What is the criterion for the one who rules on the compensation for game when it has no equivalent?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : The game for which the Companions issued a ruling, and that for which they did not issue a ruling, we take that as our basis... Now, how do we distinguish between what has an equivalent and what does not?
The Shaykh : We stipulated in this that the one who rules must be a person of expertise, and I am not a person of expertise.
The questioner : I mean, if a shaykh comes and says this is similar to that, but it is not explicit, is that taken as a basis?
The Shaykh : If there are two of them? They say this resembles such and such of the livestock?
The questioner : Did they agree among themselves?
The Shaykh : We take it as a basis as long as they are people of expertise; we take it as a basis.
The questioner : ... The author divided it into three categories...
The Shaykh : What are the three categories?
The questioner : One is the gazelle, and the second is what I do not know.
The Shaykh : The wild ass, the ibex, and the mountain goat.
The questioner : ... ؟
The Shaykh : I am not a person of expertise in this; I do not know them. The important thing, Salim, is that these things do not exist now, except perhaps in the mountains between Makkah and Madinah.
