عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ قَالَ: قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَرَأَيْتَ أَحَدُنَا أَصَابَ صَيْدًا وَلَيْسَ مَعَهُ سِكِّينٌ أَيَذْبَحُ بِالْمَرْوَةِ وَشِقَّةِ الْعَصَا؟ فَقَالَ: «أَمْرِرِ الدَّمَ بِمَ شِئْتَ وَاذْكُرِ اسْمَ اللَّهِ» . رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد وَالنَّسَائِيّ

‘Adi b. Hatim told that he said, “Tell me, messenger of God; when one of us catches game and has no knife, may he cut its throat with a flint and a splinter of stick?” He replied, “Cause the blood to flow with whatever you take and mention God’s name.” Abu Dawud and Nasa’i transmitted it.

Reported by Abu Dawud (No. 2824), An-Nasa’i (No. 4304, 4401), Ibn Majah (No. 3177) and Ahmad (No. 17539). Cited in Mishkat al-Masabih (No. 4081).
