I said, "Messenger of Allah, we are people who hunt."He replied, "When you release your dog and mention the name of Allah over it, and it holds the game for you, then eat."I asked, "Even if it kills the game?"He said, "Even if it kills it."I said, "We are people who shoot with the bow."He replied, "Whatever your bow brings back to you, eat it."I said, "We travel often and pass by Jews, Christians, and Magians, and we find no vessels other than theirs."He said, "If you find none but theirs, wash them with water, then eat and drink from them."
حدثنا أحمد بن منيع حدثنا يزيد بن هارون حدثنا الحجاج عن مكحول عن أبي ثعلبة ح والحجاج عن الوليد بن أبي مالك عن عائذ الله بن عبد الله أنه سمع
قلت يا رسول الله إنا أهل صيد قال إذا أرسلت كلبك وذكرت اسم الله عليه فأمسك عليك فكل قلت وإن قتل قال وإن قتل قلت إنا أهل رمي قال ما ردت عليك قوسك فكل قال قلت إنا أهل سفر نمر باليهود والنصارى والمجوس فلا نجد غير آنيتهم قال فإن لم تجدوا غيرها فاغسلوها بالماء ثم كلوا فيها واشربوا
[Sahih]. Muslim also related it in the Book of Hunting and Slaughtered Animals, chapter, If the game disappears from him and then he finds it, hadith no. 1931, through another chain from Makhul with the same wording. Bukhari related it, hadith no. 5488, and Muslim, hadith no. 1920, from the hadith of Aaidhullah with the same wording.There is also a narration on this topic from Adi bin Hatim [to come, 1465].
