The ruling on slaughtering stolen property and the difference between that and the slaughter of a person in ihram of game

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Now, what if he slaughters something that was stolen, having stolen it and then slaughtered it?

The Shaykh : Yes. Hmm? So the slaughter is lawful and pure. The difference between this and the game of a person in ihram is that regarding the game, the person in ihram is specifically prohibited from killing it. For this reason, Allah referred to it as "killing," even if it was a lawful slaughter. Because although this becomes a lawful slaughter in reality, it is in truth a killing, for it does not make the game lawful to eat. As for slaughtering stolen property, it was not specifically prohibited; rather, what was prohibited was destroying stolen property by any means.
