Sunan Abi Dawud 2857

Muhammad ibn al-Minhal al-Darir narrated to us: Yazid ibn Zuray' narrated to us: Habib al-Mu'allim narrated to us, from 'Amr ibn Shu'ayb, from his father, from his grandfather, that a Bedouin called Abu Tha'labah said: ‘Messenger of Allah, I have trained hunting dogs; advise me about the game they catch.’ The Prophet (ﷺ) replied: ‘If you have trained hunting dogs, eat what they catch for you.’ He asked: ‘Whether it has been ritually slaughtered or not?’ He replied: ‘Yes.’ He asked: ‘Even if the dog has eaten from it?’ He replied: ‘Even if it has eaten from it.’ The man said: ‘Messenger of Allah, advise me about my bow.’ He replied: ‘Eat what your bow brings back to you.’ He asked: ‘Whether it has been ritually slaughtered or not?’ He replied: ‘Yes.’ He asked: ‘Even if it disappears from my sight?’ He replied: ‘Even if it disappears from your sight, provided it has not begun to smell or you do not find on it a mark other than your arrow.’ He asked: ‘Advise me about the vessels of the Magians if we are compelled to use them.’ He replied: ‘Wash them and eat from them.’’
