Is there a price for the mahr of a prostitute?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Yes, indeed... without a valid consideration. However, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) did not say "the price of prostitution" nor did he say "the price of fortune-telling," which indicates that it has no value whatsoever. For this reason, if a man commits unlawful sexual intercourse with a woman who is willing, she has no mahr, even if he takes her virginity. According to the stronger position, she has no compensation for her virginity and nothing else. Yes, indeed.

The questioner : ... In it, he referred to the mahr and the gift by calling it a price, because that applies to the meaning...?

The Shaykh : Yes?
