It was narrated that 'Adiyy bin Hatim said: "I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, I release my trained dogs and they catch (game) for me, and I mention the Name of Allah over them.' He said: 'If you release your trained dog and you mention the Name of Allah over him, then eat.' I said: 'Even if (the dogs) kill (the game)?' He said: 'Even if they kill it, so long as another dog has not joined them." I said to him: 'And I shoot the game with a Mi'rad. (a short blunt, arrow without fletching) and I hit it.' He said: If you shoot the Mi'rad and it pierces (the game), then eat it, but if it strikes it sideways, then do not eat it."'

حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْحَنْظَلِيُّ ، أَخْبَرَنَا جَرِيرٌ ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، عَنْ هَمَّامِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ ، عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ ، قَالَ: قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، إِنِّي أُرْسِلُ الْكِلاَبَ الْمُعَلَّمَةَ ، فَيُمْسِكْنَ عَلَيَّ ، وَأَذْكُرُ اسْمَ اللهِ عَلَيْهِ ، فَقَالَ: إِذَا أَرْسَلْتَ كَلْبَكَ الْمُعَلَّمَ ، وَذَكَرْتَ اسْمَ اللهِ عَلَيْهِ فَكُلْ ، قُلْتُ: وَإِنْ قَتَلْنَ ؟ قَالَ: وَإِنْ قَتَلْنَ ، مَا لَمْ يَشْرَكْهَا كَلْبٌ لَيْسَ مَعَهَا قُلْتُ لَهُ: فَإِنِّي أَرْمِي بِالْمِعْرَاضِ الصَّيْدَ، فَأُصِيبُ ، فَقَالَ: إِذَا رَمَيْتَ بِالْمِعْرَاضِ فَخَزَقَ فَكُلْهُ ، وَإِنْ أَصَابَهُ بِعَرْضِهِ ، فَلاَ تَأْكُلْهُ.

It was narrated that 'Adiyy bin Hatim said: "I asked the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) saying: 'We are a people who hunt with these dogs.' He said: 'If you release these trained dogs and mention the Name of Allah over them, then eat what they catch for you, even if they kill it, unless the dog eats some of it. If he eats some of it then do not eat of it, for I am afraid that he may have caught it for himself. And if other dogs join your dog, then do not eat (the game)."'

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ فُضَيْلٍ ، عَنْ بَيَانٍ ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ ، عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ ، قَالَ : سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قُلْتُ : إِنَّا قَوْمٌ نَصِيدُ بِهَذِهِ الْكِلاَبِ ، فَقَالَ : إِذَا أَرْسَلْتَ كِلاَبَكَ الْمُعَلَّمَةَ ، وَذَكَرْتَ اسْمَ اللهِ عَلَيْهَا ، فَكُلْ مِمَّا أَمْسَكْنَ عَلَيْكَ ، وَإِنْ قَتَلْنَ ، إِلاَّ أَنْ يَأْكُلَ الْكَلْبُ ، فَإِنْ أَكَلَ فَلاَ تَأْكُلْ ، فَإِنِّي أَخَافُ أَنْ يَكُونَ إِنَّمَا أَمْسَكَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ ، وَإِنْ خَالَطَهَا كِلاَبٌ مِنْ غَيْرِهَا ، فَلاَ تَأْكُلْ.

It was narrated that 'Adiyy bin Hatim said: "I asked the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) about the Mi'rad. He said: 'If its point strikes (the game), then eat, but if its edge (i.e., side - ways) strikes it and kills it, then it has been beaten to death, so do not eat it.' And I asked the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) about dogs. He said: 'If you release your dog and mention the Name of Allah, then eat, but if he has eaten part of it then do not eat, for he has caught it for himself.' I said: 'What if I find another dog with my dog, and I do not know which of them caught it?' He said: 'Do not eat, for you mentioned the Name of Allah over your dog but you did not mention the Name of Allah over any other."'

وحَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ الْعَنْبَرِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي السَّفَرِ ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ ، عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ ، قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنِ الْمِعْرَاضِ ، فَقَالَ: إِذَا أَصَابَ بِحَدِّهِ فَكُلْ ، وَإِذَا أَصَابَ بِعَرْضِهِ فَقَتَلَ ، فَإِنَّهُ وَقِيذٌ ، فَلاَ تَأْكُلْ وَسَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنِ الْكَلْبِ ، فَقَالَ: إِذَا أَرْسَلْتَ كَلْبَكَ ، وَذَكَرْتَ اسْمَ اللهِ فَكُلْ ، فَإِنْ أَكَلَ مِنْهُ فَلاَ تَأْكُلْ ، فَإِنَّهُ إِنَّمَا أَمْسَكَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ ، قُلْتُ : فَإِنْ وَجَدْتُ مَعَ كَلْبِي كَلْبًا آخَرَ ، فَلاَ أَدْرِي أَيُّهُمَا أَخَذَهُ ؟ قَالَ: فَلاَ تَأْكُلْ ، فَإِنَّمَا سَمَّيْتَ عَلَى كَلْبِكَ ، وَلَمْ تُسَمِّ عَلَى غَيْرِهِ.

