Narrated Ibn Abbas: Maimunah, wife of the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم reported him as saying: Gabriel صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم promised to visit me last night, but he did not visit me. Then it occurred to him that there was a pup under his bed. So he ordered and it was turned out. He then got water in his hand and sprinkled it on its place. When Gabriel صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم met him, he said: We do not enter a house which contains a dog or a picture. When the morning came, the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ordered to kill dogs. He ordered to kill the dog which guarded a small orchard, and left the dog which guarded the big orchard.

So order the head of the image which is in the house to be cut off so that it resembles the form of a tree; order the curtain to be cut up and made into two cushions spread out on which people may tread; and order the dog to be turned out. The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم then did so. The dog belonged to al-Hasan or al-Husayn and was under their couch. So he ordered it to be turned out. Abu Dawud said: Al-Nadd means a thing on which clothes are placed like a couch.
