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.)
