Killing Snakes In The Haram
Sunan an-Nasai
أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا النَّضْرُ بْنُ شُمَيْلٍ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، سَمِعْتُ سَعِيدَ بْنَ الْمُسَيَّبِ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " خَمْسُ فَوَاسِقَ يُقْتَلْنَ فِي الْحِلِّ وَالْحَرَمِ الْحَيَّةُ وَالْكَلْبُ الْعَقُورُ وَالْغُرَابُ الأَبْقَعُ وَالْحِدَأَةُ وَالْفَأْرَةُ " .
It was narrated from Aishah that the Messenger of Allah said: "There are five kinds of vermin which may be killed out and inside the Haram: Snakes, vicious dogs, speckled Crows, kites, and mice."
