أَخْبَرَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ خَالِدٍ الرَّقِّيُّ الْقَطَّانُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ، قَالَ ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبَانُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، أَنَّ عُرْوَةَ، أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏

"‏ خَمْسٌ مِنَ الدَّوَابِّ كُلُّهُنَّ فَاسِقٌ يُقْتَلْنَ فِي الْحِلِّ وَالْحَرَمِ الْكَلْبُ الْعَقُورُ وَالْغُرَابُ وَالْحِدَأَةُ وَالْعَقْرَبُ وَالْفَأْرَةُ ‏"
