Al-Fath ar-Rabbani 7588 — on Hunting with a Bow and the Ruling

عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ قُلْتُ إِنَّ أَرْضَنَا أَرْضُ صَيْدٍ فَيَرْمِي أَحَدُنَا الصَّيْدَ فَيَغِيبُ عَنْهُ لَيْلَةً أَوْ لَيْلَتَيْنِ فَيَجِدُهُ وَفِيهِ سَهْمُهُ قَالَ إِذَا وَجَدْتَ سَهْمَكَ وَلَمْ تَجِدْ فِيهِ أَثَرًا غَيْرَهُ وَعَلِمْتَ أَنَّ سَهْمَكَ قَتَلَهُ فَكُلْهُ وَبِلَفْظٍ آخَرَ فَإِذَا وَجَدْتَ فِيهِ سَهْمَكَ وَلَمْ يَأْكُلْ مِنْهُ سَبُعٌ فَكُلْ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna ‘Adi bin Hatim Ta’i (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: I asked the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that our land is very suitable for hunting, if any of us shoots an arrow at game and the game disappears for a day or two, and then it is found and the same arrow is present in it? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When you find your arrow in it and there are no marks of any other arrow, and you know that it was your arrow that killed it, then you may eat it. In another narration, it is stated: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When you see your arrow lodged in it and no beast has eaten from it, then you may eat that game.
