It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded us to kill dogs, and (so we killed the dogs) to the extent that we would even kill the dogs belonging to women coming from the villages. But later, the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade killing dogs and said: Kill the black dog with two white spots on its eyes, for it is a devil.

Narrated by Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mughaffal (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: If dogs were not a community among various communities, I would have ordered them all to be killed completely. Now, you should kill every black one among them.

Narrated by Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The black dog is a devil.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mughaffal (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered the killing of dogs, and then said: What is your concern with dogs? Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) permitted hunting dogs and dogs that guard sheep.