It was narrated that 'Adiyy bin Hatim said: "I asked the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) about hunting with a Mi'rad. He said: 'Whatever is struck with its point, eat it, but whatever is struck with its sideways, do not eat it, for it has been beaten to death.' And I asked him about hunting with dogs. He said: 'Whatever it catches for you and does not eat, then eat it, for its slaughtering is its being caught and killed (by the dog). But if you find another dog with him and you fear that (the other dog) caught it with him and killed it, then do not eat, for you mentioned the Name of Allah over your dog, not any other.'"

وحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، حَدَّثَنَا زَكَرِيَّا ، عَنْ عَامِرٍ ، عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ ، قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، عَنْ صَيْدِ الْمِعْرَاضِ؟ فَقَالَ: مَا أَصَابَ بِحَدِّهِ فَكُلْهُ ، وَمَا أَصَابَ بِعَرْضِهِ فَهُوَ وَقِيذٌ ، وَسَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ صَيْدِ الْكَلْبِ ؟ فَقَالَ: مَا أَمْسَكَ عَلَيْكَ وَلَمْ يَأْكُلْ مِنْهُ فَكُلْهُ ، فَإِنَّ ذَكَاتَهُ أَخْذُهُ ، فَإِنْ وَجَدْتَ عِنْدَهُ كَلْبًا آخَرَ ، فَخَشِيتَ أَنْ يَكُونَ أَخَذَهُ مَعَهُ وَقَدْ قَتَلَهُ ، فَلاَ تَأْكُلْ ، إِنَّمَا ذَكَرْتَ اسْمَ اللهِ عَلَى كَلْبِكَ ، وَلَمْ تَذْكُرْهُ عَلَى غَيْرِهِ.

Ash-Sha'bi said: "I heard 'Adiyy bin Hatim, who was our neighbor, partner and close associate in An-Nahrain, say that he asked the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w): 'I release my dog and I find another dog has caught the game with my dog, and I do not know which of them caught it and killed it first.' He said: 'Do not eat, for you only mentioned the Name of Allah over your dog, not any other.'"

وحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ مَسْرُوقٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا الشَّعْبِيُّ ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عَدِيَّ بْنَ حَاتِمٍ ، وَكَانَ لَنَا جَارًا وَدَخِيلاً وَرَبِيطًا بِالنَّهْرَيْنِ ، أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ: أُرْسِلُ كَلْبِي ، فَأَجِدُ مَعَ كَلْبِي كَلْبًا قَدْ أَخَذَ ، لاَ أَدْرِي أَيُّهُمَا أَخَذَ ؟ قَالَ: فَلاَ تَأْكُلْ ، فَإِنَّمَا سَمَّيْتَ عَلَى كَلْبِكَ ، وَلَمْ تُسَمِّ عَلَى غَيْرِهِ.

It was narrated that 'Adiyy bin Hatim said: "The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said to me: 'If you release your dog and mention the Name of Allah, if he catches something for you and you find it alive, then slaughter it; if you find he has killed it but has not eaten any of it, then eat it. If you find another dog with your dog and it (the game) has been killed, then do not eat, for you do not know which of them killed it. If you shoot your arrow and mention the Name of Allah, then (the game) vanishes from your sight for a day, and you only find the mark of your arrow on it, then eat if you wish, but if you find it drowned in water, then do not eat it."'

حَدَّثَنِي الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ شُجَاعٍ السَّكُونِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُسْهِرٍ ، عَنْ عَاصِمٍ ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ ، عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ ، قَالَ : قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : إِذَا أَرْسَلْتَ كَلْبَكَ فَاذْكُرِ اسْمَ اللهِ ، فَإِنْ أَمْسَكَ عَلَيْكَ ، فَأَدْرَكْتَهُ حَيًّا فَاذْبَحْهُ ، وَإِنْ أَدْرَكْتَهُ قَدْ قَتَلَ ، وَلَمْ يَأْكُلْ مِنْهُ فَكُلْهُ ، وَإِنْ وَجَدْتَ مَعَ كَلْبِكَ كَلْبًا غَيْرَهُ ، وَقَدْ قَتَلَ فَلاَ تَأْكُلْ ، فَإِنَّكَ لاَ تَدْرِي أَيُّهُمَا قَتَلَهُ ، وَإِنْ رَمَيْتَ سَهْمَكَ ، فَاذْكُرِ اسْمَ اللهِ ، فَإِنْ غَابَ عَنْكَ يَوْمًا ، فَلَمْ تَجِدْ فِيهِ إِلاَّ أَثَرَ سَهْمِكَ ، فَكُلْ إِنْ شِئْتَ ، وَإِنْ وَجَدْتَهُ غَرِيقًا فِي الْمَاءِ ، فَلاَ تَأْكُلْ.

It was narrated that 'Adiyy bin Hatim said: "I asked the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) about hunting. He said: "When you shoot your arrow, mention the Name of Allah. Then if you find it (the game) dead then eat, unless you find that it has fallen into water, in which case you cannot know whether it was the water that killed it, or your arrow."'

حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَيُّوبَ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَاصِمٌ ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ ، عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ ، قَالَ : سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنِ الصَّيْدِ ؟ قَالَ : إِذَا رَمَيْتَ سَهْمَكَ ، فَاذْكُرِ اسْمَ اللهِ ، فَإِنْ وَجَدْتَهُ قَدْ قَتَلَ فَكُلْ ، إِلاَّ أَنْ تَجِدَهُ قَدْ وَقَعَ فِي مَاءٍ ، فَإِنَّكَ لاَ تَدْرِي ، الْمَاءُ قَتَلَهُ أَوْ سَهْمُكَ.

Abu Tha'labah Al-Khushani said: "I came to the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, we are in the land of some of the People of the Book, and we eat from their vessels. And it is a land where I hunt with my bow and with my trained dog, or my dog that is not trained. Tell me what is permissible for us of that.' He (s.a.w) said: 'As for what you have mentioned about being in a land of some of the People of the Book, and eating from their vessels, if you can find vessels other than theirs, then do not eat (from their vessels), but if you cannot, then wash them then eat from them. As for what you have mentioned about being in a hunting land, whatever you catch with your bow, mention the Name of Allah then eat, and whatever you catch with your trained dog, mention the Name of Allah then eat. But whatever you catch with your dog that is not trained, if you come to it (when it is still alive) and slaughter it, then eat it."'

حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ ، عَنْ حَيْوَةَ بْنِ شُرَيْحٍ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ رَبِيعَةَ بْنَ يَزِيدَ الدِّمَشْقِيَّ ، يَقُولُ : أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو إِدْرِيسَ عَائِذُ اللهِ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ أَبَا ثَعْلَبَةَ الْخُشَنِيَّ ، يَقُولُ : أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، إِنَّا بِأَرْضِ قَوْمٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ نَأْكُلُ فِي آنِيَتِهِمْ ، وَأَرْضِ صَيْدٍ أَصِيدُ بِقَوْسِي وَأَصِيدُ بِكَلْبِي الْمُعَلَّمِ ، أَوْ بِكَلْبِي الَّذِي لَيْسَ بِمُعَلَّمٍ ، فَأَخْبِرْنِي مَا الَّذِي يَحِلُّ لَنَا مِنْ ذَلِكَ ؟ قَالَ : أَمَّا مَا ذَكَرْتَ أَنَّكُمْ بِأَرْضِ قَوْمٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ تَأْكُلُونَ فِي آنِيَتِهِمْ ، فَإِنْ وَجَدْتُمْ غَيْرَ آنِيَتِهِمْ ، فَلاَ تَأْكُلُوا فِيهَا ، وَإِنْ لَمْ تَجِدُوا فَاغْسِلُوهَا ، ثُمَّ كُلُوا فِيهَا ، وَأَمَّا مَا ذَكَرْتَ أَنَّكَ بِأَرْضِ صَيْدٍ ، فَمَا أَصَبْتَ بِقَوْسِكَ ، فَاذْكُرِ اسْمَ اللهِ ، ثُمَّ كُلْ ، وَمَا أَصَبْتَ بِكَلْبِكَ الْمُعَلَّمِ ، فَاذْكُرِ اسْمَ اللهِ ، ثُمَّ كُلْ ، وَمَا أَصَبْتَ بِكَلْبِكَ الَّذِي لَيْسَ بِمُعَلَّمٍ ، فَأَدْرَكْتَ ذَكَاتَهُ ، فَكُلْ.

It was narrated from Abu Tha'labah that the Prophet (s.a.w) said: "If you shoot your arrow and (the game) disappears, then you find it, then eat it, so long as it has not turned rotten."

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مِهْرَانَ الرَّازِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ حَمَّادُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ الْخَيَّاطُ ، عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ صَالِحٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي ثَعْلَبَةَ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ: إِذَا رَمَيْتَ بِسَهْمِكَ ، فَغَابَ عَنْكَ ، فَأَدْرَكْتَهُ فَكُلْهُ ، مَا لَمْ يُنْتِنْ.

A Hadith like that of Al-'Ala' was narrated from Abu Tha'labah Al-Khushani, except that he did not mention it turning rotten. And he said concerning dogs: "Eat it after three days unless it has turned rotten, in which case leave it."

وحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ ، عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ صَالِحٍ ، عَنِ الْعَلاَءِ ، عَنْ مَكْحُولٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي ثَعْلَبَةَ الْخُشَنِيِّ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَدِيثَهُ فِي الصَّيْدِ. ثُمَّ قَالَ ابْنُ حَاتِمٍ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ ، عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ ، وَأَبِي الزَّاهِرِيَّةِ ، عَنْ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ نُفَيْرٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي ثَعْلَبَةَ الْخُشَنِيِّ بِمِثْلِ حَدِيثِ الْعَلاَءِ ، غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَذْكُرْ نُتُونَتَهُ ، وَقَالَ فِي الْكَلْبِ: كُلْهُ بَعْدَ ثَلاَثٍ إِلاَّ أَنْ يُنْتِنَ فَدَعْهُ.
