Hadith 7590
عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ صَيْدِ الْمِعْرَاضِ فَقَالَ مَا أَصَابَ بِحَدِّهِ فَخَزَقَ فَكُلْ وَمَا أَصَابَ بِعَرْضِهِ فَقَتَلَ فَإِنَّهُ وَقِيذٌ فَلَا تَأْكُلْ
Sayyiduna ‘Adi (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that I asked the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about the ruling regarding the game animal that dies due to being struck by the middle thick part of an arrow. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “If the game is struck by the sharp edge of the arrow and it penetrates into it, then eat it. But if the middle part of the arrow strikes and kills the game, then it is like an animal killed with a stick, so do not eat it.”
Hadith 7591
وَعَنْهُ أَيْضًا قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا أَرْسَلْتَ كَلْبَكَ وَسَمَّيْتَ فَخَالَطَ كِلَابًا أُخْرَى فَأَخَذَتْهُ جَمِيعًا فَلَا تَأْكُلْ فَإِنَّكَ لَا تَدْرِي أَيُّهَا أَخَذَهُ وَإِذَا رَمَيْتَ فَسَمَّيْتَ فَخَزَقَتْ فَكُلْ فَإِنْ لَمْ تَخْزَقْ فَلَا تَأْكُلْ وَلَا تَأْكُلْ مِنَ الْمِعْرَاضِ وَلَا تَأْكُلْ مِنَ الْبُنْدُقَةِ إِلَّا مَا ذَكَّيْتَ
It is also narrated from Sayyiduna ‘Adi (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When you send your dog for hunting and say Bismillah, but if this dog joins with other dogs, then do not eat that game, because you do not know which dog killed that game (while you said Bismillah only over your own dog). Similarly, when you shoot an arrow and have said Bismillah, and that arrow pierces the game, then eat it. If it does not pierce and the game dies from the blow of the middle thick part of the arrow, do not eat that game, and do not eat the game hunted by a bullet, unless you slaughter it.
Hadith 7592
وَعَنْهُ أَيْضًا قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّا قَوْمٌ نَرْمِي بِالْمِعْرَاضِ فَمَا يَحِلُّ لَنَا قَالَ لَا تَأْكُلْ مَا أَصَبْتَ بِالْمِعْرَاضِ إِلَّا مَا ذَكَّيْتَ
Narrated from Sayyiduna ‘Adi (may Allah be pleased with him): He said, I asked: O Messenger of Allah! We hunt with the middle thick part of the arrow, is that lawful for us? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whatever you hunt with the middle thick part of the arrow, do not eat it, unless you slaughter it yourself.
