Sunan at-Tirmithiy كتاب الصيد والذبائح باب ما جاء فيمن يرمى الصيد فيجده ميتا فى الماء
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ أَخْبَرَنِى عَاصِمٌ الأَحْوَلُ عَنِ الشَّعْبِىِّ عَنْ عَدِىِّ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَنِ الصَّيْدِ فَقَالَ إِذَا رَمَيْتَ بِسَهْمِكَ فَاذْكُرِ اسْمَ اللَّهِ فَإِنْ وَجَدْتَهُ قَدْ قَتَلَ فَكُلْ إِلاَّ أَنْ تَجِدَهُ قَدْ وَقَعَ فِى مَاءٍ فَلاَ تَأْكُلْ فَإِنَّكَ لاَ تَدْرِى الْمَاءُ قَتَلَهُ أَوْ سَهْمُكَ. قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ.
When the Messenger of God, peace and blessings of God be upon him, was asked about game he replied, "When you shoot your arrow, invoke the name of God. If you find that it has killed (the game), then eat; unless you find that it (the game) has fallen into water, then do not eat, since you do not know whether it was the water that killed it or your arrow (1)." Footnotes: (1) If, however, it is proven to the hunter that the animal fell into the water after its death by his arrow, then it is permissible to eat its meat. Click on ḥadīth to read more
