عَائِشَةَ أَنَّهَا ، قَالَتْ : وَاعَدَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَام فِي سَاعَةٍ يَأْتِيهِ فِيهَا ، فَجَاءَتْ تِلْكَ السَّاعَةُ وَلَمْ يَأْتِهِ ، وَفِي يَدِهِ عَصًا ، فَأَلْقَاهَا مِنْ يَدِهِ ، وَقَالَ : " مَا يُخْلِفُ اللَّهُ وَعْدَهُ وَلَا رُسُلُهُ " ثُمَّ الْتَفَتَ فَإِذَا جِرْوُ كَلْبٍ تَحْتَ سَرِيرِهِ ، فَقَالَ يَا عَائِشَةُ : " مَتَى دَخَلَ هَذَا الْكَلْبُ هَاهُنَا ؟ " ، فَقَالَتْ : وَاللَّهِ مَا دَرَيْتُ ، فَأَمَرَ بِهِ فَأُخْرِجَ ، فَجَاءَ جِبْرِيلُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " وَاعَدْتَنِي فَجَلَسْتُ لَكَ فَلَمْ تَأْتِ " ، فَقَالَ : " مَنَعَنِي الْكَلْبُ الَّذِي كَانَ فِي بَيْتِكَ إِنَّا لَا نَدْخُلُ بَيْتًا فِيهِ كَلْبٌ وَلَا صُورَةٌ " .
A'isha reported that Gabriel (ؑ) (peace be upon him) made a promise with Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) to come at a definite hour; that hour came but he did not visit him. And there was in his hand (in the hand of Allah's Apostle) (ﷺ) a staff. He threw it from his hand and said: Never has Allah or His messengers (angels) ever broken their promise. Then he cast a glance (and by chance) found a puppy under his cot and said: 'A'isha, when did this dog enter here? She said: BY Allah, I don't know He then commanded and it was turned out. Then Gabriel (ؑ) came and Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said to him: You promised me and I waited for you. but you did not come, whereupon he said: It was the dog in your house which prevented me (to come), for we (angels) do not enter a house in which there is a dog or a picture.
