حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عِيسَی حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ هَمَّامٍ عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قُلْتُ إِنِّي أُرْسِلُ الْکِلَابَ الْمُعَلَّمَةَ فَتُمْسِکُ عَلَيَّ أَفَآکُلُ قَالَ إِذَا أَرْسَلْتَ الْکِلَابَ الْمُعَلَّمَةَ وَذَکَرْتَ اسْمَ اللَّهِ فَکُلْ مِمَّا أَمْسَکْنَ عَلَيْکَ قُلْتُ وَإِنْ قَتَلْنَ قَالَ وَإِنْ قَتَلْنَ مَا لَمْ يَشْرَکْهَا کَلْبٌ لَيْسَ مِنْهَا قُلْتُ أَرْمِي بِالْمِعْرَاضِ فَأُصِيبُ أَفَآکُلُ قَالَ إِذَا رَمَيْتَ بِالْمِعْرَاضِ وَذَکَرْتَ اسْمَ اللَّهِ فَأَصَابَ فَخَرَقَ فَکُلْ وَإِنْ أَصَابَ بِعَرْضِهِ فَلَا تَأْکُلْ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 2847
Narrated Adi bin Hatim: I asked the Prophet ﷺ, and said: I set off my trained dogs, and they catch (something) for me: may I eat (it)? He said: When you set off trained dogs and mention Allah's name, eat what they catch for you. I said: Even if they killed (the game)? He said: Even if they killed (the game) as long as another dog does not join it. I said: I shoot with a featherless arrow, and it strikes the target, may I eat (it) ? He said: If you shoot with a featherless arrow and mention Allah's name, and it strikes the aim, and pierce it, eat it ; and if it strikes with its middle, do not eat (it).
