Muwatta Malik #1088
Slaughtering Animals
Yahya related to me from Malik from Hisham ibn Urwa that his
father said, "The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, was asked, 'Messenger of Allah! Some people from the desert
bring us meat, and we do not know whether the name of Allah has been
mentioned over it or not.' The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, said, 'Mention the name of Allah over it and
eat.' "
Malik said, "That was in the beginning of Islam."
