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.  

سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قُلْتُ إِنَّا قَوْمٌ نَصِيدُ بِهَذِهِ الْكِلاَبِ فَقَالَ إِذَا أَرْسَلْتَ كِلاَبَكَ الْمُعَلَّمَةَ وَذَكَرْتَ اسْمَ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهَا فَكُلْ مِمَّا أَمْسَكْنَ عَلَيْكَ وَإِنْ قَتَلْنَ إِلاَّ أَنْ يَأْكُلَ الْكَلْبُ فَإِنْ أَكَلَ فَلاَ تَأْكُلْ فَإِنِّي أَخَافُ أَنْ يَكُونَ إِنَّمَا أَمْسَكَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ وَإِنْ خَالَطَهَا كِلاَبٌ مِنْ غَيْرِهَا فَلاَ تَأْكُلْ  

Messenger of Allah (way peace be upon him) said to me: When you let off your dog, recite the name of Allah, and if it catches (game for you) and you find it alive, then slaughter it; if you find it killed and that (your dog) has eaten nothing out of that, (even then) you may eat it; but if you find along with your dog another dog, and (the game an) dead, then don't eat, for you do not know which of the two has killed it. And if you shoot your arrow, recite the name of Allah, but if it (game) goes out of your sight for a day and you do not find on that but the mark of your arrow, then eat that it you so like, but if you find it drowned in water, then don't eat that.  

لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا أَرْسَلْتَ كَلْبَكَ فَاذْكُرِ اسْمَ اللَّهِ فَإِنْ أَمْسَكَ عَلَيْكَ فَأَدْرَكْتَهُ حَيًّا فَاذْبَحْهُ وَإِنْ أَدْرَكْتَهُ قَدْ قَتَلَ وَلَمْ يَأْكُلْ مِنْهُ فَكُلْهُ وَإِنْ وَجَدْتَ مَعَ كَلْبِكَ كَلْبًا غَيْرَهُ وَقَدْ قَتَلَ فَلاَ تَأْكُلْ فَإِنَّكَ لاَ تَدْرِي أَيُّهُمَا قَتَلَهُ وَإِنْ رَمَيْتَ سَهْمَكَ فَاذْكُرِ اسْمَ اللَّهِ فَإِنْ غَابَ عَنْكَ يَوْمًا فَلَمْ تَجِدْ فِيهِ إِلاَّ أَثَرَ سَهْمِكَ فَكُلْ إِنْ شِئْتَ وَإِنْ وَجَدْتَهُ غَرِيقًا فِي الْمَاءِ فَلاَ تَأْكُلْ  

he asked the Messenger of Allah about hunting. He said: "When you release your dog, mention the name of Allah over him, and if you catch up with him and he has not killed (the game), then slaughter it and mention the name of Allah over it. If you catch up with him and he has killed (the game) but has not eaten any of it, then eat, for he caught it for you. If you find that the has eaten some of it, then do not eat any of it for he caught it for himself. If there are other dogs with your dog and they have killed (the game) but have not eaten any of it, then do not eat any of it, because you do not know which of them killed it."  

أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنِ الصَّيْدِ فَقَالَ إِذَا أَرْسَلْتَ كَلْبَكَ فَاذْكُرِ اسْمَ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ فَإِنْ أَدْرَكْتَهُ لَمْ يَقْتُلْ فَاذْبَحْ وَاذْكُرِ اسْمَ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ وَإِنْ أَدْرَكْتَهُ قَدْ قَتَلَ وَلَمْ يَأْكُلْ فَكُلْ فَقَدْ أَمْسَكَهُ عَلَيْكَ فَإِنْ وَجَدْتَهُ قَدْ أَكَلَ مِنْهُ فَلاَ تَطْعَمْ مِنْهُ شَيْئًا فَإِنَّمَا أَمْسَكَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ وَإِنْ خَالَطَ كَلْبُكَ كِلاَبًا فَقَتَلْنَ فَلَمْ يَأْكُلْنَ فَلاَ تَأْكُلْ مِنْهُ شَيْئًا فَإِنَّكَ لاَ تَدْرِي أَيُّهَا قَتَلَ  

