1470. 'Adī bin Ḥātīm narrated: "I asked the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ about the game caught by a trained dog. He said: 'If you mention the Name of Allāh when you send your trained dog, then eat from what it catches for you. But if it eats from it, then do not eat it, for he only caught it for himself.' I said: "O Messenger of Allāh! What do you say about when our dogs get mixed with other dogs.' He said: 'You only mentioned the Name of Allāh over your dog, you did not mention it over the others.'" Sufyān said: "He disliked for him to eat it." (Ṣaḥīh) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This is acted upon according to some of [the people of knowledge among] the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ and others, regarding hunted and slaughtered animals, when they fall in a body of water: It is not to be eaten. Regarding slaughtered animals, some of them said when the pharynx is cut and then it falls in a body of water and dies in it, then it is to be eaten. This is the view of [ʿAbdullāh] Ibn Al-Mubārak. The people of knowledge differed over the case of the dog when it eats from the game it caught. Most of the people of knowledge said when the dog eats from it then do not eat it. This is the view of Sufyān, ʿAbdullāh bin Al-Mubārak, Ash-Shāfiʿī, Aḥmad and Ishāq. Some of the people of knowledge, among the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ and others, permitted eating it even if the dog ate from it.
