Al-Mustaurid b. Shaddad said that he saw Allah's Messenger ﷺ rubbing his toes with his little finger when he performed ablution. Tirmidhi, Abu Dawud and Ibn Majah transmitted it.

Abut Tufail said ‘Ali was asked whether Allah's Messenger ﷺ had given them* any instruction for themselves alone and replied that he had given them none which did not apply to all the people except what was in the scabbard of his sword. He then drew out a document containing, “Allah curse him who kills an animal mentioning anyone other than Allah, and Allah curse him who steals a landmark!” A version has, “who changes a landmark; Allah curse him who curses his father; and Allah curse him who protects an innovator!” *i.e. the members of the Prophet's family. Muslim transmitted it.

Rafi‘ b. Khadij told that he said, “ Messenger of Allah , we shall meet the enemy tomorrow and we have no knives; may we kill animals with canes?”* He replied, “When Allah’s name is mentioned you may eat what is killed by anything which causes the blood to flow, except tooth and claw. I shall tell you about it. The tooth is a bone and the claw is the knife of the Abyssinians.” We got some camels and sheep as booty, and when one of the camels ran away a man shot an arrow at it and prevented it from escaping, whereupon Allah's Messenger ﷺ said, “Among camels there are some which bolt like wild animals, so when any of them get the better of you do thus to them.” (Bukhari and Muslim.)

Ka‘b b. Malik told that he had sheep which were pastured at Sal‘, [A hill near Medina.] and when a slavegirl of his saw one of their sheep which was dying she broke a stone and cut its throat with it. He questioned the Prophet (ﷺ) and he ordered him to eat it. Bukhari transmitted it.

Shaddad b. Aus reported Allah's Messenger ﷺ as saying, “Allah who is blessed and exalted has decreed that everything should be done in a good way, so when you kill use a good method, and when you cut an animal’s throat you should use a good method, for each of you should sharpen his knife and give the animal as little pain as possible.” Muslim transmitted it.

Ibn ‘Umar told that he heard Allah's Messenger ﷺ prohibit keeping an animal or anything else* waiting to be killed. *The word translated animal is bahima, which indicates a quadruped. “Anything else” means other creatures which are killed for food. The prohibition is said to refer either to keeping such animals without food and drink, or to imprisoning them and using them as targets. (Bukhari and Muslim.)

He told that the Prophet (ﷺ) cursed those who used a living creature as a target. (Bukhari and Muslim.)

Ibn ‘Abbas reported the Prophet (ﷺ) as saying, "Do not take any living creature as a target." Muslim transmitted it.

Jabir told that Allah's Messenger ﷺ forbade striking the face and branding on the face. Muslim transmitted it.

He reported the Prophet (ﷺ) as saying when an ass which had been branded on its face passed him, “Allah curse the one who branded it!” Muslim transmitted it.

Anas told that one morning he took ‘Abdallah b. Abu Talha to Allah's Messenger ﷺ for him to chew something and rub his palate with it,* and found him with a branding-iron in his hand branding the camels of the sadaqa. *This was a custom for the purpose of acquiring a blessing for children. (Bukhari and Muslim.)
