Killing of Snakes for Safety

SUMMARY: Killing of a particular type of snake is encouraged as it can cause harm to people.

Narrated 'Aisha: The Prophet said, "Kill the snake with two white lines on its back, for it blinds the on-looker and causes abortion".
حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، عَنْ هِشَامٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ـ رضى الله عنها ـ قَالَتْ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ‏ "‏ اقْتُلُوا ذَا الطُّفْيَتَيْنِ، فَإِنَّهُ يَلْتَمِسُ الْبَصَرَ، وَيُصِيبُ الْحَبَلَ ‏"‏‏.‏ تَابَعَهُ حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ أَبَا أُسَامَةَ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith was narrated by Aisha, one of the wives of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. In this hadith, Prophet Muhammad ﷺ encourages us to kill a particular type of snake which has two white lines on its back. This is because this type of snake can cause harm to people by blinding them and causing abortions in pregnant women. Therefore, killing such snakes is important for safety and protection from any potential danger they may bring.
