The hadith states: (He forbade eating any carnivorous beast with fangs). Is it said that the saliva of any animal whose meat is not eaten is impure?

The questioner : All right, -our Shaykh- there is a hadith: Sunan ad-Darimi 6:38 Regarding the beasts of prey, their impurity and the impurity of their saliva are mentioned in independent texts. As for every bird with talons, does this mean every bird with talons—first of all—birds of prey?
The Shaykh : Yes! Yes.
The questioner : That is the first point. From another angle, our Shaykh, does this mean the impurity of the meat and the saliva of every bird with talons?
The Shaykh : You asked me about the saliva—I think—when we were entering the mosque on Friday.
The questioner : May Allah strengthen you, -our Shaykh- and preserve you, and increase your memory. I do not say: preserve it only!
The Shaykh : May Allah preserve you.
The questioner : Yes, good.
The Shaykh : And I told you: I do not have an answer for this issue, and I am still in that negative stance.
The questioner : Yes! Yes, all right, -our Shaykh, may Allah honor you- if we said that the dung of an animal whose meat is not eaten is impure; is it said here that its saliva is also impure?
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : Meaning, is it said?
The Shaykh : It is said, but this is said in principle. As for the issue, you know, in issues that fall under the general rule and issues that do not; so that we may be informed, we sometimes pause; so that we have a grasp of the details in the subject, and this is what we do not have at hand.
The questioner : Yes, and because in the fiqh of the Sunnah—he mentioned, I think—he said about purity—I do not have it at hand now-; but perhaps he says that the birds of prey and such are pure...; meaning, he has some jurisprudential matters that are somewhat anomalous.
He (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade eating any carnivorous beast with fangs and any bird with talons.
نَهَى صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ أكل كُلِّ ذِي نَابٍ مِنَ السِّبَاعِ وَكُلِّ ذِي مِخْلَبٍ مِنَ الطَّيْرِThe Shaykh : Yes! Yes.
