Sahih al-Bukhari 5475

Hadith text

Narrated Adi bin Hatim:I asked the Prophet (ﷺ) 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

Adi bin Hatim bataate hain: Maine Nabi (SAW) se Mi'rad (lakdi ka teekha hathiyaar, ya loha lagi hui lakdi) se maare gaye shikaar ke baare mein pucha. Unhone farmaya, 'Agar shikaar iski teekhi dhaar se maara gaya ho, to use khaao, magar agar wo iski chaudi taraf ki chot se maara gaya ho, to wo shikaar (haraam hai), kyunke wo maar-maar kar mara gaya hai.' Maine unse trained kutte se maare gaye shikaar ke baare mein pucha. Unhone farmaya, 'Agar kutta tumhaare liye shikaar pakad le, to use khaao, kyunke kutte ka shikaar maarna zibah karne jaisa hai. Magar agar tum apne kutte ke saath koi aur kutta dekho, aur tumhein dar ho ke usne bhi shikaar pakadne mein hissa liya ho aur use maara ho, to use mat khaao, kyunke tumne Allah ka naam sirf apne kutte ko bhejte waqt liya tha, kisi aur kutte par nahi liya tha.'
