952. It was narrated from 'Abdullâh bin Sâmit from Abu Dharr, that the Prophet ﷺ said: "The prayer is severed by a woman, a donkey, and a black dog, if there is not something like the handle of a saddle in front of a man." I ('Abdullâh) said: "What is wrong with a black dog and not a red one?" He (Abu Dharr) said: 'I asked the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ the same question, and he said: "The black dog is a Shaitân (satan)." (Sahih)
952 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنُ هِلَالٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنُ الصَّامِتِ، عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «يَقْطَعُ الصَّلَاةَ إِذَا لَمْ يَكُنْ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ الرَّجُلِ مِثْلُ مُؤَخِّرَةِ الرَّحْلِ، الْمَرْأَةُ، وَالْحِمَارُ، وَالْكَلْبُ، الْأَسْوَدُ» قَالَ: قُلْتُ: مَا بَالُ الْأَسْوَدُ مِنَ الْأَحْمَرِ؟ فَقَالَ: سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَمَا سَأَلْتَنِي، فَقَالَ: «الْكَلْبُ الْأَسْوَدِ شَيْطَانٌ»

There is a divergence of opinion among the scholars as to whether or not the prayer is severed by passing of the above mentioned. A section of the scholars believes that they do sever the prayer as is evident from the words of Hadith taken at face value. The second section interprets the Arabic word yaqta'u to mean 'diminish the quality' because of distraction in concentration and devotion. There is also a third group that says that the Hadith stands abrogated by another Hadith which says: 'Lâ yaqta'u-salâta shai'un' nothing severs the prayer. This last opinion is certainly preferable.
