"بَعَثَنِى رَسُولُ الله ﷺ أَقْتُلُ الْكِلَابَ، فَأخْرُجُ أَقْتُلُ كُلَّ مَا لَقِيتُ حَتَّى جِئْتُ الْعُصَيَّةَ (*) فَإِذَا كَلْبٌ حَوْلَ بَيْتٍ فَأَرْعَتُهُ لأقْتُلَهُ، فَنَادَتْنِى امْرَأَةٌ مِنَ الْبَيْتِ، فَقَالَتْ: ما تُرِيدُ؟ فَقُلْتُ: بَعَثَنِى رَسُولُ الله ﷺ أَقْتُلُ الْكِلَابَ، فَقَالَتْ: ارْجِعْ إِلَى رَسُولِ الله ﷺ فَأَخْبِرْهُ أنِّى امْرَأَةٌ قَدْ ذَهَبَ بَصَرِى، وَأَنَّهُ يُؤْذِنُنِى بِالآتِى، وَيَطْرُدُ عَنِّى السَّبُعَ، فَرَجَعْتُ إِلَى رَسُولِ الله ﷺ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ، فَقَالَ: ارْجِعْ فَاقْتُلْهُ، فَرَجَعْتُ فَقتَلْتُهُ".

So I went out and killed every dog that I encountered, until I came to the outskirts. There I found a dog near a house, so I prepared to kill it. Then a woman from the house called out to me and said: "What do you want?" I said: "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent me to kill the dogs." She said: "Go back to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and inform him that I am a woman who has lost her sight. He permits me to have someone guide me and keeps the wolves away from me." So I went back to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and informed him. He said: "Go back and kill it." So I went back and killed it.
