Sahih Muslim Hadith 4974 – Hunting With

English

[4974] 3 – ( … ) It was narrated that 'Adiyy bin Uâtim said: "I asked the Messenger of Allah about the Mi'râd. 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 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."
