عنِ ابن عُمرَ رضي اللّه عَنْهُمَا قالَ: وَعَدَ رَسُولَ اللّهِ صَلّى اللّهُ عَلَيْهِ وسَلَّم جِبْرِيلُ أنْ يأتِيَهُ، فَرَاثَ عَليْهِ حتَّى اشْتَدَّ عَلى رَسُول اللّه صَلّى اللّهُ عَلَيْهِ وسَلَّم، فَخَرَجَ فَلَقِيهُ جبْرِيلُ فَشَكَا إلَيْهِ. فقَالَ: إنَّا لا نَدْخُلُ بيْتًا فيهِ كَلْبٌ وَلا صُورَةٌ. رواه البخاري.
Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: Jibril promised the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) that he would come to him, but he was slow in coming to him, until it became distressing to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). So he went out, and Jibril met him, and he complained to him. He said: "We do not enter a house in which there is a dog or an image." Reported by al-Bukhari.
