حَدَّثَنَا غَسَّانُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ نَا يُوسُفُ بْنُ نَافِعٍ قَالَ نَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ أَبِي الْمَوَالِي عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي رَافِعٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ بَيْنَمَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي صَلَاةٍ إِذْ ضَرَبَ شَيْئًا فِي صَلَاتِهِ فَإِذَا هِيَ عَقْرَبٌ ضَرَبَهَا فَقَتَلَهَا وَأَمَرَ بِقَتْلِ الْعَقْرَبِ وَالْحَيَّةِ وَالْفَأْرَةِ وَالْحِدَأَةِ لِلْمُحْرِمِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي صَلَاةٍ إِذْ ضَرَبَ شَيْئًا فِي صَلَاتِهِ فَإِذَا هِيَ عَقْرَبٌ ضَرَبَهَا فَقَتَلَهَا وَأَمَرَ بِقَتْلِ الْعَقْرَبِ وَالْحَيَّةِ وَالْفَأْرَةِ وَالْحِدَأَةِ لِلْمُحْرِمِ
