[Machine] The translation of the provided passage into English is: "Narrated by the Prophet ﷺ , whoever takes an oath or makes a promise and then sees something better than what they had promised, should fulfill what is better."
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ مَنْ حَلَفَ عَلَى يَمِينٍ فَرَأَى غَيرَهَا خَيْرًا مِنْهَا فَلْيَأْتِ بِالَّذِي هُوَ خَيْرٌ
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)
سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْ صَيْدِ الْمِعْرَاضِ فَقَالَ مَا أَصَبْتَ بِحَدِّهِ فَكُلْهُ وَمَا أَصَبْتَ بِعَرْضِهِ فَهُوَ وَقِيذٌ وَسَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ صَيْدِ الْكَلْبِ قَالَ وَكِيعٌ إِذَا أَرْسَلْتَ كَلْبَكَ وَذَكَرْتَ اسْمَ اللهِ فَكُلْ فَقَالَ وَمَا أَمْسَكَ عَلَيْكَ وَلَمْ يَأْكُلْ فَكُلْهُ فَإِنَّ أَخْذَهُ ذَكَاتُهُ وَإِنْ وَجَدْتَ مَعَ كَلْبِكَ كَلْبًا آخَرَ فَخَشِيتَ أَنْ يَكُونَ أَخَذَهُ مَعَهُ وَقَدْ قَتَلَهُ فَلَا تَأْكُلْ فَإِنَّكَ إِنَّمَا ذَكَرْتَ اسْمَ اللهِ عَلَى كَلْبِكَ وَلَمْ تَذْكُرْهُ عَلَى غَيْرِهِ
"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)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَا مِنْكُمْ مِنْ أَحَدٍ إِلَّا سَيُكَلِّمُهُ رَبُّهُ ﷻ لَيْسَ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَهُ تُرْجُمَانٌ فَيَنْظُرُ عَمَّنْ أَيْمَنَ مِنْهُ فَلَا يَرَى إِلَّا شَيْئًا قَدَّمَهُ وَيَنْظُرُ عَمَّنْ أَشْأَمَ مِنْهُ فَلَا يَرَى إِلَّا شَيْئًا قَدَّمَهُ وَيَنْظُرُ أَمَامَهُ فَتَسْتَقْبِلُهُ النَّارُ فَمَنْ اسْتَطَاعَ مِنْكُمْ أَنْ يَتَّقِيَ النَّارَ وَلَوْ بِشِقِّ تَمْرَةٍ فَلْيَفْعَلْ
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)
أَنَّ رَجُلًا خَطَبَ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ مَنْ يُطِعِ اللهَ وَرَسُولَهُ فَقَدْ رَشَدَ وَمَنْ يَعْصِهِمَا فَقَدْ غَوَى فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِئْسَ الْخَطِيبُ أَنْتَ قُلْ وَمَنْ يَعْصِ اللهَ وَرَسُولَهُ
[Machine] On the authority of the Prophet ﷺ, he said, "Whoever among you can protect themselves from the Fire, even if it is with half a date, then let them do so. And whoever cannot find that, then let them do so with a kind word."
