A Man Shoots a Prey, Misses it but Hits another

مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ عَبَّادِ بْنِ صُهَيْبٍ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) عَنْ رَجُلٍ سَمَّى وَ رَمَى صَيْداً فَأَخْطَأَهُ وَ أَصَابَ آخَرَ فَقَالَ يَأْكُلُ مِنْهُ .
1. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from ibn Mahbub from ‘Abbad ibn Suhayb who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, about the case of a man who shoots a prey and mentions the name of Allah, but misses it and hits another one. He (the Imam) said, ‘He can use it for food.’”
