Sunan Abi Dawud 3792 (Book 28, Hadith 57) #24082
Hunting and Eating Hare in Islam

SUMMARY: The hadith is about a man who brought a hare he had hunted to 'Abd Allah b. 'Amr, and the latter recalled that the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) did not eat it nor prohibit eating it, as he thought it was menstruating.

Abu Khalid b. al-Huwairith said : 'Abd Allah b. 'Amar was in al-safah. The narrator Muhammed (b. Khalid) said: it is a place in Mecca. A man brought a hare which he had haunted. He said: 'Abd Allah b. 'Amr, what do you say ? He said: It was brought to the Messenger of Allah when I was sitting (with him). He did not eat it, nor did he prohibit to eat it. He thought that it menstruated.
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ خَلَفٍ، حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحُ بْنُ عُبَادَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبِي خَالِدَ بْنَ الْحُوَيْرِثِ، يَقُولُ إِنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَمْرٍو كَانَ بِالصِّفَاحِ - قَالَ مُحَمَّدٌ مَكَانٌ بِمَكَّةَ - وَإِنَّ رَجُلاً جَاءَ بِأَرْنَبٍ قَدْ صَادَهَا فَقَالَ يَا عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَمْرٍو مَا تَقُولُ قَالَ قَدْ جِيءَ بِهَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ وَأَنَا جَالِسٌ فَلَمْ يَأْكُلْهَا وَلَمْ يَنْهَ عَنْ أَكْلِهَا وَزَعَمَ أَنَّهَا تَحِيضُ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about hunting and eating hares in Islam. It narrates an incident where a man brought a hare which he had hunted to 'Abd Allah b. 'Amr, and the latter recalled that the Prophet Muhammad did not eat it nor prohibit eating it, as he thought it was menstruating. This shows us that even though hunting animals for food is permissible in Islam, one should be careful of what they hunt and make sure they are aware of any restrictions on certain animals or types of meat before consuming them. Furthermore, this hadith also teaches us to be mindful of our actions when dealing with animals; we should always treat them with respect and kindness even if we plan on consuming them later on for sustenance purposes. Additionally, this hadith also serves as an example of how Muslims should strive to follow the Sunnah set by Prophet Muhammad PBUH in all aspects of life; from dietary habits to ethical conduct towards animals or other living beings around us.
