حَدِيثُ أَبِي لُبَابَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ١٥٧٤٨ - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، حَدَّثَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ سَالِمٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: " اقْتُلُوا الْحَيَّاتِ، وَاقْتُلُوا ذَا الطُّفْيَتَيْنِ، وَالْأَبْتَرَ، فَإِنَّهُمَا يُسْقِطَانِ الْحَبَلَ، وَيَطْمِسَانِ الْبَصَرَ " قَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ: فَرَآنِي أَبُو لُبَابَةَ، أَوْ زَيْدُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ، وَأَنَا أُطَارِدُ حَيَّةً لِأَقْتُلَهَا فَنَهَانِي، فَقُلْتُ: إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَدْ أَمَرَ بِقَتْلِهِنَّ، فَقَالَ إِنَّهُ قَدْ " نَهَى بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ عَنْ قَتْلِ ذَوَاتِ الْبُيُوتِ " قَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ: وَهِيَ الْعَوَامِرُ (١)، ،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Ibn Umar that I heard the Prophet (ﷺ) say: "Kill every snake, especially the striped snake and the snake with a cut tail, because both of these cause miscarriage and loss of eyesight." Therefore, whenever I saw a snake, I would kill it. One day, Abu Lubabah or Yazid bin Khattab saw me chasing a snake to kill it, and I told them that the Prophet (ﷺ) had ordered their killing. So they said: "Afterwards, the Prophet (ﷺ) forbade killing the snakes that live in houses."
