[Machine] No one kills the jinn except the one with two twisted forelocks and the one with an amputated leg, for they blur the eyesight and cause miscarriage for pregnant women.  

الكبرى للنسائي:٣٨٠٠أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ الصَّاغَانِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَرْعَرَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ أَنَّ امْرَأَةً دَخَلَتْ عَلَى عَائِشَةَ وَبِيَدِهَا عُكَّازٌ فَقَالَتْ مَا هَذَا؟ فَقَالَتْ لِهَذِهِ الْوَزَغُ لِأَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللهِ ﷺ حَدَّثَنَا أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ شَيْءٌ إِلَّا يُطْفِئُ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ إِلَّا هَذِهِ الدَّابَّةُ «§فَأَمَرَنَا بِقَتْلِهَا وَنَهَى

عَنْ قَتْلِ الْجِنَّانِ إِلَّا ذَا الطُّفْيَتَيْنِ وَالْأَبْتَرَ فَإِنَّهُمَا يَطْمِسَانِ الْبَصَرَ وَيُسْقِطَانِ مَا فِي بُطُونِ النِّسَاءِ»

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prohibited killing the jinnan(small snakes) that are in the house, except the one which have two streaks and the one with small tail, for they obliterate the eyesight and cause miscarriage.

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ اقْتُلُوا الْحَيَّاتِ وَاقْتُلُوا ذَا الطُّفْيَتَيْنِ وَالأَبْتَرَ فَإِنَّهُمَا يَلْتَمِسَانِ الْبَصَرَ وَيُسْقِطَانِ الْحَبَلَ

Malik related to me from Nafi from Sa'iba, the female mawla of A'isha, that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade killing the snakes which were in the houses except those with two white stripes on their back and the short ones. They made one go blind and caused miscarriages in women.