[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

[Machine] To the messenger of Allah, when you send your dog, remember the name of Allah. If it catches prey for you and you find it alive, then slaughter it. But if you find it dead, already killed by something else, then you may eat it. And if you find other dogs with it, do not eat, for you do not know which one killed it. And if you throw your arrows and remember the name of Allah upon them, and it catches prey for you and you find it alive, then you may eat it. But if it catches prey and disappears from your sight for a day, and you find only the trace of your arrow, then you may eat it if you wish. But if you find it drowning in water, then do not eat it.  

لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «إِذَا أَرْسَلْتَ كَلْبَكَ فَاذْكُرِ اسْمَ اللهِ فَإِنْ أمْسَكَ عَلَيْكَ فَأَدْرَكْتَهُ حَيًّا فَاذْبَحْهُ وَإِنْ أَدْرَكْتَهُ قَدْ قَتَلَ وَلَمْ يَأْكُلْ فَكُلْ وَإِنْ وَجَدْتَ مَعَهُ كِلَابًا غَيْرَهُ فَلَا تَأْكُلْ فَإِنَّكَ لَا تَدْرِي أَيُّهَا قَتَلَهُ وَإِنْ رَمَيْتَ بِسَهْمِكَ فَاذْكُرِ اسْمَ اللهِ عَلَيْهِ فَإِنْ أمْسَكَ عَلَيْكَ فَكُلْ وَإِنْ وَجَدْتَهُ قَدْ غَابَ عَنْكَ يَوْمًا فَلَمْ تَجِدْ فِيهِ إِلَّا أَثَرَ سَهْمِكَ فَكُلْ إِنْ شِئْتَ فَإِنْ وَجَدْتَهُ غَرِيقًا فِي مَاءٍ فَلَا تَأْكُلْ»  

[Machine] I said, "O Messenger of Allah, my land is hunting land." He said, "If you send your trained dog and you name it, whatever it catches is for you to eat. But if it kills, then it is for the dog to eat and you should not eat from it, for it has caught it for itself. But if you send your dog and you do not name it, and it mingles with other dogs that are not named, then do not eat from it, for you do not know which one of them killed it." I said, "O Messenger of Allah, should I throw my arrow and the game goes away from me tonight?" He said, "If you find your arrow on it and do not find another arrow on it, then eat it."  

قُلْتُ أَيْ رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ أَرْضِي أَرْضُ صَيْدٍ قَالَ «إِذَا أَرْسَلْتَ كَلْبَكَ الْمُعَلَّمَ وَسَمَّيْتَ فَكُلْ مَا أمْسَكَ عَلَيْكَ الْكَلْبُ وَإِنْ قَتَلَ فَأَكَلَ مِنْهُ فَلَا تَأْكُلْ فَإِنَّهُ إِنَّمَا أمْسَكَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ وَإِذَا أَرْسَلْتَ كَلْبَكَ سَمَّيْتَ فَخَالَطَتْهُ أَكْلُبٌ لَمْ تُسَمِّ عَلَيْهَا فَلَا تَأْكُلْ فَإِنَّكَ لَا تَدْرِي أَيُّهُمَا قَتَلَهُ» قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَرْمِي الصَّيْدَ فَيَغِيبُ عَنِّي اللَّيْلَةَ قَالَ «فَإِذَا وَجَدْتَ فِيهِ سَهْمَكَ وَلَمْ تَجِدْ فِيهِ غَيْرَهُ فَكُلْهُ»

He said: "When you release your dog, mention the name of Allah over him, and if you catch up with him and he has not killed (the game), then slaughter it and mention the name of Allah over it. If you catch up with him and he has killed (the game) but has not eaten any of it, then eat, for he caught it for you.

