‘The one
in
Ihram may kill the snake, the scorpion, the aggressive predator,
the
vicious dog and the harmful mouse.” It was said to him: “Why is
it
said that they are harmful?” He said:* “Because the Messenger
of Allah
(ﷺ) woke up because of one, and it had taken the wick (of
the lamp)
to burn down the house.”
