حَدَّثَنَا قَبِيصَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ هَمَّامِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ، عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّا نُرْسِلُ الْكِلاَبَ الْمُعَلَّمَةَ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏‏ كُلْ مَا أَمْسَكْنَ عَلَيْكَ ‏"‏‏.‏ قُلْتُ وَإِنْ قَتَلْنَ قَالَ ‏"‏ وَإِنْ قَتَلْنَ ‏"‏‏.‏ قُلْتُ وَإِنَّا نَرْمِي بِالْمِعْرَاضِ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ كُلْ مَا خَزَقَ، وَمَا أَصَابَ بِعَرْضِهِ فَلاَ تَأْكُلْ ‏"‏‏.‏"
Narrated Adi bin Hatim:
I said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! We let loose our trained hounds after a game?" He said, "Eat what they hunt for you." I said, "Even if they killed (the game)?" He replied, 'Even if they killed (the game)." I said, 'We also hit (the game) with the Mi'rad?" He said, "Eat of the animal which the Mi'rad kills by piercing its body, but do not eat of the animal which is killed by the broad side of the Mi'rad.''
