[Machine] He heard Abu Tha'labah al-Khushani saying, "I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, 'O Messenger of Allah, our land is a hunting ground. I hunt with a trained dog and with a dog that is not trained. Inform me about what is permissible for us from what is forbidden regarding that.' He replied, 'Regarding what your trained dog caught, eat from what it held and mention the name of Allah. As for what your untrained dog caught, you have reached its prey, so eat from it. And if you did not reach its prey, then do not eat from it.'"

I came to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said: Messenger of Allah, we are in the land of the People of the Book, (so) we eat in their utensils, and (live) in a hunting region. where I hunt with, the help of my bow, and hunt with my trained dog, or with my dog which is not trained. So inform me what is lawful (Halal) for us out of that. He (the Holy Prophet) said: Regarding what you have mentioned of the fact that you live in the land belonging to the People of the Book and so you eat in their utensils, but if you can get utensils other than theirs, then don't eat in them; but if you do not find any, then wash them and eat in them. And regarding what you have mentioned about (your living) in a hunting region, what you hunt, (strike) with the help of your bow, recite the name of Allah (while shooting an arrow) and then eat; and what you catch with the help of your trained dog, recite the name of Allah (while letting oil) the dog and then eat it, and what you get with the help of your untrained dog, (if you find it alive) and slaughter it (according to the law of the Shari'ah), eat it.