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ مَنْ اسْتَطَاعَ مِنْكُمْ أَنْ يَتَّقِيَ النَّارَ وَلَوْ بِشِقِّ تَمْرَةٍ فَمَنْ لَمْ يَجِدْ فَبِكَلِمَةٍ طَيِّبَةٍ
“I asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about Mi’rad. He said: ‘Do not eat unless you pierce (the game).’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3215)
سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْ صَيْدِ الْمِعْرَاضِ فَقَالَ لَا تَأْكُلْ إِلَّا أَنْ يَخْزِقَ
“I said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, we hunt game but we cannot find anything but the sharp edge of a stone or stick (with which to slaughter it).’ He said: ‘Cause the blood to flow with whatever you want, and mention the Name of Allah over it.’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3177)
قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّا نَصِيدُ الصَّيْدَ فَلَا نَجِدُ سِكِّينًا إِلَّا الظِّرَارَ وَشِقَّةَ الْعَصَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَمَرَّ الدَّمَ بِمَا شِئْتَ وَاذْكُرْ اسْمَاللهِ
the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, said: "Whoever swears an oath then sees that something else is better than it, let him do that which is better and offer expiation for what he swore about. " (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 2108)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ حَلَفَ عَلَى يَمِينٍ فَرَأَى غَيْرَهَا خَيْرًا مِنْهَا فَلْيَأْتِ الَّذِي هُوَ خَيْرٌ وَلْيُكَفِّرْ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever among you is able to protect themselves from the Fire, even if it is by giving half of a date in charity, should do so."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ اسْتَطَاعَ مِنْكُمْ أَنْ يَتَّقِيَ النَّارَ وَلَوْ بِشِقِّ تَمْرَةٍ فَلْيَفْعَلْ
"The Messenger of Allah mentioned the Fire, and he turned his face away (as if seeing it), and sought refuge with Allah from it." (One of the narrators) Shu'bah said: "He did that three times, then he said: 'Protect yourselves from the Fire even with half a date, and if you cannot find that, then with a good word."' (Using translation from Nasāʾī 2553)
ذَكَرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ النَّارَ قَالَ ابْنُ جَعْفَرٍ فَتَعَوَّذَ مِنْهَا وَأَشَاحَ بِوَجْهِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ اتَّقُوا النَّارَ وَلَوْ بِشِقِّ تَمْرَةٍ فَإِنْ لَمْ تَجِدُوا فَبِكَلِمَةٍ طَيِّبَةٍ
[Machine] The Prophet of Allah, ﷺ , said: "Beware of the fire (of Hell) even if it is only by donating half a date. If you cannot find anything, then with a good word." Ibn Ja'far also said: "With a word."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ اتَّقُوا النَّارَ وَلَوْ بِشِقِّ تَمْرَةٍ فَإِنْ لَمْ تَجِدُوا فَبِكَلِمَةٍ طَيِّبَةٍ وَقَالَ ابْنُ جَعْفَرٍ فَبِكَلِمَةٍ
I heard Adi b. Hatim say-and he was our neighbour, and our partner and co worker at Nahrain-that he asked Allah's Apostle (may peace he upon him) saying: I let off my dog and find another dog along with my dog and that (any one of them) catches the (game), but I do not know which one had caught it, whereupon he (the Holy Prophet) said: Then don't eat that, for you recited the name of Allah while letting off your dog and did not recite on the other. (Using translation from Muslim 1929h)
أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ أُرْسِلُ كَلْبِي فَأَجِدُ مَعَ كَلْبِي كَلْبًا قَدْ أَخَذَ لَا أَدْرِي أَيُّهُمَا أَخَذَ؟ قَالَ فَلَا تَأْكُلْ فَإِنَّمَا سَمَّيْتَ عَلَى كَلْبِكَ وَلَمْ تُسَمِّ عَلَى غَيْرِهِ
This hadith has been narrated oif the authority of 'Adi b. Hatim through another chain of transmitters. (Using translation from Muslim 1929i)
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ
"The Messenger of Allah said: 'Whoever swears an oath, then sees something better than it, let him do that which is better and leave his oath.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3787)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ حَلَفَ عَلَى يَمِينٍ فَرَأَى غَيْرَهَا خَيْرًا مِنْهَا فَلْيَأْتِ الَّذِي هُوَ خَيْرٌ وَلْيَتْرُكْ يَمِينَهُ
[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."
أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَعَلَّمَنِي الْإِسْلَامَ وَنَعَتَ لِي الصَّلَاةَ وَكَيْفَ أُصَلِّي كُلَّ صَلَاةٍ لِوَقْتِهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ لِي كَيْفَ أَنْتَ يَا ابْنَ حَاتِمٍ إِذَا رَكِبْتَ مِنْ قُصُورِ الْيَمَنِ لَا تَخَافُ إِلَّا اللهَ حَتَّى تَنْزِلَ قُصُورَ الْحِيرَةِ؟ قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَأَيْنَ مَقَانِبُ طَيِّئٍ وَرِجَالُهَا؟ قَالَ يَكْفِيكَ اللهُ طَيِّئًا وَمَنْ سِوَاهَا قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّا قَوْمٌ نَتَصَيَّدُ بِهَذِهِ الْكِلَابِ وَالْبَزَاةِ فَمَا يَحِلُّ لَنَا مِنْهَا؟ قَالَ يَحِلُّ لَكُمْ مَا عَلَّمْتُمْ مِنَ الْجَوَارِحِ مُكَلِّبِينَ تُعَلِّمُونَهُنَّ مِمَّا عَلَّمَكُمُ اللهُ فَكُلُوا مِمَّا أَمْسَكْنَ عَلَيْكُمْ وَاذْكُرُوا اسْمَ اللهِ عَلَيْهِ فَمَا عَلَّمْتَ مِنْ كَلْبٍ أَوْ بَازٍ ثُمَّ أَرْسَلْتَ وَذَكَرْتَ اسْمَ اللهِ عَلَيْهِ فَكُلْ مِمَّا أَمْسَكَ عَلَيْكَ قُلْتُ وَإِنْ قَتَلَ؟ قَالَ وَإِنْ قَتَلَ وَلَمْ يَأْكُلْ مِنْهُ شَيْئًا فَإِنَّمَا أَمْسَكَهُ عَلَيْكَ قُلْتُ أَفَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ خَالَطَ كِلَابَنَا كِلَابٌ أُخْرَى حِينَ نُرْسِلُهَا؟ قَالَ لَا تَأْكُلْ حَتَّى تَعْلَمَ أَنَّ كَلْبَكَ هُوَ الَّذِي أَمْسَكَ عَلَيْكَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّا قَوْمٌ نَرْمِي فَمَايَحِلُّ لَنَا؟ قَالَ يحل لكم ما ذكرتم اسم الله عليه وخزقتم فكلوا منه قال قلت يا رسول الله إنا قوم نرمي بِالْمِعْرَاضِ فَمَا يَحِلُّ لَنَا؟ قَالَ لَا تَأْكُلْ مَا أَصَبْتَ بِالْمِعْرَاضِ إِلَّا مَا ذَكَّيْتَ
[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."
قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ أَرْضِي أَرْضُ صَيْدٍ قَالَ إِذَا أَرْسَلْتَ كَلْبَكَ وَسَمَّيْتَ فَكُلْ مَا أَمْسَكَ عَلَيْكَ كَلْبُكَ وَإِنْ قَتَلَ فَإِنْ أَكَلَ مِنْهُ فَلَا تَأْكُلْ فَإِنَّهُ إِنَّمَا أَمْسَكَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ وَإِذَا أَرْسَلْتَ كَلْبَكَ فَخَالَطَتْهُ أَكْلُبٌ لَمْ تُسَمِّ عَلَيْهَا فَلَا تَأْكُلْ فَإِنَّكَ لَا تَدْرِي أَيُّهَا قَتَلَهُ
I said to ʿAdī b. Ḥātim: A report has reached me about you, and I would like to hear it from you. He (ʿAdī) said: Yes. When I heard of the appearance of the Messenger of God ﷺ, I disliked his emergence with an intense dislike, so I set out until I reached the land of the Byzantines, until I came to Caesar. He said: But I hated that place even more than I hated his appearance, so I said: By God, I will certainly go to this man: if he is lying, it will not harm me, and if he is truthful, I will know.
