It was narrated that ‘Adiyy bin Hatim said: “I said: ‘Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم, I release my trained dogs and they catch (the game) for me — should I eat of it?’ He said: ‘If you release your trained dogs, and mention the name of Allah, and they catch it for you, then eat.’ I said: ‘Even if they kill it?’ He said: ‘Even if they kill it, so long as another, strange dog has not joined them.’ I said: ‘And I shoot the game with the Mi ‘rad and I hit it — should I eat?’ He said: ‘If you shoot the Mir’al and say the name of Allah, and it penetrates (the target), then eat, but if it hits it with its broad edge, then do not eat it.” (Sahih)
