Take precautionary measures against potential dangers in order to protect oneself and one's family from harm . Respect Allah's creation by not killing animals unnecessarily or without a valid reason .

The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ instructed his followers to kill snakes that have two streaks and small tails as they can cause blindness and miscarriages. This is a precautionary measure to protect people from the harm of these dangerous creatures. It is important to note that the Prophet ﷺ did not prohibit house-snakes, but only those which are dangerous. This hadith teaches us the importance of taking precautions against potential dangers in order to protect ourselves and our families from harm. We should also be mindful of Allah's creation by not killing animals unnecessarily or without a valid reason.
