Is the prey caught by a dog washed by analogy to washing the vessel in which a dog has licked?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : In any case, this is a matter of disagreement among the scholars. Some said that it is washed seven times, one of which is with soil or what serves as its substitute. Other scholars said, no, it is not obligatory to wash it, because this is something that affects everyone and it is difficult to guard against it, and because Allah permitted the killing of game absolutely, without washing, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saw his Companions eating it without washing. This is the choice of Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah (may Allah have mercy on him), and it is the correct view that it is not obligatory.
The questioner : ... the evidence
The Shaykh : All the general texts, there is nothing in them. All the hadiths are general, there is no mention of washing in them, here.
The student: He mentioned it in the commentary, the issue of not washing, and he said that because the dog runs, its saliva dries, so what remains in it is not saliva, therefore it is not washed.
The Shaykh : Yes, there is no problem with this, yes.
