أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الأَعْلَى وَإِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ عَنْ خَالِدٍ عَنْ شُعْبَةَ عَنْ سِمَاكٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ مُرِّيَّ بْنَ قَطَرِيٍّ عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ قَالَ
قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي أُرْسِلُ كَلْبِي فَآخُذُ الصَّيْدَ فَلاَ أَجِدُ مَا أُذَكِّيهِ بِهِ فَأَذْبَحُهُ بِالْمَرْوَةِ وَبِالْعَصَا قَالَ أَنْهِرِ الدَّمَ بِمَا شِئْتَ وَاذْكُرِ اسْمَ اللَّهِ ﷻ
