Jami at-Tirmidhi 3069 (Book 47, Hadith 121) #28718
Eating What Allah Has Killed

SUMMARY: Allah has given us permission to eat what we kill, but not what He has killed.

Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Abbas: "Some people came to the Prophet and they said: 'O Messenger of Allah! Why is it that we can eat what we kill but we can not eat what Allah has killed?' So Allah revealed: So eat of that on which Allah's Name has been mentioned if you are indeed believers in His Ayat".. up to His saying: .And if you obey them, then you would indeed be idolaters (6:121)".
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُوسَى الْبَصْرِيُّ الْحَرَشِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا زِيَادُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْبَكَّائِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَطَاءُ بْنُ السَّائِبِ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ أَتَى أُنَاسٌ النَّبِيَّ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَنَأْكُلُ مَا نَقْتُلُ وَلاَ نَأْكُلُ مَا يَقْتُلُ اللَّهُ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ ‏(‏ فَكُلُوا مِمَّا ذُكِرَ اسْمُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ بِآيَاتِهِ مُؤْمِنِينَ ‏)‏ إِلَى قَوْلِهِ ‏:‏ ‏(‏وَإِنْ أَطَعْتُمُوهُمْ إِنَّكُمْ لَمُشْرِكُونَ ‏)‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ ‏.‏ وَقَدْ رُوِيَ هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ مِنْ غَيْرِ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَيْضًا وَرَوَاهُ بَعْضُهُمْ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ مُرْسَلاً

Obey God's commands , Consume permissible food according to Islamic law
EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the permissibility of eating certain types of food. It was narrated by Abdullah bin Abbas that some people asked the Prophet why they were allowed to eat what they killed, but not what Allah had killed. In response, Allah revealed a verse in the Quran which states that believers should only eat food on which His name has been mentioned. If one does not obey this commandment then they would be considered idolaters. This hadith teaches us that we should only consume food that is permissible according to Islamic law and avoid anything forbidden by it. We must also have faith in God's words and follow His commands if we are true believers in Him and His teachings.
