Hazrat Abu Razeen narrates that a man brought a rabbit to the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم . He said, "I shot a rabbit with an arrow, but I could not find it until night fell. In the morning, I found the rabbit and my arrow was in it. What is the ruling regarding this?" The Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم said, "Did you kill it at that time, or did it die later due to some other cause?" He replied, "No, it died later." The Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم said, "The night is a great creation of Allah; no one knows its reality except its Creator. Perhaps something else killed the rabbit, so throw it away."
