أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ ، عَنْ عَامِرٍ ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ صَفْوَانَ : أَنَّهُ أَصَابَ أَرْنَبَيْنِ ، وَلَمْ يَجِدْ حَدِيدَةً يَذْبَحُهُمَا بِهِ ، فَذَكَّاهُمَا بِمَرْوَةٍ ، فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنِّي اصْطَدْتُ أَرْنَبَيْنِ , فَلَمْ أَجِدْ حَدِيدَةً أُذَكِّيهِمَا بِهِ فَذَكَّيْتُهُمَا بِمَرْوَةٍ , أَفَآكُلُ ؟ ، قَالَ : " كُلْ " .
´It was narrated from Muhammad bin Safwan that:` he caught two rabbits and he could not find a knife with which to slaughter then, so he slaughtered them with Marwah. Then he came to the Prophet and said: "O Mesenger of Allah! I caught two rabbits but I could not find a knife with which to slaughter them, so I slaughtered them with Marwah;l can I eat them?" He said: "Eat (them)."

Explanation & Benefits
Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
The purpose of slaughtering is to let the blood flow; whatever instrument is used to make the blood flow is permissible, provided that it is sharp-edged and the slaughter is done in one swift motion. Pressure should not be applied to the throat; rather, it should be cut swiftly so that the slaughtered animal experiences the least possible pain.

➌ Even a small gift should be given and accepted.
➍ It is not necessary for the tool used for slaughtering to be made of iron.
