Ruling on breaking the bone of a deceased disbeliever

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q: Is it permissible to break the bone of a deceased disbeliever?

A: There is a distinction in this; if he is a dhimmi (a non-Muslim under Muslim protection), a treaty partner, or a non-Muslim granted safe conduct, it is not permissible to harm him. However, if he is a person at war, there is no harm in doing so. Accordingly, it is permissible to take organs from a deceased person at war, but not from a treaty partner, a dhimmi, or a non-Muslim granted safe conduct, because their bodies are respected.
