Narrated Abu Saeed al-Khudri: Muhammad ibn Abu Yahya said that his father told that he and his companion went to Abu Saeed al-Khudri to pay a sick visit to him. He said: Then we came out from him and met a companion of ours who wanted to go to him. We went ahead and sat in the mosque. He then came back and told us that he heard Abu Saeed al-Khudri say: The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم said: Some snakes are jinn; so when anyone sees one of them in his house, he should give it a warning three times. If it return (after that), he should kill it, for it is a devil.

حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ،‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي يَحْيَى،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي أَنَّهُ انْطَلَقَ هُوَ وَصَاحِبٌ لَهُ إِلَى أَبِي سَعِيدٍ يَعُودَانِهِ،‏‏‏‏ فَخَرَجْنَا مِنْ عِنْدِهِ،‏‏‏‏ فَلَقِيَنَا صَاحِبٌ لَنَا وَهُوَ يُرِيدُ أَنْ يَدْخُلَ عَلَيْهِ،‏‏‏‏ فَأَقْبَلْنَا نَحْنُ،‏‏‏‏ فَجَلَسْنَا فِي الْمَسْجِدِ،‏‏‏‏ فَجَاءَ،‏‏‏‏ فَأَخْبَرَنَا أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيَّ،‏‏‏‏ يَقُولُ:‏‏‏‏ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّ الْهَوَامَّ مِنَ الْجِنِّ،‏‏‏‏ فَمَنْ رَأَى فِي بَيْتِهِ شَيْئًا،‏‏‏‏ فَلْيُحَرِّجْ عَلَيْهِ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ،‏‏‏‏ فَإِنْ عَادَ فَلْيَقْتُلْهُ،‏‏‏‏ فَإِنَّهُ شَيْطَانٌ .

محمد بن ابو یحییٰ کہتے ہیں کہ مجھ سے میرے والد نے بیان کیا کہ وہ اور ان کے ایک ساتھی دونوں ابو سعید خدری رضی اللہ عنہ کی عیادت کے لیے گئے پھر وہاں سے واپس ہوئے تو اپنے ایک اور ساتھی سے ملے، وہ بھی ان کے پاس جانا چاہتے تھے ( وہ ان کے پاس چلے گئے ) اور ہم آ کر مسجد میں بیٹھ گئے پھر وہ ہمارے پاس ( مسجد ) میں آ گئے اور ہمیں بتایا کہ انہوں نے ابو سعید خدری رضی اللہ عنہ کو کہتے ہوئے سنا کہ رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا ہے کہ بعض سانپ جن ہوتے ہیں جو اپنے گھر میں بعض زہریلے کیڑے ( سانپ وغیرہ ) دیکھے تو اسے تین مرتبہ تنبیہ کرے ( کہ دیکھ تو پھر نظر نہ آ، ورنہ تنگی و پریشانی سے دو چار ہو گا، اس تنبیہ کے بعد بھی ) پھر نظر آئے تو اسے قتل کر دے، کیونکہ وہ شیطان ہے ( جیسے شیطان شرارت سے باز نہیں آتا، ایسے ہی یہ بھی سمجھانے کا اثر نہیں لیتا، ایسی صورت میں اسے مار دینے میں کوئی حرج نہیں ہے ) ۔

sunan-abu-dawud-5257

Abu al-Saib said I went to visit Abu Sa’ld al-Khudri, and while I was sitting I heard a movement under under his couch. When I looked and found a snake there, I got up. Abu Sa’ld said: what is with you? I said: Here is a snake. He said: what do you want ? I said: I shall kill it. He then pointed to a room in his house in front of his room and said: My cousin (son of my uncle) was in this room. He asked his permission to go to his wife on the occasion of the battle of Troops (Ahzab), as he was recently married. The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم gave him permission and ordered him to take his weapon with him. He came to his house and found his wife standing at the door of the house. When he pointed to her with the lance, she said; do not make haste till you see what has brought me out. He entered the house and found an ugly snake there. He pierced in the lance while it was quivering. He said: I do not know which of them died first, the man or the snake. His people then came to the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم and said: supplicate Allah to restore our companion to life for us. He said: Ask forgiveness for your Companion. Then he said: In Madina a group of Jinn have embraced Islam, so when you see one of them, pronounce a waring to it three times and if it appears to you after that, kill it after three days.
