Volume 7, Book 67, Number 384:
Narrated Adi bin Hatim:
I asked the Prophet about the game killed by a Mi'rad
(i.e. a sharp-edged piece of wood or a piece of wood
provided with a sharp piece of iron used for hunting). He
said, "If the game is killed with its sharp edge, eat of
it, but if it is killed with its shaft, with a hit by its
broad side then the game is (unlawful to eat) for it has
been beaten to death." I asked him about the game killed
by a trained hound. He said, "If the hound catches the
game for you, eat of it, for killing the game by the
hound, is like its slaughtering. But if you see with your
hound or hounds another dog, and you are afraid that it
might have shared in hunting the game with your hound and
killed it, then you should not eat of it, because you have
mentioned Allah's name on (sending) your hound only, but
you have not mentioned it on some other hound
Volume 7, Book 67, Number 385:
Narrated 'Adi bin Hatim:
I asked Allah's Apostle about the Mi'rad. He said, "If
you hit the game with its sharp edge, eat it, but if the
Mi'rad hits the game with its shaft with a hit by its
broad side do not eat it, for it has been beaten to death
with a piece of wood. (i.e. unlawful)." I asked, "If I let
loose my trained hound after a game?" He said, "If you let
loose your trained hound after game, and mention the name
of Allah, then you can eat." I said, "If the hound eats of
the game?" He said "Then you should not eat of it, for the
hound has hunted the game for itself and not for you." I
said, "Some times I send my hound and then I find some
other hound with it?" He said "Don't eat the game, as you
have mentioned the Name of Allah on your dog only and not
on the other."
Volume 7, Book 67, Number 386:
Narrated Adi bin Hatim:
I said, "O Allah's Apostle! We let loose our trained
hounds after a game?" He said, "Eat what they hunt for
you." I said, "Even if they killed (the game)?" He
replied, 'Even if they killed (the game)." I said, 'We
also hit (the game) with the Mi'rad?" He said, "Eat of the
animal which the Mi'rad kills by piercing its body, but do
not eat of the animal which is killed by the broad side of
the Mi'rad.''
Volume 7, Book 67, Number 387:
Narrated Abu Tha'laba Al-Khushani:
I said, "O Allah's Prophet! We are living in a land
ruled by the people of the Scripture; Can we take our
meals in their utensils? In that land there is plenty of
game and I hunt the game with my bow and with my hound
that is not trained and with my trained hound. Then what
is lawful for me to eat?" He said, "As for what you have
mentioned about the people of the Scripture, if you can
get utensils other than theirs, do not eat out of theirs,
but if you cannot get other than theirs, wash their
utensils and eat out of it. If you hunt an animal with
your bow after mentioning Allah's Name, eat of it. and if
you hunt something with your trained hound after
mentioning Allah's Name, eat of it, and if you hunt
something with your untrained hound (and get it before it
dies) and slaughter it, eat of it."
Volume 7, Book 67, Number 388:
Narrated 'Abdullah bin Maghaffal:
that he saw a man throwing stones with two fingers (at
something) and said to him, "Do not throw stones, for
Allah's Apostle has forbidden throwing stones, or e used
to dislike it." 'Abdullah added: Throwing stones will
neither hunt the game, nor kill (or hurt) an enemy, but it
may break a tooth or gouge out an eye." Afterwards
'Abdullah once again saw the man throwing stones. He said
to him, "I tell you that Allah's Apostle has forbidden or
disliked the throwing the stones (in such a way), yet you
are throwing stones! I shall not talk to you for
such-and-such a period."
Volume 7, Book 67, Number 389:
Narrated Ibn 'Umar:
The Prophet said, "Whoever keeps a (pet) dog which is
neither a watch dog nor a hunting dog, will get a daily
deduction of two Qirat from his good deeds."
Volume 7, Book 67, Number 390:
Narrated 'Abdullah bin Umar:
I heard the Prophet saying, "If someone keeps a dog
neither for hunting, nor for guarding livestock, the
reward (for his good deeds) will be reduced by two Qirats
per day."
Volume 7, Book 67, Number 391:
Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Umar:
Allah's Apostle said, "If someone keeps a dog neither
for guarding livestock, nor for hunting, his good deeds
will decrease (in reward) by two Qirats a day.'
Volume 7, Book 67, Number 392:
Narrated Adi bin Hatim:
I asked Allah's Apostle. "We hunt with the help of
these hounds." He said, "If you let loose your trained
hounds after a game, and mention the name of Allah, then
you can eat what the hounds catch for you, even if they
killed the game. But you should not eat of it if the hound
has eaten of it, for then it is likely that the hound has
caught the game for itself. And if other hounds join your
hound in hunting the game, then do not eat of it."
Volume 7, Book 67, Number 393:
Narrated Adi bin Hatim:
The Prophet said, "If you let loose your hound after a
game and mention Allah's Name on sending it, and the hound
catches the game and kills it, then you can eat of it. But
if the hound eats of it, then you should not eat thereof,
for the hound has caught it for itself. And if along with
your hound, join other hounds, and Allah's Name was not
mentioned at the time of their sending, and they catch an
animal and kill it, you should not ea: of it, for you will
not know which of them has killed it. And if you have
thrown an arrow at the game and then find it (dead) two or
three days later and, it bears no mark other than the
wound inflicted by your arrow, then you can eat of it. But
if the game is found (dead) in water, then do not eat of
it." And it has also been narrated by 'Adi bin Hatim that
he asked the Prophet "If a hunter throws an arrow at the
game and after tracing it for two or three days he finds
it dead but still bearing his arrow, (can he eat of it)?"
The Prophet replied, "He can eat if he wishes."
Volume 7, Book 67, Number 394:
Narrated 'Adi bin Hatim:
I said, "O Allah's Apostle! I let loose my hound after
a game and mention Allah's Name on sending it." The
Prophet said, "If you let loose your hound after a game
and you mention Allah's Name on sending it and the hound
catches and kills the game and eats of it, then you should
not eat of it, for it has killed it for itself." I said,
"Sometimes when I send my hound after a game, I find
another hound along with it and I do not know which of
them has caught the game." He said, "You must not eat of
it because you have not mentioned, the Name of Allah
except on sending your own hound, and you did not mention
it on the other hound." Then I asked him about the game
hunted with a Mi'rad (i.e. a sharp edged piece of wood or
a piece of wood provided with a sharp piece of iron used
for hunting). He said, "If the game is killed with its
sharp edge, you can eat of it, but if it is killed by its
broad side (shaft), you cannot eat of it, for then it is
like an animal beaten to death with a pie
Volume 7, Book 67, Number 395:
Narrated Adi Bin Hatim:
I asked Allah's Apostle, "We hunt with these hounds."
He said, "If you send your trained hounds after a game and
mention Allah's Name on sending, you can eat of what they
catch for you. But if the hound eats of the game, then you
must not eat of it, for I am afraid that the hound caught
it for itself, and if another hound joins your hounds
(during the hunt), you should not eat of the game."
Volume 7, Book 67, Number 396:
Narrated Abu Tha'laba Al-Khushani:
I came to Allah's Apostle and said, "O Allah's Apostle!
We are living in the land of the people of the Scripture
and we take our meals in their utensils, and in the land
there is game and I hunt with my bow and trained or
untrained hounds; please tell me what is lawful for us of
that." He said, "As for your saying that you are living in
the land of the people of the Scripture and that you eat
in their utensils, if you can get utensils other than
theirs, do not eat in their utensils, but if you do not
find (other than theirs), then wash their utensils and eat
in them. As for your saying that you are in the land of
game, if you hung something with your bow, and have
mentioned Allah's Name while hunting, then you can eat
(the game). And if you hunt something with your trained
hound, and have mentioned Allah's Name on sending it for
hunting then you can eat (the game). But if you hunt
something with your untrained hound and you were able to
slaughter it before its death, you can eat of it."
Volume 7, Book 67, Number 397:
Narrated Anas bin Malik:
We provoked a rabbit at Marr Az-Zahran till it started

