اُردوEn
وَقَالَ الطَّيَالِسِيُّ : حَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ : إِنَّ رَجُلًا سَأَلَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ قَتْلِ الْحَيَّاتِ فَقَالَ : خُلِقَ الْإِنْسَانُ وَالْحَيَّةُ سَوَاءً إِنْ رَآهَا أَفْزَعَتْهُ ، وَإِنْ لَدَغَتْهُ أَوْجَعَتْهُ ، فَاقْتُلُوهَا حَيْثُ وَجَدْتُمُوهَا .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that he said: A man asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about killing snakes, and he said: "Man and the snake were created alike (in natural hostility to one another): if a man sees it, it frightens him, and if the snake bites a man, it causes him severe pain. So kill them wherever you find them."
