Yahya related to me from Malik, from Ibn Shihab, that Salim ibnAbdullah heard Abu Hurayra relating to Abdullah ibn Umar how a groupof three people in ihram had passed him at ar-Rabadha and had askedhim for a fatwa about eating game which people who were not in ihramwere eating, and he told them that they could eat it. He said, "Then Iwent to Umar ibn al-Khattab in Madina and asked him about it, and hesaid, 'What did you say to them?' and I said, 'I told them that theycould eat it.' Umar said, 'If you had told them anything else I wouldhave done you an injury.' " Translation Not Available

Yahya related to me from Malik, from Zayd ibn Aslam, from Ata ibnYasar, that Kab al-Ahbar was once coming back from Syria with a groupof riders, and at a certain point along the road they found some game-meat and Kab said they could eat it. When they got back to Madina theywent to Umar ibn al-Khattab and told him about that, and he said, "Whotold you you could do that?", and they said, ''Kab.'' He said, "He wasindeed the one I made amir over you until you should return." Later, when they were on the road to Makka, a swarm of locusts passedthem by and Kab told them to catch them and eat them. When they gotback to Umar ibn al-Khattab they told him about this, and he said (toKab), "What made you tell them they could do that?" Kab said, "It isgame of the sea." He said, "How do you know?", and Kab said, "Amir al-muminin, by the One in whose hand my self is, it is only the sneeze ofa fish which it sneezes twice every year." Malik was askedwhether a muhrim could buy game that he had found on the way. Hereplied, "Game that is only hunted to be offered to people performingHajj I disapprove of and forbid, but there is no harm in game that aman has which he does not intend for those in ihram, but which amuhrim finds and buys." Malik said, about someone who hadsome game with him that he had hunted or bought at the time when hehad entered into ihram, that he did not have to get rid of it, andthat there was no harm in him giving it to his family. Maliksaid that it was halal for some one in ihram to fish in the sea or inrivers and lakes, etc. Translation Not Available

Yahya related to me from Malik, from Ibn Shihab, from Ubaydullahibn Abdullah ibn Utba ibn Masud, from Abdullah ibn Abbas, that as-Sabibn Jaththama al-Laythi once gave a wild ass to the Messenger ofAllah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, while he was at al-Abwa, or Waddan, and the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him andgrant him peace, gave it back to him. However, when the Messenger ofAllah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, saw the expression onthe man's face he said, "We only gave it back to you because we are inihram."

Yahya related to me from Malik, from Hisham ibn Urwa, from hisfather, that A'isha, umm al-muminin, said to him, "Son of my sister,it is only for ten nights, so if you get an urge to do something,leave it," by which she meant eating game-meat. Malik saidthat if game was hunted forthe sake of a man who is in ihram and itwas prepared for him and he ate some of it knowing that it had beenhunted for his sake, then he had to pay a forfeit for all of the gamethat had been hunted on his behalf. Malik was asked aboutwhether someone who was forced to eat carrion while he was in ihramshould hunt game and then eat that rather than the carrion, and hesaid, "It is better for him to eat the carrion, because Allah, theBlessed and Exalted, has not given permission for someone in ihram toeither eat game or take it in any situation, but He has madeallowances for eating carrion when absolutely necessary." Malik said, "It is not halal for anyone, whether in ihram or not, toeat game which has been killed or sacrificed by some one in ihram,because, whether it was killed deliberately or by mistake, it was notdone in a halal manner, and so eating it is not halal. I have heardthis from more than one person. Somebody who kills game and then eatsit only has to make a single kaffara, which is the same as forsomebody who kills game but does not eat any of it."

Malik said, "It is not halal to eat any game that has been huntedin the Haram, or has had a dog set after it in the Haram and then beenkilled outside the Haram. Anyone that does that has to pay a forfeitfor what has been hunted. However, some one that sets his dog aftergame outside the Haram and then follows it until it is hunted down inthe Haram does not have to pay any forfeit, unless he set the dogafter the game near to the Haram. The game should not be eaten,however. If he set the dog loose near the Haram then he has to pay aforfeit for the game." Translation Not Available