Talha. He sent both its legs to the Prophet who accepted
them.
Volume 7, Book 67, Number 398:
Narrated Abu Qatada:
that once he was with Allah's Apostle (on the way to
Mecca). When he had covered some of the way to Mecca, he
and some companions of his, who were in the state of lhram.
remained behind the Prophet while Abu Qatada himself was
not in the state of Ihram. Abu Qatada, seeing an onager
rode his horse and asked his companions to hand him a
whip, but they refused. He then asked them to hand him his
spear, but they refused. Then he took it himself and
attacked the onager and killed it. Some of the Companions
of Allah's Apostle ate of it, but some others refused to
eat. When they met Allah's Apostle they asked him about
that. He said, "It was meal given to you by Allah."
Volume 7, Book 67, Number 399:
Narrated Abu Qatada:
(the same Hadith above, but he added); The Prophet
asked, "Is there any of its meat left with you?"
Volume 7, Book 67, Number 400:
Narrated Abu Qatada:
I was with the Prophet (on a journey) between Mecca and
Medina, and all of them, (i.e. the Prophet and his
companions) were in the state of Ihram, while I was not in
that state. I was riding my horse and I used to be fond of
ascending mountains. So while I was doing so I noticed
that the people were looking at something. I went to see
what it was, and behold it was an onager. I asked my
companions, "What is that?" They said, "We do not know." I
said, "It is an onager.' They said, "It is what you have
seen." I had left my whip, so I said to them, "Hand to me
my whip." They said, "We will not help you in that (in
hunting the onager)." I got down, took my whip and chased
the animal (on my horse) and did not stop till I killed
it. I went to them and said, "Come on, carry it!" But they
said, "We will not even touch it." At last I alone carried
it and brought it to them. Some of them ate of it and some
refused to eat of it. I said (to them), "I will ask the
Prophet about it (on your behalf)." When I met the
Prophet, I told him the whole story. He said to me, "Has
anything of it been left with you?" I said, "Yes." He
said, "Eat, for it is a meal Allah has offered to you."
Volume 7, Book 67, Number 401:
Narrated Jabir:
We went out in a campaign and the army was called The
Army of the Khabt, and Abu 'Ubaida was our commander. We
were struck with severe hunger. Then the sea threw a huge
dead fish called Al-'Anbar, the like of which had never
been seen. We ate of it for half a month, and then Abu 'Ubaida
took one of its bones (and made an arch of it) so that a
rider could easily pass under it.
Volume 7, Book 67, Number 402:
Narrated Jabir:
The Prophet sent us as an army unit of three hundred
warriors under the command of Abu 'Ubaida to ambush a
caravan of the Quraish. But we were struck with such
severe hunger that we ate the Khabt (desert bushes), so
our army was called the Army of the Khabt. Then the sea
threw a huge fish called Al-'Anbar and we ate of it for
half a month and rubbed our bodies with its fat till our
bodies became healthy. Then Abu Ubaida took one of its
ribs and fixed it over the ground and a rider passed
underneath it. There was a man amongst us who slaughtered
three camels when hunger became severe, and he slaughtered
three more, but after that Abu 'Ubaida forbade him to do
so.

