A person in ihram eating game hunted by someone not in ihram

It is narrated from Abdullah bin Abi Qatadah that Sayyiduna Abu Qatadah (may Allah be pleased with him) was with some people in ihram while he himself was not in ihram. His companions saw a wild ass; his companions did not point it out to him, but he saw it himself. So he took a whip from some of them and brought the animal down. Then they ate from it and also carried some of its meat with them. Then they met the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and asked him (peace and blessings be upon him) about it. He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Did any of you point to this game?" The people said: "No." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Then eat from it."

Sayyiduna Abd al-Rahman (may Allah be pleased with him) said: We were with Sayyiduna Talhah bin Ubaydullah (may Allah be pleased with him) on the journey of Hajj, and we were in the state of ihram. A bird (that had been hunted) was brought to us as a gift while Talhah was resting. Some of us ate it, and some held back and did not eat it. When Talhah woke up, the people mentioned this to him. He said those who had eaten were right, and said: "We ate it with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)."

Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) saw no harm in eating the meat of a bird that had been hunted by someone other than the person in ihram.

Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: When I returned from Bahrain, I met a group of people from Iraq. They asked me whether a person in ihram may eat game hunted by a person not in ihram. I gave them a fatwa that they may eat it. Then I came to Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) and asked his opinion about it. He said: "(You gave the right fatwa.) Had you given them any fatwa other than this, no one would ever have taken a fatwa from you again."

It is narrated from Urwah that Sayyiduna al-Zubayr bin al-Awwam (may Allah be pleased with him) used to take the dried meat of wild game as provision for the journey while in the state of ihram.

Al-Hasan and Ata saw no harm in a person in ihram eating game hunted by a person not in ihram, as long as that person did not hunt it for him.

And (it is reported) from Ata, through Abd al-Malik, that they both did not see any harm in a person in ihram eating what a person not in ihram had hunted, as long as he had not hunted it for his sake, or they said: for him.

Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) was asked about a group in ihram who met a group not in ihram who had the meat of hunted game with them: may they buy it from them, or may the others feed it to them? He said: "There is no harm in it."

It is narrated from Yazid bin Abdullah bin al-Shikhkhir that a man said: While we were in ihram, we bought the leg of a (wild) ass from a group not in ihram. Then we passed by Sayyiduna Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) and asked him. He said: "I do not think that you have done anything sinful; there is no harm in it."
