Hadith #336
Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ أَخْبَرَنَا مُجَالِدٌ عَنْ الشَّعْبِيِّ عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ
رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ صَيْدِ الْكَلْبِ فَقَالَ إِذَا أَرْسَلْتَ كَلْبَكَ الْمُعَلَّمَ فَسَمَّيْتَ عَلَيْهِ فَأَخَذَ فَأَدْرَكْتَ ذَكَاتَهُ فَذَكِّهِ وَإِنْ قَتَلَ فَكُلْ فَإِنْ أَكَلَ مِنْهُ فَلَا تَأْكُلْ

English Translation
ʿAdī ibn Ḥātim narrated: I asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about game caught by a dog. He said: 'If you release your trained dog and you mention the name of Allah, and it catches the game and you reach it while it is still alive, slaughter it. And if it kills it, then eat — as long as the dog has not eaten from it. If it has eaten from it, do not eat.'
