Kill the two blacks during prayer: the snake and the scorpion

Kill the two blacks during prayer: the snake and the scorpion

Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Kill the two blacks during prayer: the snake and the scorpion."

[Sahih/Authentic.] [Ibn Maajah]

Explanation

This noble Hadīth points out that killing snakes and scorpions even during prayer is recommendable, because we have been ordered to kill them, and because their killing requires a limited movement that does not invalidate prayer.
