Chapter 31 · The Chapter on Slaughteringحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ، عَنْ مُرِّيِّ بْنِ قَطَرِيٍّ، عَنْ عَدِيِّ ابْنِ حَاتِمٍ، قَالَ: قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، إِنَّا نَصِيدُ الصَّيْدَ فَلَا نَجِدُ سِكِّينًا، إِلَّا الظِّرَارَ وَشِقَّةَ الْعَصَا، قَالَ: أَمْرِرِ الدَّمَ بِمَا شِئْتَ، وَاذْكُرِ اسْمَ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ .

It was narrated that ‘Adi bin Hatim said: “I said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, we hunt game but we cannot find anything but the sharp edge of a stone or stick (with which to slaughter it).’ He said: ‘Cause the blood to flow with whatever you want, and mention the Name of Allah over it.’”
