12. Sacrifices
١٢۔ كِتَابُ الضَّحَايَا
"I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, I release my dog and he catches the game, but I cannot find anything with which to slaughter it, so I slaughter it with a sharp-edged stone or a stick.' He said: 'Shed the blood with whatever you want, and mention the name of Allah."" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 4304)
عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي أُرْسِلُ كَلْبِي فَيَأْخُذُ الصَّيْدَ فَلَا أَجِدُ مَا أَذْبَحُهُ بِهِ فَأَذْبَحُهُ بِالْمَرْوَةِ وَالْعَصَا؟ قَالَ «أَهْرِقِ الدَّمَ بِمَا شِئْتَ وَاذْكُرِ اسْمَ اللهِ»
"A man form among the Ansar had a she-camel which used to graze in front of Uhud. Something happened to it, and he slaughtered it with a stake,"- (Ayyub, one of the narrators, said) I said to Zaid:' A stake of wood or of iron?" He said "No of wood."- "Then he went to the Prophet and asked him, and he told him to eat it." (Sahih ) (Using translation from Nasāʾī 4402)
كَانَتْ لِرَجُلٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ نَاقَةٌ تَرْعَى فِي قِبَلِ أَحَدٍ فَعَرَضَ لَهَا فَنَحَرَهَا بِوَتَدٍ فَقُلْتُ لِزَيْدٍ وَتَدٌ مِنْ خَشَبٍ أَوْ حَدِيدٍ؟ قَالَ «لَا بَلْ مِنْ خَشَبٍ فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَسَأَلَهُ» فَأَمَرَهُ بِأَكْلِهَا
