Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Shaykh, regarding the frog, you know that there is a prohibition against killing it; is it eaten?

The Shaykh: No.

The questioner : Okay; is there evidence that it is not permissible to eat it?

The Shaykh : Killing.

The questioner : Regarding killing...

The Shaykh : It is prohibited to kill...

The questioner : Okay; Shaykh, regarding locusts.

The Shaykh : ...regarding?

The questioner : Regarding locusts.

The Shaykh : Locusts.

The questioner : Meaning, it is prohibited to kill them! And
It was made permissible أُحِلَّت
?

The Shaykh: Yes.

Another questioner : The text:
Two dead things were made permissible for us أُحِلَّت لنا مَيْتتان
.

The Shaykh : Was its permissibility derived from the prohibition of killing it, from the text prohibiting its killing, or from something else?

The questioner : It was found dead.

The Shaykh : Yes.

Another questioner : From another text.

The questioner : Meaning:
Two dead things were made permissible أُحِلَّ مَيْتتان
, or it was found dead.

The Shaykh : Why are you answering the question with C and J?

The questioner : C, we need C.

The Shaykh : I am saying: Was its eating made permissible by the prohibition of killing it, or by something else?

The questioner : From something else... they deceived me.

The Shaykh : This is the answer, this is the answer; in that caseThe questioner : The first question: If he sees a need, he asks: What is this other thing? He asks, and he did ask, what is the other thing?

The questioner : The text:
Two dead things were made permissible for us أُحِلَّت لنا مَيْتتان
.

The Shaykh : Okay; is there then a difference between the prohibition of killing it and the permissibility of eating it?

The questioner : There is not!

The Shaykh : Okay; is it valid to extend this ruling to that which is prohibited to be killed, but for which no text has come regarding its eating?

The questioner : It is not authentic.

The Shaykh : That is it.
