حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ خَلَفٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ ، عَنْ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ ، قَالَ : أَمَرَ نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِقَتْلِ الْكِلَابِ حَتَّى إِنْ كَانَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ تَقْدَمُ مِنَ الْبَادِيَةِ يَعْنِي بِالْكَلْبِ فَنَقْتُلُهُ ، ثُمَّ نَهَانَا عَنْ قَتْلِهَا ، وَقَالَ : " عَلَيْكُمْ بِالْأَسْوَدِ " .
Narrated Jabir ibn Abdullah: The Prophet of Allah ﷺ ordered to kill dogs, and we were even killing a dog which a woman brought with her from the desert. Afterwards he forbade to kill them, saying: Confine yourselves to the type which is black.
Explanation & Benefits
Shaykh Umar Farooq Saeedi
Benefits and Issues:
The black dog, and especially the one with two spots over its eyes,
has been described as a devil.
Therefore, it has been commanded to be killed.
If, in any settlement, common dogs increase and become a source of harm for people,
then it is also permissible to kill them and reduce their numbers, but to completely eradicate them is not permissible.
