Nafi' reported on the authority of his father that as 'Abdullah b. 'Umar saw one day (standing) near the ruin (of his house) the slough of a snake and said (to the people around him): Pursue this snake and kill it. Abu Lubaba Ansari said: I heard Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ). He forbade the killing of snakes found in the houses except the short-tailed snakes and those having streaks upon them, for both of them obliterate eyesight and affect that which is in the wombs of (pregnant) women.
وحَدَّثَنِي إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَهْضَمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ وَهُوَ عِنْدَنَا ابْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ نَافِعٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: كَانَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ يَوْمًا عِنْدَ هَدْمٍ لَهُ، فَرَأَى وَبِيصَ جَانٍّ فَقَالَ: اتَّبِعُوا هَذَا الْجَانَّ فَاقْتُلُوهُ، قَالَ أَبُو لُبَابَةَ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ: إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ «نَهَى عَنْ قَتْلِ الْجِنَّانِ الَّتِي تَكُونُ فِي الْبُيُوتِ، إِلَّا الْأَبْتَرَ وَذَا الطُّفْيَتَيْنِ، فَإِنَّهُمَا اللَّذَانِ يَخْطِفَانِ الْبَصَرَ، وَيَتَتَبَّعَانِ مَا فِي بُطُونِ النِّسَاءِ»
  عمر بن نافع نے اپنے والد سے روایت کی ، کہا : ایک دن حضرت عبد اللہ بن عمر رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ اپنے گھر کے گرے ہو ئے حصے کے قریب مو جو د تھے کہ انھوں نے اچانک سانپ کی ایک کینچلی دیکھی ، حضرت ابن عمر رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ نے فر ما یا : اس سانپ کو تلا ش کر کے قتل کردو ۔ حضرت ابو لبابہ انصاری رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ نے کہا : میں نے رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم سے سنا ، آپ نے ان سانپوں کو ، جو گھروں میں رہتے ہیں قتل کرنےسے منع فر ما یا ، سوا ئے دم کٹے اور دو سفید دھاریوں والے سانپوں کے کیونکہ یہی دوسانپ ہیں جو نظر کو زائل کر دیتے ہیں اور عورتوں کے حمل کو نقصان پہنچاتے ۔

sahih-muslim-5839

Abu as-Sa'ib, the freed slaved of Hisham b. Zuhra, said that he visited Abu Sa'id Khudri in his house, (and he further) said: I found him saying his prayer, so I sat down waiting for him to finish his prayer when I heard a stir in the bundles (of wood) lying in a comer of the house. I looked towards it and found a snake. I jumped up in order to kill it, but he (Abu Sa'id Khudri) made a gesture that I should sit down. So I sat down and as he finished (the prayer) he pointed to a room in the house and said: Do you see this room? I said: Yes. He said: There was a young man amongst us who had been newly wedded. We went with Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) (to participate in the Battle) of Trench when a young man in the midday used to seek permission from Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) to return to his family. One day he sought permission from him and Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) (after granting him the permission) said to him: Carry your weapons with you for I fear the tribe of Quraiza (may harm you). The man carried the weapons and then came back and found his wife standing between the two doors. He bent towards her smitten by jealousy and made a dash towards her with a spear in order to stab her. She said: Keep your spear away and enter the house until you see that which has made me come out. He entered and found a big snake coiled on the bedding. He darted with the spear and pierced it and then went out having fixed it in the house, but the snake quivered and attacked him and no one knew which of them died first, the snake or the young man. We came to Allah's Apostle ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) and made a mention to him and said: Supplicate to Allah that that (man) may be brought back to life. Thereupon he said: Ask forgiveness for your companion and then said: There are in Medina jinns who have accepted Islam, so when you see any one of them, pronounce a warning to it for three days, and if they appear before you after that, then kill it for that is a devil.
