Question:
What is the evidence for the prohibition of the skins of wild beasts and leopards?
Answer:
The hadiths regarding this concern the prohibition of riding them and using them as mats.
Q: Does this mean the operative cause of the prohibition of the skins is the fear that their meat might be eaten?
A: Allah knows best. It is obligatory for us to follow, and it is sufficient for us to follow the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). It may be that this is a means to becoming lax in eating their meat, or there may be something else.
