English translation
702. It was reported (with three chains) from Sulaimān bin Al-Mughīrah, who informed them from Humaid bin Hilāl, from 'Abdullāh bin Aṣ-Ṣāmit, from Abū Dharr. Hafṣ (one of the narrators) said: "He said: 'The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said'" — The other two reported it that Sulaimān said: "Abū Dharr said: 'A person's prayer is broken when he does not have (a Sutrah) the size of the rear of a saddle, and a donkey, or a black dog, or a woman (passes in front of him).'" I said: "What is the difference between a black (dog), from a red, or yellow, or white one?" He (Abū Dharr) replied: "O nephew, I asked the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ the same question that you asked me, and he said: 'The black dog is a Shaitān.'" (Ṣaḥīḥ)
