4. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from ibn Khalid from ‘Uthman ibn ‘Isa from Sama‘ah who has said the following
“I once asked him (the Imam) (a.s.), about the case of a man who shoots a wild donkey or a deer which is shot and he searches for it but finds it the next day with his arrow in it. He (the Imam) said, ‘If he knows that his shot had hit it and the arrow is his arrow which has killed it, he then can use it for food, otherwise, he cannot use it for food.’”
عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ سَمَاعَةَ قَالَ
سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ رَمَى حِمَارَ وَحْشٍ أَوْ ظَبْياً فَأَصَابَهُ ثُمَّ كَانَ فِي طَلَبِهِ فَوَجَدَهُ مِنَ الْغَدِ وَ سَهْمُهُ فِيهِ فَقَالَ إِنْ عَلِمَ أَنَّهُ أَصَابَهُ وَ أَنَّ سَهْمَهُ هُوَ الَّذِي قَتَلَهُ فَلْيَأْكُلْ مِنْهُ وَ إِلَّا فَلَا يَأْكُلْ مِنْهُ .