If there are other dogs with your dog and they have killed (the game) but have not eaten any of it, then do not eat any of it, because you do not know which of them killed it." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 4263)  

أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَنِ الصَّيْدِ فَقَالَ «إِذَا أَرْسَلْتَ كَلْبَكَ الْمُعَلَّمَ فَاذْكُرِ اسْمَ اللهِ فَإِنْ أَدْرَكْتَهُ لَمْ يَقْتُلْ فَاذْبَحْ وَاذْكُرِ اسْمَ اللهِ فَإِنْ أَدْرَكْتَهُ قَدْ قَتَلَ وَلَمْ يَأْكُلْ فَكُلْ فَقَدْ أَمْسَكَهُ عَلَيْكَ فَإِنْ وَجَدْتَهُ قَدْ أَكَلَ مِنْهُ فَلَا تَطْعَمْ مِنْهُ شَيْئًا فَإِنَّمَا أَمْسَكَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ وَإِنْ خَالَطَ كَلْبُكَ كِلَابًا فَقَتَلْنَ فَلَمْ يَأْكُلْنَ فَلَا تَأْكُلْ مِنْهُ شَيْئًا فَإِنَّكَ لَا تَدْرِي أَيَّهَا قَتَلَ»  

The Prophet ﷺ said, "If you let loose your hound after a game and mention Allah's Name on sending it, and the hound catches the game and kills it, then you can eat of it. But if the hound eats of it, then you should not eat thereof, for the hound has caught it for itself. And if along with your hound, joined other hounds, and Allah's Name was not mentioned at the time of their sending, and they catch an animal and kill it, you should not eat of it, for you will not know which of them has killed it. And if you have thrown an arrow at the game and then find it (dead) two or three days later and, it bears no mark other than the wound inflicted by your arrow, then you can eat of it. But if the game is found (dead) in water, then do not eat of it." (Using translation from Bukhārī 5484)   

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ إِذَا أَرْسَلْتَ كَلْبَكَ فَسَمَّيْتَ فَأَمْسَكَ عَلَيْكَ فَقَتَلَ فَكُلْ فَإِنْ أَكَلَ مِنْهُ فَلَا تَأْكُلْ فَإِنَّمَا أَمْسَكَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ وَإِذَا خَالَطَ كِلَابًا لَمْ تَذْكُرِ اسْمَ اللهِ عَلَيْهَا فَأَمْسَكْنَ وَقَتَلْنَ فَلَا تَأْكُلْ فَإِنَّكَ لَا تَدْرِي أَيُّهَا قَتَلَ وَإِنْ رَمَيْتَ الصَّيْدَ فَوَجَدْتَهُ بَعْدَ يَوْمٍ أَوْ يَوْمَيْنِ لَيْسَ بِهِ إِلَّا أَثَرُ سَهْمِكَ فَإِنْ شِئْتَ أَنْ تَأْكُلَ فَكُلْ وَإِنْ وَقَعَ فِي الْمَاءِ فَلَا تَأْكُلْ  

I asked Messenger of Allah ﷺ. "We hunt with the help of these hounds." He said, "If you let loose your trained hounds after a game, and mention the name of Allah, then you can eat what the hounds catch for you, even if they killed the game. But you should not eat of it if the hound has eaten of it, for then it is likely that the hound has caught the game for itself. And if other hounds join your hound in hunting the game, then do not eat of it." (Using translation from Bukhārī 5483)   

" إذا أرسلت كلابك المعلمةَ وذكرت اسم الله فكل مما أمسكن عليك وإن قَتلن، إلا أن يأكلَ الكلبُ -فإني أخافُ أن يكون إنما أمسكه على نفسه، وإن خالطها كلابٌ من غيرها فلا تأكل؛ فإنك لا تدرى أيُّها قتل- وإن رميت الصيد فوجدتَه بعد يومٍ أو يومين ليس به إلا أثرُ سهمك فكُل، وإن وقع في الماءِ فلا تأكلْ".
