The ruling on embalming animals and placing them in the home

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Is embalming animals and placing them in the home included among the forbidden statues?

Answer:
This is not permissible, because these are impure carcasses. It is not permissible to touch them, nor is it permissible to place them in the home. They are impure carcasses.
