The Prophet ﷺ said: Were dogs not a species of creature I should command that they all be killed; but kill every pure black one.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَوْلاَ أَنَّ الْكِلاَبَ أُمَّةٌ مِنَ الأُمَمِ لأَمَرْتُ بِقَتْلِهَا فَاقْتُلُوا مِنْهَا الأَسْوَدَ الْبَهِيمَ  

"I was one of those who held up the branches from the tree away from the face of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while he was delivering the Khutbah saying: 'If it were not that dogs were a nation among nations, then I would order that they be killed. So kill every one among them that is all black. There is one inhabiting a home in which they keep a dog but their deeds are decreased by one Qirat every day - except for a hunting dog, or a farm dog, or a sheep dog.'"  

عَنْ وَجْهِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ يَخْطُبُ فَقَالَ لَوْلاَ أَنَّ الْكِلاَبَ أُمَّةٌ مِنَ الأُمَمِ لأَمَرْتُ بِقَتْلِهَا فَاقْتُلُوا مِنْهَا كُلَّ أَسْوَدَ بَهِيمٍ وَمَا مِنْ أَهْلِ بَيْتٍ يَرْتَبِطُونَ كَلْبًا إِلاَّ نَقَصَ مِنْ عَمَلِهِمْ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ قِيرَاطٌ إِلاَّ كَلْبَ صَيْدٍ أَوْ كَلْبَ حَرْثٍ أَوْ كَلْبَ غَنَمٍ  

“Were it not that dogs form one of the communities (or nations – of creatures), I would have commanded that they be killed. But kill those that are all black. There are no people who keep a dog, except for dogs used for herding livestock, hunting or farming, but two Qirat will be deducted from their reward each day.”  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَوْلاَ أَنَّ الْكِلاَبَ أُمَّةٌ مِنَ الأُمَمِ لأَمَرْتُ بِقَتْلِهَا فَاقْتُلُوا مِنْهَا الأَسْوَدَ الْبَهِيمَ وَمَا مِنْ قَوْمٍ اتَّخَذُوا كَلْبًا إِلاَّ كَلْبَ مَاشِيَةٍ أَوْ كَلْبَ صَيْدٍ أَوْ كَلْبَ حَرْثٍ إِلاَّ نَقَصَ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ قِيرَاطَانِ  

"Were it not that dogs form one of the communities (or nations - of creatures), I would have commanded that they be killed. But kill those that are all black. Any people who keep a dog, except for dogs used for farming, hunting or herding livestock, one Qirat will be deducted from their reward each day." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 4280)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَوْلَا أَنَّ الْكِلَابَ أُمَّةٌ مِنَ الْأُمَمِ لَأَمَرْتُ بِقَتْلِهَا فَاقْتُلُوا مِنْهَا الْأَسْوَدَ الْبَهِيمَ وَأَيُّمَا قَوْمٍ اتَّخَذُوا كَلْبًا لَيْسَ بِكَلْبِ حَرْثٍ أَوْ صَيْدٍ أَوْ مَاشِيَةٍ نَقَصُوا مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ قِيرَاطًا قَالَ وَكُنَّا نُؤْمَرُ أَنْ نُصَلِّيَ فِي مَرَابِضِ الْغَنَمِ وَلَا نُصَلِّيَ فِي أَعْطَانِ الْإِبِلِ فَإِنَّهَا خُلِقَتْ مِنَ الشَّيَاطِينِ  

The Prophet ﷺ said: Were dogs not a species of creature I should command that they all be killed; but kill every pure black one. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2845)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَوْلَا أَنَّ الْكِلَابَ أُمَّةٌ مِنَ الْأُمَمِ لَأَمَرْتُ بِقَتْلِهَا فَاقْتُلُوا مِنْهَا كُلَّ أَسْوَدَ بَهِيمٍ  

The Prophet ﷺ said: Were dogs not a species of creature I should command that they all be killed; but kill every pure black one. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2845)   

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ لَوْلَا أَنَّ الْكِلَابَ أُمَّةٌ مِنَ الْأُمَمِ لَأَمَرْتُ بِقَتْلِهَا وَلَكِنْ اقْتُلُوا مِنْهَا كُلَّ أَسْوَدَ بَهِيمٍ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If it weren't for the fact that dogs are a nation among the nations, I would have ordered for them to be killed. So, kill the black dog, as it diminishes the rewards of its owners each day by a qirat. And the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Pray in the dwellings of sheep and do not pray in the blessed places of camels. Verily, camels have been created from the devils."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَوْلَا أَنَّ الْكِلَابَ أُمَّةٌ مِنَ الْأُمَمِ لَأَمَرْتُ بِقَتْلِهَا فَاقْتُلُوا الْأَسْوَدَ الْبَهِيمَوَأَيُّمَا قَوْمٍ اتَّخَذُوا كَلْبًا لَيْسَ بِكَلْبِ صَيْدٍ أَوْ زَرْعٍ أَوْ مَاشِيَةٍ نَقَصَ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ قِيرَاطٌ وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ صَلُّوا فِي مَرَابِضِ الْغَنَمِ وَلَا تُصَلُّوا فِي مَبَارِكِ الْإِبِلِ فَإِنَّهَا خُلِقَتْ مِنَ الشَّيَاطِينِ

"لَوْلا أَنَّ الْكِلابَ أُمَّةٌ مِنَ الأُمَم لأَمَرْتُ بِقَتْلِهَا، فَاقْتُلُوا مِنْهَا كُلَّ أَسْوَدَ بَهِيمٍ، وَمَا مِنْ أَهْلِ بَيتٍ يَرْبِطُونَ كَلْبًا إلا نَقَصَ مِن عَمَلِهِم كُلَّ يَوْمٍ قِيرَاطٌ، إِلَّا كَلْبَ صَيدٍ أَوْ كَلْبَ حَرْبٍ أَوْ كَلْبَ غَنمٍ".
