Al-Lu'lu Wal-Marjan 1255 — The Book of Hunting and Slaughtering, and What Type of Animals Can Be Eaten.

`Adi bin Hatim Narrated from:

I asked Allâh's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم "We hunt with the help of these hounds." He said, "If you let loose your trained hounds after a game, and mention the Name of Allâh, then you can eat what the hounds catches for you, even if they killed the game. But you should not eat of it if the hound has eaten of it, for, then it is likely that the hound has caught the game for itself. And if other hounds join your hound in hunting the game, then do not eat of it." ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 392, Vol. 7 )