He said: So I arrived and went to him, and when I entered upon him the people said: ʿAdī b. Ḥātim! ʿAdī b. Ḥātim! He said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to me: “O ʿAdī b. Ḥātim, accept Islam and you will be safe,” three times. I said: I am upon a religion. He said: “I know your religion better than you do.” I said: You know my religion better than I do? He said: “Yes. Are you not from the Rakūsiyyah, and do you not consume the mirbāʿ of your people?” I said: Yes. He said: “That is not lawful for you in your religion.” He said: No sooner had he said it than I humbled myself to it.
Then he said: “Indeed I know what keeps you from Islam: you say, ‘Only the weak among people and those with no power have followed him, and the Arabs have cast them aside.’ Do you know al-Ḥīrah?” I said: I have not seen it, though I have heard of it. He said: “By the One in whose hand is my soul, God will surely bring this matter to completion, until a woman in a howdah sets out from al-Ḥīrah and goes around the House ˹of Allah˺, fearing none but Allah; and the treasures of Kisrā b. Hurmuz will surely be opened.” I said: Kisrā b. Hurmuz? He said: “Yes, Kisrā ibn Hurmuz; and wealth will surely become so abundant that no one will accept it.”
ʿAdī said: I have seen the woman in a howdah set out from al-Ḥīrah and go around the House without any protection; and I was among those who opened the treasures of Kisrā ibn Hurmuz; and by the One in whose hand is my soul, the third will surely come to pass, because the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said it.
قُلْتُ لِعَدِيِّ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ حَدِيثٌ بَلَغَنِي عَنْكَ أُحِبُّ أَنْ أَسْمَعَهُ مِنْكَ. قَالَ: نَعَمْ. لَمَّا بَلَغَنِي خُرُوجُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَرِهْتُ خُرُوجَهُ كَرَاهَةً شَدِيدَةً، فَخَرَجْتُ حَتَّى وَقَعْتُ نَاحِيَةَ الرُّومِ، حَتَّى قَدِمْتُ عَلَى قَيْصَرَ. قَالَ: فَكَرِهْتُ مَكَانِي ذَلِكَ أَشَدَّ مِنْ كَرَاهِيَتِي لِخُرُوجِهِ، فَقُلْتُ: وَاللَّهِ لَأَتِيَنَّ هَذَا الرَّجُلَ، فَإِنْ كَانَ كَاذِبًا لَمْ يَضُرَّنِي، وَإِنْ كَانَ صَادِقًا عَلِمْتُ. قَالَ: فَقَدِمْتُ فَأَتَيْتُهُ،
فَلَمَّا دَخَلْتُ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ النَّاسُ: عَدِيُّ بْنُ حَاتِمٍ، عَدِيُّ بْنُ حَاتِمٍ. قَالَ: فَقَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «يَا عَدِيُّ بْنَ حَاتِمٍ، أَسْلِمْ تَسْلَمْ» ثَلَاثًا. قُلْتُ: إِنِّي عَلَى دِينٍ. قَالَ: «أَنَا أَعْلَمُ بِدِينِكَ مِنْكَ». قُلْتُ: أَنْتَ أَعْلَمُ بِدِينِي مِنِّي؟ قَالَ: «نَعَمْ، أَلَسْتَ مِنَ الرَّكُوسِيَّةِ، وَأَنْتَ تَأْكُلُ مِرْبَاعَ قَوْمِكَ؟» قُلْتُ: بَلَى. قَالَ: «فَإِنَّ ذَلِكَ لَا يَحِلُّ لَكَ فِي دِينِكَ». قَالَ: فَمَا عَدَا أَنْ قَالَهَا حَتَّى تَوَاضَعْتُ لَهَا.
