الصَّيْدِ بِالْكِلاَبِ الْمُعَلَّمَةِ

حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْحَنْظَلِيُّ، أَخْبَرَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ هَمَّامِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ، عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ، قَالَ: قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنِّي أُرْسِلُ الْكِلَابَ الْمُعَلَّمَةَ، فَيُمْسِكْنَ عَلَيَّ، وَأَذْكُرُ اسْمَ اللهِ عَلَيْهِ، فَقَالَ: «إِذَا أَرْسَلْتَ كَلْبَكَ الْمُعَلَّمَ، وَذَكَرْتَ اسْمَ اللهِ عَلَيْهِ فَكُلْ»، قُلْتُ: وَإِنْ قَتَلْنَ؟ قَالَ: «وَإِنْ قَتَلْنَ، مَا لَمْ يَشْرَكْهَا كَلْبٌ لَيْسَ مَعَهَا» قُلْتُ لَهُ: فَإِنِّي أَرْمِي بِالْمِعْرَاضِ الصَّيْدَ، فَأُصِيبُ، فَقَالَ: «إِذَا رَمَيْتَ بِالْمِعْرَاضِ فَخَزَقَ فَكُلْهُ، وَإِنْ أَصَابَهُ بِعَرْضِهِ، فَلَا تَأْكُلْهُ.

Hunting with trained dogs and arrows

I said: Messenger of Allah, I set off trained dogs and they catch for me (the game) and I recite the name of Allah over it (I slaughter the game by reciting Bismillah-i-Allah-o-Akbar), whereupon he said: When you set off your trained dogs, if you recited the name of Allah (while setting them off), then eat (the game). I said: Even if they (the trained dogs) kill that (the game)? He (the Holy Prophet) said: Even if these kill, but (on the condition) that no other dog, which you did not set off (along with your dogs), participates (in catching the game). I said to him: I throw Mi'rad, a heavy featherless blunt arrow, for hunting and killing (the game). Thereupon he said: When you throw Mi'rad, and it pierces, then eat, but if it falls flatly (and beats the game to death), then do not eat that.
