4117 - وعن ابن عمر - رضي الله عنهما - انه سمع النبي - صلى الله عليه وسلم - يقول:"اقتلوا الحيات  ، واقتلوا ذا الطفيتين والابتر فإنهما يطمسان البصر، ويستسقطان الحبل"قال عبد الله: فبينا انا اطارد حية اقتلها، ناداني ابو لبابة: لا تقتلها. فقلت: إن رسول الله - صلى الله عليه وسلم - امر بقتل الحيات. فقال: إنه نهى بعد ذلك عن ذوات البيوت، وهن العوامر. متفق عليه.
Ibn ‘Umar told of hearing the Prophet say, "Kill snakes, kill those which have two streaks and those with small tails, for they obliterate the eyesight and cause miscarriage." ‘Abdallah [i.e. Ibn Umar] said that while he was chasing a snake and trying to kill it Abu Lubaba called to him not to kill it, but he replied that God's messenger had given command that snakes should be killed. He then said that he had later prohibited killing house-snakes, for they are resident jinn. (Bukhari and Muslim.)
