Hadith #516
Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ فُضَيْلٍ عَنْ بَيَانٍ عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّه
ِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقُلْتُ إِنَّا قَوْمٌ نَتَصَيَّدُ بِهَذِهِ الْكِلَابِ قَالَ إِذَا أَرْسَلْتَ كِلَابَكَ الْمُعَلَّمَةَ وَذَكَرْتَ اسْمَ اللَّهِ فَكُلْ مِمَّا أَمْسَكْنَ عَلَيْكَ وَإِنْ قَتَلَتْ إِلَّا أَنْ يَأْكُلَ الْكَلْبُ فَإِنْ أَكَلَ فَلَا تَأْكُلْ فَإِنِّي أَخَافُ أَنْ يَكُونَ إِنَّمَا أَمْسَكَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ وَإِنْ خَالَطَهَا كِلَابٌ مِنْ غَيْرِهَا فَلَا تَأْكُلْ

English Translation
Muḥammad ibn Fuḍayl narrated to us, from Bayān, from al-Shaʿbī, from ʿAdī ibn Ḥātim رضي الله عنه who said: I asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, 'We are people who hunt with these dogs.' He said: 'When you send your trained dogs and mention Allah's name, eat of what they catch for you, even if they kill — unless the dog eats. If it eats, don't eat, for I fear it only caught it for itself. And if other dogs join them, don't eat.'
