Ruling on lending a stud ram and liability for its trespass?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
If a man says to another: "Lend me your ram for a week for such-and-such?"
It is not permissible. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) prohibited selling the offspring of a stud ram or the service of a stud ram. One may lend it for nothing, without compensation, except for the feed.
Q: Some types of rams are of good quality and expensive; so some sheep owners need this ram?
A: Even if it is the best thing, this is not permissible. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) prohibited this.
Q: If a ram mates with a man's sheep without the owner of the ram knowing, is he liable for compensation?
A: He owes nothing. He is not liable for compensation.
