It is narrated from Hazrat Adi bin Hatim (may Allah be pleased with him) that I submitted to the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! Our area is a hunting region, (please tell me something regarding this)." The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "When you release your dog for hunting and take the name of Allah, then whatever game it catches for you and does not eat itself, eat it. But if it has eaten from it, then do not eat it, because it has caught it for itself. And if you find another dog along with your dog, and you fear that the other dog may have caught and killed the game, then do not eat it, because you do not know who hunted it."
