حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ حَدَّثَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ لَا أَعْلَمُهُ إِلَّا رَفَعَ الْحَدِيثَ قَالَ كَانَ يَأْمُرُ بِقَتْلِ الْحَيَّاتِ وَيَقُولُ مَنْ تَرَكَهُنَّ خَشْيَةَ أَوْ مَخَافَةَ تَأْثِيرٍ فَلَيْسَ مِنَّا قَالَ وَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ إِنَّ الْجَانَّ مَسِيخُ الْجِنِّ كَمَا مُسِخَتْ الْقِرَدَةُ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ
مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 3254
It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbas said - he [the narrator] said: I only think that he attributed it to the Prophet (PBUH): He used to enjoin killing snakes and said: "Whoever leaves them alone out of fear or for fear of harm, is not one of us." And Tbn 'Abbas said: Small snakes are transformed jinn as monkeys are transformed people from among the Children of Israel.
