وَحَدَّثَنَاهُ إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، أَخْبَرَنَا هِشَامٌ، بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ، وَقَالَ: الْأَبْتَرُ وَذُو الطُّفْيَتَيْنِ
  ابو معاویہ نے کہا : ہمیں ہشام نے اس سند کے ساتھ حدیث سنا ئی اور کہا : بے دم کا سانپ اور پشت پر دو سفیدلکیروں والا سانپ ( ماردیا جا ئے ۔ )

sahih-muslim-5825

Salim, on the authority of his father. reported Allah's Apostle ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) as saying: Kill the snakes having stripes over them and short-tailed snakes, for these two types cause miscarriage (of a pregnant woman) and they affect the eyesight adversely. So Ibn 'Umar used to kill every snake that he found. Abu Lubaba b. 'Abd al-Mundhir and Zaid b. Khattab saw him pursuing a snake, whereupon he said: They were forbidden (to kill) those snakes who live in houses.

sahih-muslim-5826

Ibn 'Umar reported: I heard Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) commanding the killing of dogs and the killing of the striped and the short-tailed snakes, for both of them affect the eyesight adversely and cause miscarriage. Zuhri said: We thought of their poison (the pernicious effects of these two). Allah, however, knows best. 'Abdullah b. 'Umar said: I did not spare any snake. I rather killed everyone that I saw. One day as I was pursuing a snake from amongst the snakes of the house, Zaid b. Khattab or Abu Lubaba happened to pass by me and found me pursuing it. He said: 'Abdullah, wait. I said: Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) commanded (us) to kill them, whereupon he said that Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) forbade the killing of the snakes of the houses.
