The Sale of Predatory Animals, Such as the Lion

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prohibited the price of a dog. Is it permissible to sell predators, such as lions and other wild beasts?

Answer:
No, they are all dogs; they are all called dogs. Predatory animals are even more deserving of the prohibition on their sale. Yes.
