Is it obligatory to return a sa' of dates in the case of a musra'ah?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : For example, is it permissible to return something other than dates to him?
The Shaykh : No, dates. Except for the one who has nothing, we said: if we were in a land where there are no dates, you return what is closest in resemblance to dates, the foodstuff you have that resembles dates.
The questioner : O Shaykh!
The Shaykh : Yes?
The questioner : May Allah reward you with good, O Shaykh: some sheep, when they are musra'ah.
The Shaykh : Hm? How?
The questioner : Some sheep, when they are musra'ah, a musra'ah procedure is performed on them where the milk mixes with the blood. So when it is milked, the milk is actually defective. I mean, if he returns it, does he return a sa' of dates?
The Shaykh : I do not know if this is in every musra'ah or not?
The questioner : No, it is usually in sheep, usually.
The Shaykh : No, the mixing of milk with blood can happen even in non-musra'ah sheep.
The Shaykh : No, dates. Except for the one who has nothing, we said: if we were in a land where there are no dates, you return what is closest in resemblance to dates, the foodstuff you have that resembles dates.
