2886. It was narrated that 'Abdullâh said: "We were with the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ in Al-Khaif, which is in Mina, when the following was revealed: 'By the winds sent forth one after another.'[1] A snake came out, and the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'Kill it.' So they rushed to kill it, but it went back into its hole." (Sahîh)
2883 - أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ آدَمَ، عَنْ حَفْصِ بْنِ غِيَاثٍ، عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ الْأَسْوَدِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِالْخَيْفِ مِنْ مِنًى، حَتَّى نَزَلَتْ {وَالْمُرْسَلَاتِ عُرْفًا} [المرسلات: 1] فَخَرَجَتْ حَيَّةٌ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «اقْتُلُوهَا، فَابْتَدَرْنَاهَا، فَدَخَلَتْ فِي جُحْرِهَا»

Al-Khaif means the foot of a mountain. Masjid Al-Khaif is so called because it is situated at the foot of a mountain; and it is included in the Sacred Precinct. Therefore, a serpent can be killed inside of the Sacred Precinct.
