[Machine] Abdullah said, "If one of you throws a projectile at prey and it falls from a mountain causing its death, do not eat it, as I fear that the fall may have killed it. Similarly, if it falls into water and dies, do not eat it, as I fear that the water may have caused its death."  

البيهقي:١٨٩٤٠أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ الْأَرْدَسْتَانِيُّ أنبأ أَبُو نَصْرٍ الْعِرَاقِيُّ ثنا سُفْيَانُ ثنا الْأَعْمَشُ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مُرَّةَ عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ قَالَ

قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ إِذَا رَمَى أَحَدُكُمْ صَيْدًا فَتَرَدَّى مِنْ جَبَلٍ فَمَاتَ فَلَا تَأْكُلُوا فَإِنِّي أَخَافُ أَنْ يَكُونَ التَّرَدِّي قَتَلَهُ أَوْ وَقَعَ فِي مَاءٍ فَمَاتَ فَلَا تَأْكُلْهُ فَإِنِّي أَخَافُ أَنْ يَكُونَ الْمَاءُ قَتَلَهُ

[Machine] Abdullah said, "If one of you throws a hunting tool and it falls from a mountain and it dies, then do not eat it, for I fear that the fall may have caused its death. Or if it falls into water and it dies, then do not eat it, for I fear that the water may have caused its death."
