse for what happened, and not return to such an act. Yes.
