72.2 The game killed by the Mi'rad

٧٢۔٢ باب صَيْدِ الْمِعْرَاضِ

[Machine] Ibn Umar said about the woman killed by a catapult, "That is the woman who was struck by the catapult." Salim, Al-Qasim, Mujahid, Ibrahim, Ata, and Al-Hassan all detested it. Al-Hassan disliked throwing the catapult in villages and populated areas, but he didn't see any problem with it elsewhere.

وَقَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ فِي الْمَقْتُولَةِ بِالْبُنْدُقَةِ تِلْكَ الْمَوْقُوذَةُ. وَكَرِهَهُ سَالِمٌ وَالْقَاسِمُ وَمُجَاهِدٌ وَإِبْرَاهِيمُ وَعَطَاءٌ وَالْحَسَنُ، وَكَرِهَ الْحَسَنُ رَمْيَ الْبُنْدُقَةِ فِي الْقُرَى وَالأَمْصَارِ، وَلاَ يَرَى بَأْسًا فِيمَا سِوَاهُ.

I asked Messenger of Allah ﷺ about the Mi'rad. He said, "If you hit the game with its sharp edge, eat it, but if the Mi'rad hits the game with its shaft with a hit by its broad side do not eat it, for it has been beaten to death with a piece of wood. (i.e. unlawful)." I asked, "If I let loose my trained hound after a game?" He said, "If you let loose your trained hound after game, and mention the name of Allah, then you can eat." I said, "If the hound eats of the game?" He said "Then you should not eat of it, for the hound has hunted the game for itself and not for you." I said, "Some times I send my hound and then I find some other hound with it?" He said "Don't eat the game, as you have mentioned the Name of Allah on your dog only and not on the other."  

البخاري:٥٤٧٦حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي السَّفَرِ عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَدِيَّ بْنَ حَاتِمٍ ؓ قَالَ

سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنِ الْمِعْرَاضِ فَقَالَ إِذَا أَصَبْتَ بِحَدِّهِ فَكُلْ فَإِذَا أَصَابَ بِعَرْضِهِ فَقَتَلَ فَإِنَّهُ وَقِيذٌ فَلاَ تَأْكُلْ فَقُلْتُ أُرْسِلُ كَلْبِي قَالَ إِذَا أَرْسَلْتَ كَلْبَكَ وَسَمَّيْتَ فَكُلْ قُلْتُ فَإِنْ أَكَلَ قَالَ فَلاَ تَأْكُلْ فَإِنَّهُ لَمْ يُمْسِكْ عَلَيْكَ إِنَّمَا أَمْسَكَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ قُلْتُ أُرْسِلُ كَلْبِي فَأَجِدُ مَعَهُ كَلْبًا آخَرَ قَالَ لاَ تَأْكُلْ فَإِنَّكَ إِنَّمَا سَمَّيْتَ عَلَى كَلْبِكَ وَلَمْ تُسَمِّ عَلَى آخَرَ
