حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ أَبِي الْفُرَاتِ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الْأَعْيَنِ الْعَبْدِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي الْأَحْوَصِ الْجُشَمِيِّ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ:
بَيْنَمَا ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ يَخْطُبُ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ إِذْ هُوَ بِحَيَّةٍ تَمْشِي عَلَى الْجِدَارِ، فَقَطَعَ خُطْبَتَهُ وَضَرَبَهَا بِعُصَيَّةٍ حَتَّى قَتَلَهَا، ثُمَّ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: مَنْ قَتَلَ حَيَّةً فَكَأَنَّمَا قَتَلَ رَجُلًا مُشْرِكًا

✧ While Ibn Mas'ud was delivering a sermon one day, he noticed a snake walking on the wall. He cut off his sermon and struck it with a small stick until he killed it, then said: 'I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: Whoever kills a snake, it is as if he killed a polytheist man.'
