Cleansing The Locust

CR # (1632) Cleansing of locust also is done by catching it alive by hand or tools. If it dies before catching, it is not good for food. For such cleansing pronouncing the names of Allah is not necessary or to be a Muslim. If a non-Muslim catches them alive, it is good for food, however, if it is found in his hands it is not considered good for food, even if he says it is good.

CR # (1633) The kind of locust looking things which do not fly is not good for food.

CR # (1634) If there is fire where locusts are and they die before they are caught alive, they are not good for food. If fire is set and locusts come from surroundings and die in the fire their being good for food is objectionable.
