ibn ‘Abbās—may Allah be pleased with him. It is documented in al-Irwā’ under number (2481).
34 — (“‘Adī ibn Hātim al-Tā’ī said: I said, ‘O Messenger of Allah, we hunt game but have no knife—only sharp-edged stones (that is, a sharpened piece of stone or hardened clay) and a split piece of stick (that is, reed).’ He replied: ‘Make the blood flow (that is, spill it) with whatever you wish, and mention Allah’s name over it.’
Narrated by Ahmad, Abū Dāwūd, al-Nasā’ī, Ibn Mājah, al-Hākim, and Ibn Hibbān.”)

Weak. It was narrated by Abū Dāwūd (2824), al-Nasā’ī (2/197), Ibn Mājah (3177)—whose wording this is—al-Hākim (4/240), al-Bayhaqī likewise (9/281), and Ahmad (4/256), through Murrī ibn Qatarī, who said: “I heard ‘Adī ibn Hātim.” Al-Hākim said: “Authentic according to Muslim’s criteria,” and al-Dhahabī concurred. This is an error, for this Murrī is unknown, as al-Dhahabī himself stated, and Muslim narrated nothing from him.
Al-Bayhaqī also narrated it through Abū Bakr ibn ‘Abd Allāh, from Abū al-Zinād, from ‘Abd Allāh ibn ‘Āmir ibn Rabī‘ah al-‘Adawī, from ‘Adī, with the same wording. However, this Abū Bakr—namely, Ibn Abī Sabrah—was accused of fabricating hadith.

35 — (“In the two Sahīhs, Rāfi‘ ibn Khadīj said: We were with the Prophet—peace and blessings be upon him—on a journey when one of the people’s camels bolted. They had no horses with them, so a man shot an arrow at it and brought it to a halt. The Messenger of Allah—peace and blessings be upon him—said: ‘These beasts are liable to turn wild, just as wild animals do. If any of them behaves like this, do the same to it.’” p. 56)
Authentic. It was narrated by the two Shaykhs, the compilers of the Sunan collections, and others, and is documented in al-Irwā’ (2522, 2527).
