Sahih Muslim Book - 34, Hadith - 4974

وحَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ الْعَنْبَرِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي السَّفَرِ ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ ، عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ ، قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنِ الْمِعْرَاضِ ، فَقَالَ: إِذَا أَصَابَ بِحَدِّهِ فَكُلْ ، وَإِذَا أَصَابَ بِعَرْضِهِ فَقَتَلَ ، فَإِنَّهُ وَقِيذٌ ، فَلاَ تَأْكُلْ وَسَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنِ الْكَلْبِ ، فَقَالَ: إِذَا أَرْسَلْتَ كَلْبَكَ ، وَذَكَرْتَ اسْمَ اللهِ فَكُلْ ، فَإِنْ أَكَلَ مِنْهُ فَلاَ تَأْكُلْ ، فَإِنَّهُ إِنَّمَا أَمْسَكَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ ، قُلْتُ : فَإِنْ وَجَدْتُ مَعَ كَلْبِي كَلْبًا آخَرَ ، فَلاَ أَدْرِي أَيُّهُمَا أَخَذَهُ ؟ قَالَ: فَلاَ تَأْكُلْ ، فَإِنَّمَا سَمَّيْتَ عَلَى كَلْبِكَ ، وَلَمْ تُسَمِّ عَلَى غَيْرِهِ.

It was narrated that 'Adiyy bin Hatim said: "I asked the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) about the Mi'rad. He said: 'If its point strikes (the game), then eat, but if its edge (i.e., side - ways) strikes it and kills it, then it has been beaten to death, so do not eat it.' And I asked the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) about dogs. He said: 'If you release your dog and mention the Name of Allah, then eat, but if he has eaten part of it then do not eat, for he has caught it for himself.' I said: 'What if I find another dog with my dog, and I do not know which of them caught it?' He said: 'Do not eat, for you mentioned the Name of Allah over your dog but you did not mention the Name of Allah over any other."'
