Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ حَدَّثَنَا الْحَجَّاجُ بْنُ أَرْطَأَةَ عَنْ مَكْحُولٍ عَنْ أَبِي ثَعْلَبَةَ الْخُشَنِيِّ يَقُولُ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّا أَهْلُ صَيْدٍ فَقَالَ إِذَا أَرْسَلْتَ كَلْبَكَ وَذَكَرْتَ اسْمَ اللَّهِ فَأَمْسَكَ عَلَيْكَ فَكُلْ قَالَ قُلْتُ وَإِنْ قَتَلَ قَالَ وَإِنْ قَتَلَ قَالَ قُلْتُ إِنَّا أَهْلُ رَمْيٍ قَالَ مَا رَدَّتْ عَلَيْكَ قَوْسُكَ فَكُلْ قَالَ قُلْتُ إِنَّا أَهْلُ سَفَرٍ نَمُرُّ بِالْيَهُودِ وَالنَّصَارَى وَالْمَجُوسِ وَلَا نَجِدُ غَيْرَ آنِيَتِهِمْ قَالَ فَإِنْ لَمْ تَجِدُوا غَيْرَهَا فَاغْسِلُوهَا بِالْمَاءِ ثُمَّ كُلُوا فِيهَا وَاشْرَبُوا.
English Translation
Yazid told us, al-Hajjaj ibn Artah told us, from Makhul, from Abu Tha'labah al-Khushani, he said: I said: O Messenger of Allah, we are people who hunt. He said: If you release your dog and mention the name of Allah, and it catches [the game] for you, then eat. I said: Even if it kills it? He said: Even if it kills it. I said: We are people who shoot with bows. He said: Whatever your bow returns to you, eat. I said: We are people who travel and pass by Jews, Christians, and Magians, and we find nothing but their vessels [to use]. He said: If you find none besides them, wash them with water, then eat and drink in them.
