What is the ruling on raising sheep of good breed, washing them, and selling them at high prices?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Some people raise sheep of good breed, wash and clean them, hold a special market for them, and sell them at high prices. Is that permissible?

Answer:
This is not permissible. This is extravagance and waste and squandering, so this exaggeration and the depletion of wealth in such matters is not permissible. And these races are forbidden; racing for them and taking prizes for them is forbidden. It is consuming wealth in vain. Yes.
