[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ used to visit the dwellings of the Ansar people and there was a neighboring house that he did not visit. This saddened them, so they said, "O Messenger of Allah, you visit the house of so-and-so but not our house." The Prophet ﷺ responded, "Indeed, you have a dog in your house." They replied, "But they also have a dog in their house." The Prophet ﷺ then said, "Their dog is a guardian, whereas yours is mere pet."

كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَأْتِي دَارَ قَوْمٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ وَدُونَهُمْ دَارٌ يَعْنِي لَا يَأْتِيهَا فَشَقَّ ذَلِكَ عَلَيْهِمْ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ تَأْتِي دَارَ فُلَانٍ وَلَا تَأْتِي دَارَنَا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِنَّ فِي دَارِكُمْ كَلْبًا قَالَ فَإِنَّ فِي دَارِهِمْ سِنَّوْرًا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ السِّنَّوْرُ سَبْعٌ
