أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ عَنْ شُعْبَةَ عَنْ ابْنِ أَبِي السَّفَرِ عَنْ الشَّعْبِيِّ وَعَنْ الْحَکَمِ عَنْ الشَّعْبِيِّ وَعَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ مَسْرُوقٍ عَنْ الشَّعْبِيِّ عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قُلْتُ أُرْسِلُ کَلْبِي فَأَجِدُ مَعَ کَلْبِي کَلْبًا آخَرَ لَا أَدْرِي أَيَّهُمَا أَخَذَ قَالَ لَا تَأْکُلْ فَإِنَّمَا سَمَّيْتَ عَلَی کَلْبِکَ وَلَمْ تُسَمِّ عَلَی غَيْرِهِ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 4288
It was narrated that ‘Adiyy bin Hatim said: “I asked the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم : ‘I release my dog, and I find another dog with mine, and I do not know which of them caught (the game).’ He said: ‘Do not eat it, for you said the name of Allah over your dog, but not over any other.” (Sahih)
