Is a cow or seven sheep sufficient for one who is obligated to offer a camel?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Regarding the one who is obligated to offer a camel, we said that if he had intercourse, he is required to pay the expiation of a camel. Is seven sheep or a cow sufficient for it?

The Shaykh : What did we say, my brothers? We said that, except in the case of hunting, a camel takes the place of seven sheep, and seven sheep are sufficient in place of a camel, except in the case of hunting, due to the condition of similarity.