and with my untrained hound." The Prophet said, "As for
your saying that you are in the land of people of the
Scripture, you should not eat in their utensils unless you
find no alternative, in which case you must wash the
utensils and then eat in them As for your saying that you
are in the land of game, if you hunt something with your
bow, mention Allah's Name (while hunting the game) and
eat; and if you hunt something with your trained hound,
mention Allah's Name on sending and eat; and if you hunt
something with your untrained hound and get it alive,
slaughter it and you can eat of it"
Volume 7, Book 67, Number 405:
Narrated Salama bin Al-Aqwa':
In the evening of the day of the conquest of Khaibar,
the army made fires (for cooking). The Prophet said, "For
what have you made these fires?" They said, "For cooking
the meat of domestic donkeys." He said, "Throw away what
is in the cooking pots and break the pots." A man from the
people got up and said, "Shall we throw the contents of
the cooking pots and then wash the pots (instead of
breaking them)?" The Prophet said, "Yes, you can do
either'
Volume 7, Book 67, Number 406:
Narrated Rafi bin Khadij:
We were with the Prophet in Dhul-Hulaifa and there the
people were struck with severe hunger. Then we got camels
and sheep as war booty (and slaughtered them). The Prophet
was behind all the people. The people hurried and fixed
the cooking pots (for cooking) but the Prophet came there
and ordered that the cooking pots be turned upside down.
Then he distributed the animals, regarding ten sheep as
equal to one camel. One of the camels ran away and there
were a few horses with the people. They chased the camel
but they got tired, whereupon a man shot it with an arrow
whereby Allah stopped it. The Prophet said, "Among these
animals some are as wild as wild beasts, so if one of them
runs away from you, treat it in this way." I said. "We
hope, or we are afraid that tomorrow we will meet the
enemy and we have no knives, shall we slaughter (our
animals) with canes?" The Prophet said, "If the killing
tool causes blood to gush out and if Allah's Name is
mentioned, eat (of the slaughterer animal). But do not
slaughter with a tooth or a nail. I am telling you why: A
tooth is a bone, and the nail is the knife of Ethiopians."

