34. Hunting, Slaughter, and What May be Eaten
٣٤۔ كتاب الصيد والذبائح وما يؤكل من الحيوان
I visited the house of al-Hakam b. Ayyub along with my grandfather Anas b. Milik, (and there) some people had made a hen a target and were shooting arrows at her. Thereupon Asas said that Messenger of Allah ﷺ had forbidden tying of the animals (and making them the targets of arrows, etc.).
أَنَسٌ نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنْ تُصْبَرَ الْبَهَائِمُ
This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Shu'ba through other chains of transmitters.
عَنْ شُعْبَةَ بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ لاَ تَتَّخِذُوا شَيْئًا فِيهِ الرُّوحُ غَرَضًا
This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Shu'ba through a different chain of transmitters.
عَنْ شُعْبَةَ بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ مِثْلَهُ
Who has done this? Verily Messenger of Allah ﷺ has invoked curse upon him who does this.
ابْنُ عُمَرَ مَنْ فَعَلَ هَذَا إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَعَنَ مَنْ فَعَلَ هَذَا
Who has done this? Allah has cursed him who does this. Verily Messenger of Allah ﷺ invoked curse upon one who made a live thing the target (of one's marksmanship).
مَرَّ ابْنُ عُمَرَ بِفِتْيَانٍ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ قَدْ نَصَبُوا طَيْرًا وَهُمْ يَرْمُونَهُ وَقَدْ جَعَلُوا لِصَاحِبِ الطَّيْرِ كُلَّ خَاطِئَةٍ مِنْ نَبْلِهِمْ فَلَمَّا رَأَوُا ابْنَ عُمَرَ تَفَرَّقُوا فَقَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ مَنْ فَعَلَ هَذَا لَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنْ فَعَلَ هَذَا إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَعَنَ مَنِ اتَّخَذَ شَيْئًا فِيهِ الرُّوحُ غَرَضًا
Jabir b. 'Abdullah reported that Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade that any beast should be killed after it has been tied.
أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ يَقُولُ نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنْ يُقْتَلَ شَىْءٌ مِنَ الدَّوَابِّ صَبْرًا
