حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ،‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا مَرْوَانُ بْنُ مُعَاوِيَةَ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ مُوسَى الطَّحَّانِ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ سَابِطٍ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ الْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ،‏‏‏‏ أَنَّهُ قَالَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّا نُرِيدُ أَنْ نَكْنُسَ زَمْزَمَ وَإِنَّ فِيهَا مِنْ هَذِهِ الْجِنَّانِ،‏‏‏‏ يَعْنِي الْحَيَّاتِ الصِّغَارَ،‏‏‏‏ فَأَمَرَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِقَتْلِهِنَّ .

We said to the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم: We wish to sweep out Zamzam, but in it there are some of these Jinnan, meaning small snakes; so the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ordered that they should be killed.