eat of it and then said (to the pagans), "I do not eat of
what you slaughter on your stonealtars (Ansabs) nor do I
eat except that on which Allah's Name has been mentioned
on slaughtering."
Volume 7, Book 67, Number 408:

Once during the lifetime of Allah's Apostle we offered
some animals as sacrifices. Some people slaughtered their
sacrifices before the (Id) prayer, so when the Prophet
finished his prayer, he saw that they had slaughtered
their sacrifices before the prayer. He said, "Whoever has
slaughtered (his sacrifice) before the prayer, should
slaughter (another sacrifice) in lieu of it; and whoever
has not yet slaughtered it till we have prayed; should
slaughter (it) by mentioning Allah's Name."

tooth, for the nail is the knife of Ethiopians and a tooth
is a bone." Suddenly a camel ran away and it was stopped
(with an arrow). The Prophet then said, "Of these camels
there are some which are as wild as wild beasts; so if one
of them runs away from you and you cannot catch it, treat
it in this manner (i.e. shoot it with an arrow)."

(of the slaughtered animal). But do not slaughter with a
tooth or a nail. I will tell you why: As for the tooth, it
is a bone; and as for the nail, it is the knife of

(and eat), for I have seen Allah's Apostle eating of it
(i.e. chicken)." He said, "I have seen it eating something
(dirty) and since then I have disliked it, and have taken
an oath that I shall not eat it ' Abu Musa said, "Come on,
I will tell you (or narrate to you). Once I went to Allah
s Apostle with a group of Al-Ash'ariyin, and met him while
he was angry, distributing some camels of Rakat. We asked
for mounts but he took an oath that he would not give us
any mounts, and added, 'I have nothing to mount you on' In
the meantime some camels of booty were brought to Allah's
Apostle and he asked twice, 'Where are Al-Ash'ariyin?" So
he gave us five white camels with big humps. We stayed for
a short while (after we had covered a little distance),
and then I said to my companions, "Allah's Apostle has
forgotten his oath. By Allah, if we do not remind Allah's
Apostle of his oath, we will never be successful." So we
returned to the Prophet and said, "O Allah's Apostle! We
asked you for mounts, but you took an oath that you would
not give us any mounts; we think that you have forgotten
your oath.' He said, 'It is Allah Who has given you
mounts. By Allah, and Allah willing, if I take an oath and
later find something else better than that. then I do what
is better and expiate my oath.' "

unlawful?" He said, "No, but this is not found in the land
of my people, so I dislike it." So I pulled the mastigure
towards me and ate it while Allah's Apostle was looking at
me.

Volume 7, Book 67, Number 451:
Narrated Rait' bin Khadij:
I said to the Prophet, "We will be facing the enemy
tomorrow and we have no knives (for slaughtering)' He
said, "If you slaughter the animal with anything that
causes its blood to flow out, and if Allah's Name is
mentioned on slaughtering it, eat of it, unless the
killing instrument is a tooth or nail. I will tell you
why: As for the tooth, it is a bone; and as for the nail,
it is the knife of Ethiopians." The quick ones among the
people got the war booty while the Prophet was behind the
people. So they placed the cooking pots on the fire, but
the Prophet ordered the cooking pots to be turned upside
down. Then he distributed (the war booty) among them,
considering one camel as equal to ten sheep. Then a camel
belonging to the first party of people ran away and they
had no horses with them, so a man shot it with an arrow
whereby Allah stopped it. The Prophet said, "Of these
animals there are some which are as wild as wild beasts.
So, if anyone of them runs away like this, do like this
(shoot it with an arrow)."
Volume 7, Book 67, Number 452:
Narrated Rafi bin Khadij:
While we were with the Prophet. on a journey, one of
the camels ran away. A man shot it with an arrow and
stopped it. The Prophet said, "Of these camels some are as
wild as wild beasts, so if one of them runs away and you
cannot catch it, then do like this (shoot it with an
arrow)." I said, "O Allah's Apostle! Sometimes when we are
in battles or on a journey we want to slaughter (animals)
but we have no knives." He said, "Listen! If you slaughter
the animal with anything that causes its blood to flow
out, and if Allah's Name is mentioned on slaughtering it,
eat of it, provided that the slaughtering instrument is
not a tooth or a nail, as the tooth is a bone and the nail
is the knife of Ethiopians."
