"اقْتلُوا الحيَّاتِ، فَمَنْ وَجَدَ ذَا الطُّفيَتَيْنِ والأبتر فَلَمْ يَقْتُلْهُمَا فَلَيْسَ مِنَّا، فَإِنَّهما اللذانِ يخطفَانِ البصَرَ ويُسْقِطَانِ مَا فِى بُطُونِ النِّسَاءِ".

Collected by Abū Dāwūd, Tirmidhī, Ibn Mājah, Aḥmad, Mālik, Ibn Ḥibbān, Bazzār, Ṭabarānī, Nasāʾī's Kubrá, SuyūṭīThe 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 نَهَى عَنْ قَتْلِ الْجِنَّانِ الَّتِي تَكُونُ فِي الْبُيُوتِ إِلاَّ أَنْ يَكُونَ ذَا الطُّفْيَتَيْنِ وَالأَبْتَرَ فَإِنَّهُمَا يَخْطِفَانِ الْبَصَرَ وَيَطْرَحَانِ مَا فِي بُطُونِ النِّسَاءِ
That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Kill snakes and kill Dhut-Tufyatain and Al-Abtar, because they blind the sight and cause abortions of fetuses."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ اقْتُلُوا الْحَيَّاتِ وَاقْتُلُوا ذَا الطُّفْيَتَيْنِ وَالأَبْتَرَ فَإِنَّهُمَا يَلْتَمِسَانِ الْبَصَرَ وَيُسْقِطَانِ الْحَبَلَ قَالَ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ وَعَائِشَةَ وَأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ وَسَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ

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.
