A person in ihram has both carrion and game available; which takes precedence?

Question : Absolutely. Now, if we have both carrion and game, do we say all the game and the eight [camels], or do we say all the carrion and another [sacrifice]?

Answer : What do you say about it? It is not a person in ihram. He has both carrion and game. There is scholarly disagreement on this: some scholars say the game takes precedence, and some say the carrion takes precedence. The correct view is that the game takes precedence, because the game is good, and it is forbidden only out of respect for it. The carrion, however, is impure, and it is forbidden because of its impurity. So the correct view is that the game takes precedence. Yes.
