Malik related to me that he heard that Umar ibn al-Khattab wanted
to go to Iraq, and Kabal-Ahbar said to him, "Do not go there, amir al-
muminin. There is nine-tenths of sorcery there and it is the place of
the rebellious jinn and the disease which the doctors are unable to
cure."

A'isha, that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, 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.
