عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ خُصَيْفَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنِ السَّائِبِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّهُ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ سُفْيَانَ بْنَ أَبِي زُهَيْرٍ وَهُوَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ شَنُوءَةَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُحَدِّثُ نَاسًا مَعَهُ عِنْدَ بَابِ الْمَسْجِدِ يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ مَنِ اقْتَنَى كَلْبًا لَا يُغْنِي عَنْهُ زَرْعًا وَلَا ضَرْعًا نَقَصَ مِنْ عَمَلِهِ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ قِيرَاطٌ قَالَ أَنْتَ سَمِعْتَ هَذَا مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ إِي وَرَبِّ هَذَا الْمَسْجِدِ
Narrated by Sayyiduna Sufyan bin Abi Zuhair رضي الله عنه, a companion belonging to the Shanou’ah tribe, that he related this hadith at the door of the mosque: The Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم said: Whoever keeps a dog that does not serve to guard crops or livestock, then a qirat will be deducted from his deeds every day. Someone asked: Did you yourself hear this hadith from the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم? He replied: Yes, by the Lord of this mosque.
