'Adi b. Hatim reported: I said: Messenger of Allah, I set
off trained dogs and they catch for me (the game) and I recite the came of
Allah over it (I slaughter the game by reciting Bismillah-i-Allah-o-Akbar),
whereupon he said: When you set off your trained dogs and you recited the
name of Allah (while setting them off), then eat (the game). I said: Even if
them (the trained dogs) kill that (the game)? He (the Holy Prophet) said:
Even if these kill, but (on the condition) that no other dog, which you did
not set off (along with your dogs), participates (in catching the game). I
said to him: I throw Mi'rad, a heavy featherless blunt arrow, for hunting
and killing (the game). Thereupon he said: When you throw Mi'rad, and it
pierces, then eat, but if it falls flatly (and beats the game to death),
then do not eat that.

'Adi b. Hatim reported: I asked Allah's Messenger (may
peace be upon him) saying: We are a people who hunt with these (trained)
dogs, then (what should we do)? Thereupon he (the Holy Prophet) said: When
you set of your trained dogs having recited the name of Allah, then eat what
these (hounds) have caught for you, oven if it (the game) is killed,
provided (the hunting dog) has not eaten (any part of the game). If it has
eaten (the game), then you don't eat it as I fear that it might have caught
for its own self. And do not eat in case other dogs have joined your trained
dogs.

'Adi b. Hatim reported that he asked the Messenger of
Allah (may peace be upon him) about (hunting) with the help of an arrow
having a stub end. He said: If it strikes (the game) with its point, then
eat, but if it strikes flatly and it dies, that is Waqidh (beaten into
death), do not eat that. I asked the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon
him) about (hunting with the help of) dogs, whereupon he said. When you send
your dog (for hunting) reciting the name of Allah, then eat (the game), but
if some part of it is eaten (by the dogs, then do not eat that, for it (your
dog) has caught that (the-game) for itself. I (again) said: If I find along
with my dog another dog, and do not know which of (the dogs) has caught (the
game). then (what should I do) ? Thereupon he ('Allah's Messenger) said:
Then don't eat that, for you recited the name of Allah on your dog and not
on the other one.

that) 'Adi further said: I asked him about hunting with the help of a dog,
whereupon he said: If that (the dog) catches it (the game) for you and does
not eat out of that, then you eat (the game) for Dhakat (slaughtering) of
that is its being caught by it (by the dog). But if you find another dog
besides it, and you fear that that dog (the second one) had caught it (the
game) along with that (your dog) and killed it. then don't eat; for you
recited the name of Allah on your dog and did not recite that on the other
one (which joined your dog incidentally).

Jabir reported: Allah's Messenger (may peace he upon him)
sent us (on an expedition) and appointed Abu 'Ubaida our chief that we might
intercept a caravan of the Quraish and provided us with a bag of dates. And
he found for us nothing besides it. Abu Ubaida gave each of us one date
(everyday). I (Abu Zubair, one of the narrators) said: What did you do with
that? He said: We sucked that just as a baby sucks and then drank water over
that, and it sufficed us for the day until night. We beat off leaves with
the help of our staffs, then drenched them with water and ate them. We then
went to the coast of the sea, and there rose before us on the coast of the
sea something like a big mound. We came near that and we found that it was a
beast, called al-'Anbar (spermaceti whale). Abu 'Ubaida said. It is dead. He
then said: No (but it does not matter), we have been sent by the Messenger
of Allah (may peace be upon him) in the path of Allah and you are hard
pressed (on account of the scarcity of food), so you eat that. We three
hundred in number stayed there for a month, until we grew bulky. He (Jabir)
said: I saw how we extracted pitcher after pitcher full of fat from the
cavity of its eye, and sliced from it compact piece of meat equal to a bull
or like a bull. Abu 'Ubaida called forth thirteen men from us and he made
them sit in the cavity of its eye, and he took hold of one of the ribs of
its chest and made it stand and then saddled the biggest of the camels we
had with us and it passed under it (the arched rib), and we provided
ourselves with pieces of boiled meat (especially for use in our journey).
When we came back to Medina, we went to Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon
him) and made a mention of that to him, whereupon he said: That was a
provision which Allah had brought forth for you. Is there any piece of meat
(left) with you, so tnat you give to us that ? He (Jabir) said: We sent to
Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) tome of that (a piece of meat) and
he ate it.

our chief (leader) was 'Ubaida b. al-Jarrah. We were on the look out for a
caravan of the Quraish. So we stayed on the coast for half a month, and were
so much afflicted by extreme hunger that we (were obliged) to eat leaves.
That is why it was called the Detachment of the Leaves. The ocean cast out
for us an animal which was called al-'Anbar (whale). We ate of that for half
of the month and rubbed its fat on our (bodies) until our bodies became
stout. Abu 'Ubaida caught hold of one of its ribs and fixed that up. He then
cast a glance at the tallest man of the army and the highest of the camels.
and then made him ride over that, and that-tnan passed beneath it (the rib),
and many a man could sit in its eye-socket, and we extracted many pitchers
of fat from the cavity of its eye. We had small bags containing dates with
us (before finding the whale). 'Ubaida gave every person amongst us a
handful of dates (and when the provision ran short), he then gave each one
of us one date. And when that (stock) was exhausted, we felt its loss.

Yazid b. al-Asamm reported: A newly wedded person of
Medina invited us to a wedding feast, and he served us thirteen lizards.
There were those who ate it and those who abandoned it. I met Ibn 'Abbas the
next day, and informed him (about this) in the presence of many persons.
Some of them said that the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) had
observed: I neither eat it nor forbid (anyone) from eating it, nor declare
it to be unlawful. Thereupon Ibn 'Abbas said: Sad it is what you say !
Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) has not been sent, but (to declare
in clear words) the lawful and the unlawful (things). We were once with
Allah's Messenger (may peace be.upon him) as he was with Maimuna, and there
were with him al-Fadl b. 'Abbas, Khalid b. Walid and some women (also) when
a tray of food containing flesh was presented to him. As Allah's Apostle
(may peace be upon him) was about to eat that, Maimuna said: It is the flesh
of the lizard. He withdrew his hand saying: That is the flesh which I never
eat; but he said to them (those who were present there): You may eat.
Al-Fadl ate out of that, so did Khalid b Walid, and the women. Maimuna
(however) said: I do not eat anything but that which Allah's Messenger (may
peace be upon him) eats.

Apostle (may peace be upon him) did not declare it to be unlawful. Allah,

Abu Sa'id reported that a person said: Messenger of
Allah, we live in a land abounding in lizards, so what do you command or
what verdict you give (about eating of it) ? Thereupon he said: It was
mentioned to me that a people from among Bani Isra'il were distorted (so
there is a likelihood that those people might have been distorted in the
shape of lizards). So he neither commanded (us to eat that) nor forbade
(us). Abu Sa'id said: After some time Umar said: Allah, the Exalted and
Majestic, has made it (a source of) benefit for more than one (person), for
it is the common diet of shepherds. Had it been with me, I would have eaten
that. Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) disliked it.

Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) and said: I live in a low land
abounding in lizards, and these are the common diet of my family, but he
(the Holy Prophet) did not make any reply. We said to him: Repeat it (your
problem) and so he repeated it, but he did not make any reply. (It was
repeated thrice ) Then Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) called him
out at the third time saying: O man of the desert, verily Allah cursed or
showed wrath to a tribe of Bani Isra'il and distorted them to beasts which
move on the earth. I do not know, perhaps this (lizard) may be one of them.
So I do not eat it, nor do I prohibit the eating of it.
