Hadith 19132

Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard the people ofknowledge say that when a man hit game and something else might havecontributed to death, like water or an untrained dog, that game wasnot to be eaten unless it was beyond doubt that it was the arrow ofthe hunter that had killed it by reaching a vital organ, so that itdid not have any life after that.Yahya said that he heard Malik say that there was no harm ineating game when you did not see it die if you found the mark of yourdog on it or your arrow in it as long as it had not remainedovernight. If it had remained overnight, then it was disapproved of toeat it.
