أحمد:١٨٢٤٤حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى عَنْ شُعْبَةَ حَدَّثَنِي سِمَاكٌ عَنْ تَمِيمِ بْنِ طَرَفَةَ عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ مَنْ حَلَفَ عَلَى يَمِينٍ فَرَأَى غَيرَهَا خَيْرًا مِنْهَا فَلْيَأْتِ بِالَّذِي هُوَ خَيْرٌ  

ahmad:18245Yaḥyá b. Saʿīd And Wakīʿ > Zakariyyā > Wakīʿ > ʿĀmir

I asked Messenger of Allah ﷺ about hunting the game with the help of Mi'rad, whereupon he said: If it strikes (the game) with its point, then eat it, but if it strikes flat, that is (the game is) beaten (into death), (then do not eat that) 'Adi further said: I asked him about hunting with the help of a dog, whereupon he said: If that (the dog) catches it (the game) for you and does not eat out of that, then you eat (the game) for Dhakat (slaughtering) of that is its being caught by it (by the dog). But if you find another dog besides it, and you fear that that dog (the second one) had caught it (the game) along with that (your dog) and killed it. then don't eat; for you recited the name of Allah on your dog and did not recite that on the other one (which joined your dog incidentally). (Using translation from Muslim 1929f)

"The Messenger of Allah said: 'There is no one among you but his Lord will speak to him without any intermediary between them. He will look to his right and will not see anything but that which he sent forth. He will look to his left and will not see anything but that which he sent forth. Then he will look in front of him and will be faced with the Fire. So whoever among you can protect himself from fire, even by means of half a date, let him do so.'" (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 185)

that a person recited a sermon before the Messenger of Allah ﷺ thus: He who obeys Allah and His Apostle, he in fact follows the right path, and he who disobeys both of them, he goes astray. Upon this the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: What a bad speaker you are; say: He who disobeys Allah and His Apostle. Ibn Numair added: He in fact went astray. (Using translation from Muslim 870)

[Machine] I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he taught me Islam and described to me the prayer and how to perform it at its appointed time. Then he said to me, "How are you, O ibn Hatim, when you travel from the castles of Yemen, fearing none but Allah, until you reach the castles of Hira?" I said, "O Messenger of Allah, what about the edible plants and their men?" He said, "May Allah suffice you with the edible plants and those without their like." I said, "O Messenger of Allah, we are a people who hunt with these dogs and falcons, so what is permissible for us from them?" He said, "It is permissible for you to eat what you have trained from the animals that Allah has taught you. So eat from what they have caught for you and mention the name of Allah on it. But if you send it and mention the name of Allah on it, then eat from what it has caught for you." I said, "What if it kills?" He said, "Even if it kills, but does not eat from it, then it has caught it for you." I said, "What if our dogs mix with other dogs while we send them?" He said, "Do not eat until you know that your dog is the one that caught it for you." I said, "O Messenger of Allah, we are a people who throw arrows, so what is permissible for us?" He said, "What you have mentioned is permissible for you, mention the name of Allah on it and eat from it." I said, "O Messenger of Allah, we are a people who use the spear, so what is permissible for us?" He said, "Do not eat what you have hit with the spear, except what you have mentioned the name of Allah on."

[Machine] I said, "O Messenger of Allah, my land is a hunting land." He said, "When you send your dog and you mention the name of Allah, whatever it catches will be for you. But if it kills, and you eat from it, then do not let your dog eat from it, for it has only caught for itself. And if you send your dog and it joins with other dogs and catches the prey without mentioning the name of Allah, then do not eat from it, for you do not know which one of them killed it."

[Machine] Yes, when I heard that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had left, I disliked his departure intensely. I left until I reached the vicinity of Rome and he (the Messenger) said (referring to me): "Yazid is in Baghdad until I visited Qaisar (Caesar). I disliked my position more than my dislike for his departure." He said (to me): "So I said, "By Allah, if I did not come to this man, if he is lying, he would not harm me, and if he is truthful, I would know." He said (to me): "So I came and visited him. When I approached, people said, "Adi ibn Hatim!" Adi ibn Hatim!" I entered upon the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he said to me: "O Adi ibn Hatim, accept Islam and you will be saved." I said, "Indeed, I am upon a religion." He said, "I know better about your religion than you." So I said, "Do you know more about my religion than me?" He said, "Yes, are you not from the Rukusiyah (Christian sect) while your people eat carrion?" I said, "Yes." He said, "Indeed, this is not lawful for you in your religion." He said (Adi ibn Hatim): "I did not return any statement to this." He said (the Prophet, ﷺ ): "Indeed, I know what is preventing you from Islam. You say, 'I only follow the weak among the people and those who have no power.' And the Arabs have forsaken them. Do you recognize 'Hayrah' (indecision)?" I said, "I have not seen it, but I have heard about it." He said, "By the One in whose Hand is my soul! Allah will bring this matter to completion until the 'Tha'irah' (confusion) leaves 'Hayrah' (indecision). So that she will circumambulate the Ka'bah without anyone's proximity. And Khosrau ibn Hormoz's treasures will be opened and spent until no one accepts them." Adi ibn Hatim said, "Khosrau ibn Hormoz?" He (the Prophet, ﷺ ) said, "Yes, Khosrau ibn Hormoz. And wealth will be so abundant that no one will accept it." Adi ibn Hatim said, "So, this 'Tha'irah' (confusion) will leave 'Hayrah' (indecision) so that she will circumambulate the Ka'bah without anyone's proximity. Verily, I was among those who opened Khosrau ibn Hormoz's treasures. By the One in whose hand is my soul! You will be the third, for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ has said this."

[Machine] I said, "O Messenger of Allah, my father used to maintain family ties and he did such and such deeds." He replied, "Your father sought something and he attained it, meaning the remembrance."

I said, "I ask you about a food that I only avoid out of piety." He said, "Do not abstain from anything in which you find similarity with Christianity."

I said, "I send my dog to catch a game, but I have nothing with which to slaughter it, so I kill it with a stone or a stick." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Let the blood flow with whatever you wish and mention the name of Allah ﷻ."

You asked me for one hundred dirhams and I am the son of Hatim; by Allah, I will not give you. But then he said: (I would have done that) if I had not heard Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: He who takes an oath, but then finds something better than that, should do that which is better.

"I said: 'O Messenger of Allah! We send our trained dogs to catch game for us.' He said: 'Eat what it catches for you.' I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, and if they kill it?' He said: 'Even if they kill it, as long as they are not accompanied by some other dogs besides them.'" He said: "I said: 'O Messenger of Allah! We hunt with the Mir'ad.' He said: 'Eat of the game what the Mir'ad pierces, but whatever is struck by its broad side, then do not eat it.'" (Using translation from Tirmidhī 1465)

ahmad:18270Muḥammad b. Fuḍayl > Bayān > al-Shaʿbī > ʿAdī b. Ḥātim

I asked Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying: We are a people who hunt with these (trained) dogs, then (what should we do)? Thereupon he (the Holy Prophet) said: When you set of your trained dogs having recited the name of Allah, then eat what these (hounds) have caught for you, even if it (the game) is killed, provided (the hunting dog) has not eaten (any part of the game). If it has eaten (the game), then you don't eat it as I fear that it might have caught for its own self. And do not eat it if other dogs have joined your trained dogs. (Using translation from Muslim 1929b)

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "Fear the fire." He frowned his face until we thought that he was looking at it. Then he said, "Fear the fire," and frowned his face. He repeated this two or three times, saying, "Fear the fire, even if with a piece of date, and if you cannot find that, then with a good word."
