Hazrat Ata says that if two people together hunt an animal, then only one expiation is obligatory upon them, but if they eat from it, then a separate expiation is obligatory upon each of them.

Hasan says that expiation is obligatory upon each of them.

Hazrat Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) was asked: What if a group of people walking on foot hunt (an animal)? He replied: Only one penalty (compensation) is required from all of them.

Hazrat Zuhri says that if two people together hunt an animal, then the penalty for it is equally obligatory on both.

Hazrat Sha'bi says that a separate punishment is obligatory for each one, and Hazrat Hammad says that one punishment is sufficient on behalf of both. The narrator says that I mentioned Hazrat Sha'bi's statement to Hazrat Harith; he said that the correct statement is the one made by Hazrat Hammad.

15939 - And Hammad said: Both of them receive the same recompense.

15940 - He said: So I informed Al-Harith of what Al-Sha'bi had said. He said: The statement is as Hammad said (1).