ثُمَّ قَالَ: «أَمَا إِنِّي أَعْلَمُ مَا يَمْنَعُكَ مِنَ الْإِسْلَامِ، تَقُولُ: إِنَّمَا اتَّبَعَهُ ضُعَفَةُ النَّاسِ وَمَنْ لَا قُوَّةَ لَهُ، وَقَدْ رَمَتْهُمُ الْعَرَبُ. أَتَعْرِفُ الْحِيرَةَ؟» قُلْتُ: لَمْ أَرَهَا وَقَدْ سَمِعْتُ بِهَا. قَالَ: «فَوَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ، لَيُتِمَّنَّ اللَّهُ هَذَا الْأَمْرَ، حَتَّى تَخْرُجَ الظَّعِينَةُ مِنَ الْحِيرَةِ، حَتَّى تَطُوفَ بِالْبَيْتِ لَا تَخَافُ إِلَّا اللَّهَ، وَلَيُفْتَحَنَّ كُنُوزُ كِسْرَى بْنِ هُرْمُزَ». قُلْتُ: كِسْرَى بْنُ هُرْمُزَ؟ قَالَ: «نَعَمْ، كِسْرَى بْنُ هُرْمُزَ، وَلَيُبْذَلَنَّ الْمَالُ حَتَّى لَا يَقْبَلَهُ أَحَدٌ».
قَالَ عَدِيٌّ: فَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ الظَّعِينَةَ تَخْرُجُ مِنَ الْحِيرَةِ فَتَطُوفُ بِالْبَيْتِ فِي غَيْرِ جِوَارٍ، وَلَقَدْ كُنْتُ فِيمَنْ فَتَحَ كُنُوزَ كِسْرَى بْنِ هُرْمُزَ، وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَتَكُونَنَّ الثَّالِثَةُ، لِأَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَدْ قَالَهَا.
[Machine] "Whoever believes in us, let them complete the bowing and prostration, for amongst us are the weak, the elderly, the sick, and the traveler. This is how we used to pray with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ."
مَنْ أَمَّنَا فَلْيُتِمَّ الرُّكُوعَ وَالسُّجُودَ فَإِنَّ فِينَا الضَّعِيفَ وَالْكَبِيرَ وَالْمَرِيضَ وَالْعَابِرَ سَبِيلٍ وَذَا الْحَاجَةِ هَكَذَا كُنَّا نُصَلِّي مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ
[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."
قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ أَبِي كَانَ يَصِلُ الرَّحِمَ وَيَفْعَلُ كَذَا وَكَذَا قَالَ إِنَّ أَبَاكَ أَرَادَ أَمْرًا فَأَدْرَكَهُ يَعْنِي الذِّكْرَ
قَالَ قُلْتُ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ عَنْ طَعَامٍ لَا أَدَعُهُ إِلَّا تَحَرُّجًا قَالَ لَا تَدَعْ شَيْئًا ضَارَعْتَ فِيهِ نَصْرَانِيَّةً
قُلْتُ أُرْسِلُ كَلْبِي فَيَأْخُذُ الصَّيْدَ وَلَيْسَ مَعِي مَا أُذَكِّيهِ بِهِ فَأَذْبَحَهُ بِالْمَرْوَةِ وَالْعَصَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَمَرَّ الدَّمَ بِمَا شِئْتَ وَاذْكُرْ اسْمَ اللهِ ﷻ
[Machine] The word "سِمَاكٌ" means "the remembering" in English.
سِمَاكٌ يَعْنِي الذِّكْرَ
[Machine] The passage "الصَّيْدِوَقَالَ أَمْرِرِ الدَّمَ" translates to "He said, pass the blood."
الصَّيْدِوَقَالَ أَمْرِرِ الدَّمَ
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. (Using translation from Muslim 1651e)
سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ مَنْ حَلَفَ عَلَى يَمِينٍ ثُمَّ رَأَى غَيْرَهَا خَيْرًا مِنْهَا فَلَيَأْتِ الَّذِي هُوَ خَيْرٌ
"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)
سَأَلْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّا نُرْسِلُ كِلَابَنَا مُعَلَّمَاتٍ قَالَ كُلْ قَالَ قُلْتُ وَإِنْ قَتَلَ؟ قَالَ وَإِنْ قَتَلَ مَا لَمْ يَشْرَكْهَا كِلَابٌ غَيْرُهَا قَالَ قُلْتُ فَإِنَّا نَرْمِي بِالمِعْرَاضِ قَالَ إِنْ خَزَقَ فَكُلْ وَإِنْ أَصَابَ بِعَرْضِهِ فَلَا تَأْكُلْ
[Machine] I asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about hunting, and he said: "Spill the blood of the prey however you wish, but mention the name of Allah and eat."
سَأَلْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ عَنِ الصَّيْدِ أَصِيدُهُ قَالَ أَنْهِرُوا الدَّمَ بِمَا شِئْتُمْ وَاذْكُرُوا اسْمَ اللهِ وَكُلُوا
[Machine] From the narration of Adi ibn Hatim, who was sitting next to me, I did not ask about this matter. So, I went to him and asked him, and he said, "Yes, the Prophet ﷺ was sent when he was sent, and he mentioned the narration."
عَنْ حَدِيثِ عَدِيِّ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ وَهُوَ إِلَى جَنْبِي لَا أَسْأَلُ عَنْهُ فَأَتَيْتُهُ فَسَأَلْتُهُ فَقَالَ نَعَمْ بُعِثَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ حِينَ بُعِثَ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ
[Machine] When the Prophet ﷺ was sent, I fled until I was in the furthest parts of Rome, and he mentioned the narration.
لَمَّا بُعِثَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَرَرْتُ حَتَّى كُنْتُ فِي أَقْصَى الرُّومِ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ
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)
سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ إِنَّا قَوْمٌ نَتَصَيَّدُ بِهَذِهِ الْكِلَابِ قَالَ إِذَا أَرْسَلْتَ كِلَابَكَ الْمُعَلَّمَةَ وَذَكَرْتَ اسْمَ اللهِ فَكُلْ مِمَّا أَمْسَكْنَ عَلَيْكَ وَإِنْ قَتَلَتْ إِلَّا أَنْ يَأْكُلَ الْكَلْبُ فَإِنْ أَكَلَ فَلَا تَأْكُلْ فَإِنِّي أَخَافُ أَنْ يَكُونَ إِنَّمَا أَمْسَكَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ وَإِنْ خَالَطَهَا كِلَابٌ مِنْ غَيْرِهَا فَلَاتَأْكُلْ
[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."
قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ اتَّقُوا النَّارَ قَالَ فَأَشَاحَ بِوَجْهِهِ حَتَّى ظَنَنَّا أَنَّهُ يَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ اتَّقُوا النَّارَ وَأَشَاحَ بِوَجْهِهِ قَالَ مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثًا اتَّقُوا النَّارَ وَلَوْ بِشِقِّ تَمْرَةٍ فَإِنْ لَمْ تَجِدُوا فَبِكَلِمَةٍ طَيِّبَةٍ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Fear the fire, even if it is with half a date."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ اتَّقُوا النَّارَ وَلَوْ بِشِقِّ تَمْرَةٍ
"The Messenger of Allah said: 'Whoever swears an oath, then sees something better than it, let him do that which is better and leave his oath.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3787)
سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ مَنْ حَلَفَ عَلَى يَمِينٍ ثُمَّ رَأَى غَيْرَهَا خَيْرًا مِنْهَا فَلْيَأْتِ الَّذِي هُوَخَيْرٌ وَلْيَتْرُكْ يَمِينَهُ
[Machine] Fear the fire and do good deeds, for I have heard Abdullah ibn Ma'qil saying that I heard Adiy ibn Hatim saying that I heard the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , saying: "Fear the fire even if it is by giving half a date in charity."
اتَّقُوا النَّارَ وَاعْمَلُوا خَيْرًا وَافْعَلُوا فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ مَعْقِلٍ يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ عَدِيَّ بْنَ حَاتِمٍ يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ اتَّقُوا النَّارَ وَلَوْ بِشِقِّ تَمْرَةٍ
