What is the ruling on one who finds his game after a day?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Peace be upon you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says: If a man shoots at game and searches for it but does not find it, and then, after a day, he finds it, is it permissible to eat it, or is it considered carrion?

Answer:
As you heard in the hadith
If it is hidden from him and he finds it afterwards, and he finds in it nothing but the mark of his arrow, there is no harm in eating it.اذا غاب عنه وجده بعد ذلك فان لم يجد فيه الا اثر سهمه فلا باس ان ياكله
Therefore, he said: If you wish, eat it; if you wish, do not. However, if it has stank and rotted, he should not eat it. Yes.
