Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said that Said ibn
al-Musayyab said, "There is no harm in whatever you slaughter with a
cutting edge, as long as you are forced to do it by necessity."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said that Abu
Murra, the mawla of Aqil ibn Abi Talib asked Abu Hurayra about a sheep
which was slaughtered and then part of it moved. He ordered him to eat
it. Then he asked Zayd ibn Thabit about it, and he said, "Does a
corpse move?" and he forbade eating its meat.
Malik was asked
about a sheep which fell down and injured itself badly and then its
master reached it and slaughtered it. Blood flowed from it but it did
not move. Malik said, "If he kills it and blood flows from it and its
eyes blink, he should eat it."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi that Abdullah ibn Umar
said, "When a she-camel is slaughtered, what is in its womb is
included in the slaughter if it is perfectly formed and its hair has
begun to grow. If it comes out of its mother's womb, it is slaughtered
so that blood flows from its heart."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Yazid ibn Abdullah ibn Qusayt
al-Laythi that Said ibn al- Musayyab said, "The slaughter of what is
in the womb is included in the slaughter of the mother if it is
perfectly formed and its hair has begun to grow."
ahya related to me from Malik that Nafi said, "I was at al-Juruf
(near Madina) and threw a stone at two birds, and hit them. One of
them died, and Abdullah ibn Umar threw it away, and then went to
slaughter the other one with an adze. It died before he could
slaughter it, so Abdullah threw that one away as well."
Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard that al-Qasim
ibn Muhammad disapproved of eating game that had been killed with
throwing sticks and by clay pellets.
Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard that Said ibn
al-Musayyab disapproved of killing domestic animals that had become
wild by any means that game was slain such as arrows and the like.
Malik said, "I do not see any harm in eating game which is
pierced by a throwing stick in a vital organ.
Allah, the
Blessed, the Exalted! said, 'Oh you who believe! Allah will surely try
you with something of the game that your hands and spears attain.' "
(Sura 5 ayat 97).
Yahya said, "Any game that man obtains by
his hand or by his spear or by any weapon which pierces it and reaches
a vital organ, is acceptable as Allah, the Exalted, has said."
Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard the people of
knowledge say that when a man hit game and something else might have
contributed to death, like water or an untrained dog, that game was
not to be eaten unless it was beyond doubt that it was the arrow of
the hunter that had killed it by reaching a vital organ, so that it
did not have any life after that.
Yahya said that he heard Malik say that there was no harm in
eating game when you did not see it die if you found the mark of your
dog on it or your arrow in it as long as it had not remained
overnight. If it had remained overnight, then it was disapproved of to
eat it.
Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi that Abdullah ibn Umar
said about a trained dog, "Eat whatever it catches for you whether it
eats from it or not."
Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard that Sad ibn Abi
Waqqas had said, when asked about a trained dog killing game, "Eat,
even if only one piece of it remains."
Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard some of the
people of knowledge say that when falcons, eagles, and hawks and their
like, understood as trained dogs understood, there was no harm in
eating what they had killed in the course of hunting, if the name of
Allah had been mentioned when they were sent out.
Malik said,
"The best of what I have heard about retrieving game from the falcon's
talons or from the dog's fangs and then waiting until it dies, is that
it is not halal to eat it."
Malik said, "The same applies to
anything which could have been slaughtered by the hunter when it was
in the talons of the falcon or the fangs of the dog. If the hunter
leaves it until the falcon or dog has killed it, it is not halal to
eat it either". He continued, "The same thing applies to any game hit
by a hunter and caught while still alive, which he neglects to
slaughter before it dies."
Malik said, "It is generally
agreed among us that it is halal to eat the game that a hunting-dog
belonging to magians hunts or kills, if it is sent out by a muslim and
the animal is trained. There is no harm in it even if the muslim does
not actually slaughter it.
It is the same as a muslim using a
magian's knife to slaughter with or using his bow and arrows to shoot
and kill with. The game he shot and the animal he slaughters are
halal. There is no harm in eating them. If a magian sends out a
muslim's hunting dog for game, and it catches it, the game is not to
be eaten unless it is slaughtered by a muslim. That is like a magian
using a muslim's bow and arrow to hunt game with, or like his using a
muslim's knife to slaughter with. It is not halal to eat anything
killed like that.
Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi that Abd ar-Rahman ibn
Abi Hurayra asked Abdullah ibn Umar about eating what was cast up by
the sea and he forbade him to eat it. Then Abdullah turned and asked
for a Qur'an, and read, "The game of the sea and its flesh are halal
for you." Nafi added, "Abdullah ibn Umar sent me to Abdar-Rahman Ibn
Abi Hurayra to say that there was no harm in eating it."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Zayd ibn Aslam that Sad al-
Jari, the mawla of Umar ibn al-Khattab asked Abdullah ibn Umar about
fish which had killed each other or which had died from severe cold .
He said, "There is no harm in eating them.'' Sad said,' 'I then asked
Abdullah ibn Amr ibn al As and he said the same."
Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu'z-Zinad from Abu Salama
ibn Abd ar-Rahman from Abu Hurayra and Zayd ibn Thabit that they saw
no harm in eating what was cast up by the sea.
Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu'z-Zinad from Abu Salama
ibn Abd ar-Rahman that some people from al-Jar came to Marwan ibn al-
Hakam and asked him about eating what was cast up by the sea. He said,
"There is no harm in eating it." Marwan said, "Go to Zayd ibn Thabit
and Abu Hurayra and ask them about it, then come to me and tell me
what they say." They went to them and asked them, and they both said,
"There is no harm in eating it " They returned to Marwan and told him.
Marwan said, "I told you."
Malik said that there was no harm
in eating fish caught by magians, because the Messenger of Allah, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "In the sea's water is
purity, and that which is dead in it is halal. "
Malik said,
"If it is eaten when it is dead, there is no harm in who catches it."

said, ' Aren't you going to use its skin?' They said, 'Messenger of

and grant him peace, said, 'Only eating it is haram.' "
