I asked Allah's Messenger (ﷺ). "We hunt with the help of these hounds." He said, "If you let loose your
trained hounds after a game, and mention the name of Allah, then you can eat what the hounds catch
for you, even if they killed the game. But you should not eat of it if the hound has eaten of it, for then
it is likely that the hound has caught the game for itself. And if other hounds join your hound in
hunting the game, then do not eat of it."
