English translation

1466. Jābir bin 'Abdullāh narrated: "We have been forbidden from the game caught by a Zoroastrian's dog." (Ḍa'if) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Gharīb, we do not know of it except from this route. This is acted upon according to most of the people of knowledge. They do not permit the game caught by the Zoroastrian's dog. Al-Qāsim bin Abī Bazzah (one of the narrators) is Al-Qāsim bin Nāfi' Al-Makkī.

Arabic text

١٤٦٦ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌يُوسُفُ بْنُ عِيسَى، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌وَكِيعٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌شَرِيكٌ ، عَنِ ‌الْحَجَّاجِ ، عَنِ ‌الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ أَبِي بَزَّةَ، عَنْ ‌سُلَيْمَانَ الْيَشْكُرِيِّ، عَنْ ‌جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ: «نُهِينَا عَنْ صَيْدِ كَلْبِ الْمَجُوسِ» هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ، لَا نَعْرِفُهُ إِلَّا مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ. وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا عِنْدَ أَكْثَرِ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ، لَا يُرَخِّصُونَ فِي صَيْدِ كَلْبِ الْمَجُوسِ. وَالْقَاسِمُ بْنُ أَبِي بَزَّةَ هُوَ: الْقَاسِمُ بْنُ نَافِعٍ الْمَكِّيُّ.

Commentary

It is unlawful and prohibited to eat the game hunted by the dogs of those non-Muslims whose slaughter is unlawful for Muslims, except that catch which is brought alive to the master, and a Muslim slaughters it by mentioning the Name of Allāh. However if a Muslim let loose the dog of a non-Muslim, by mentioning the Name of Allāh, the catch will be lawful to eat. If a non-Muslim let loose a dog of a Muslim if the game will be unlawful to eat, except the catch is brought alive and a Muslim slaughters it in the Name of Allāh. (Tuhfat Al-Ahwadhi v.2. p.341.)
