Prohibition of tying up animals to kill them and mutilating them

Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reports about the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he forbade the ramiyyah, that is, that an animal be shot with arrows (that is, killed by being used for target practice) and then eaten; rather, it is to be slaughtered, and then he may shoot if he wishes.
Ahmad recorded it, and al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat. Its chain contains a narrator, Ibn Lahi'ah, and his narrated hadith is hasan (good).

Sayyiduna Samurah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates this saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "Do not make anything that has a soul a target."
Al-Bazzar recorded it. Its chain contains a narrator, Khallad bin Bazi'; no one has criticised him nor declared him trustworthy. The remaining narrators of this report are thiqat (trustworthy).

Sayyiduna Samurah bin Jundub (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade that animals be tied up (and used for target practice), and (the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) also forbade) eating their meat when they have been tied up (and killed by target practice).
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir. Its chain contains a narrator, Khallad bin Yazid. He named him thus, but the correct name is Khallad bin Bazi', as has already passed in the preceding hadith. No one has criticised him.

Sayyiduna al-Mughirah bin Shu'bah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) passed by some of the Ansar who were shooting arrows at a pigeon, and he said: "Do not make any living creature a target."
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat and al-Mu'jam al-Kabir, and its chain is hasan (good).

Abu Salih al-Hanafi narrates from one of the Companions of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), whom I think was Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both), that he said: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: "Whoever mutilates a living creature and then does not repent of that deed, Allah Almighty will mutilate him on the Day of Resurrection."
Ahmad recorded it, and its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).

Abu al-Ahwas narrates: Sayyiduna Awf bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him), that is, the narrator's father, came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) with sheets of cloth on his body. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: O Awf, is it not so that when your she-camel gives birth, the ears of the young are sound, and then you go to that young one and slit its ears and say: This is a bahirah; or you go to some young one and split its ears and say: This is a surum? Do not do this. The forearm of Allah Almighty is stronger than your forearm, and the razor of Allah Almighty is sharper than your razor. Eat what Allah Almighty has granted you as lawful, and do not make anything of your wealth unlawful. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: O Awf bin Malik, is your slave who obeys you and follows your command more beloved to you? Or is your slave who neither obeys you nor follows your command more beloved to you? Sayyiduna Awf bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) said: No! Rather, my slave who obeys me and follows my command (is certainly more beloved). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: That is how you people are before your Lord.
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir. In this hadith he named the Companion as Sayyiduna Awf bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him). Part of this report is recorded in the "Sunan" as a hadith narrated by Sayyiduna Malik bin Nadlah (may Allah be pleased with him), the father of the narrator named Abu al-Malih. Al-Tabarani's chain contains a narrator, Abd al-Rahman al-Mas'udi; he is thiqah (trustworthy), but he suffered from ikhtilat (confusion in his memory).
