Sahih Muslim 1929f (Book 34, Hadith 6) #12082
Hunting Game with Dogs and Mi'rads

SUMMARY: Hunting game with the help of a Mi'rad or a dog is permissible, but only if the game is killed by the Mi'rad or dog and not another animal.

'Adi b. Hatim reported: I asked Allah's Messenger about hunting the game with the help of Mi'rad, whereupon he said: If it strikes (the game) with its point, then eat it, but if it strikes flat, that is (the game is) beaten (into death), (then do not eat that) 'Adi further said: I asked him about hunting with the help of a dog, whereupon he said: If that (the dog) catches it (the game) for you and does not eat out of that, then you eat (the game) for Dhakat (slaughtering) of that is its being caught by it (by the dog). But if you find another dog besides it, and you fear that that dog (the second one) had caught it (the game) along with that (your dog) and killed it. then don't eat; for you recited the name of Allah on your dog and did not recite that on the other one (which joined your dog incidentally).
وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، حَدَّثَنَا زَكَرِيَّاءُ، عَنْ عَامِرٍ، عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ، قَالَ سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ عَنْ صَيْدِ الْمِعْرَاضِ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ مَا أَصَابَ بِحَدِّهِ فَكُلْهُ وَمَا أَصَابَ بِعَرْضِهِ فَهُوَ وَقِيذٌ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ وَسَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ صَيْدِ الْكَلْبِ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ مَا أَمْسَكَ عَلَيْكَ وَلَمْ يَأْكُلْ مِنْهُ فَكُلْهُ فَإِنَّ ذَكَاتَهُ أَخْذُهُ فَإِنْ وَجَدْتَ عِنْدَهُ كَلْبًا آخَرَ فَخَشِيتَ أَنْ يَكُونَ أَخَذَهُ مَعَهُ وَقَدْ قَتَلَهُ فَلاَ تَأْكُلْ إِنَّمَا ذَكَرْتَ اسْمَ اللَّهِ عَلَى كَلْبِكَ وَلَمْ تَذْكُرْهُ عَلَى غَيْرِهِ

QUICK LESSONS:
Recite Allah's Name before doing anything so that we are blessed in our actions
EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith discusses hunting game with the help of a dog or a mi’rad, which is an ancient type of bow used for hunting. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said that if it strikes the game with its point, then it can be eaten as long as it was killed by either the mi’rad or dog. However, if another animal kills it while your mi’rad or dog was present, then you should not eat from that because you did not recite Allah's name on that other animal. This hadith teaches us to be mindful when we hunt animals and to respect all creatures in our environment. We should also remember to always recite Allah's name before doing anything so that we are blessed in our actions.
