Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ عَنْ يُونُسَ عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ هِلَالٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ صَامِتٍ عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا قَامَ أَحَدُكُمْ يُصَلِّي فَإِنَّهُ يَسْتُرُهُ إِذَا كَانَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ مِثْلُ آخِرَةِ الرَّحْلِ فَإِذَا لَمْ يَكُنْ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ مِثْلُ آخِرَةِ الرَّحْلِ فَإِنَّهُ يَقْطَعُ صَلَاتَهُ الْحِمَارُ وَالْمَرْأَةُ وَالْكَلْبُ الْأَسْوَدُ قُلْتُ يَا أَبَا ذَرٍّ مَا بَالُ الْكَلْبِ الْأَسْوَدِ مِنْ الْكَلْبِ الْأَحْمَرِ مِنْ الْكَلْبِ الْأَصْفَرِ قَالَ يَا ابْنَ أَخِي سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَمَا سَأَلْتَنِي فَقَالَ الْكَلْبُ الْأَسْوَدُ شَيْطَانٌ.
English Translation
Isma'il narrated to us, from Yunus, from Humayd ibn Hilal, from Abdullah ibn as-Samit, from Abu Dharr, who said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "When one of you stands to pray, he is shielded if there is in front of him something like the back of a saddle; but if there is not in front of him something like the back of a saddle, then his prayer is interrupted by a donkey, a woman, or a black dog." I said: "O Abu Dharr, what is the difference between the black dog and the red dog and the yellow dog?" He said: "Nephew, I asked the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, just as you have asked me, and he said: 'The black dog is a devil.'"
