Narrater: (As-Sa'ib bin Yazid) Hadidth No: (516)

Abu Sufyan bin Abu Zuhair, a man from Azd Shanu'a and one of the companions of the Prophet said, ''I heard Allah's Apostle saying, If one keeps a dog which is meant for guarding neither a farm nor cattle, one Qirat of the reward of his good deeds is deducted daily.'' I said, ''Did you hear this from Allah's Apostle?'' He said, ''Yes, by the Lord of this Mosque.''
