Tahdhīb al-Aḥkām|Volume 1|Book 1|Chapter 12
وَ بِهَذَا اَلْإِسْنَادِ عَنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ حَمَّادٍ عَنْ حَرِيزٍ عَنِ اَلْفَضْلِ أَبِي اَلْعَبَّاسِ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ:« إِذَا أَصَابَ ثَوْبَكَ مِنَ اَلْكَلْبِ رُطُوبَةٌ فَاغْسِلْهُ وَ إِنْ مَسَّهُ جَافّاً فَاصْبُبْ عَلَيْهِ اَلْمَاءَ» قُلْتُ لِمَ صَارَ بِهَذِهِ اَلْمَنْزِلَةِ قَالَ« لِأَنَّ اَلنَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ أَمَرَ بِقَتْلِهَا».
With this chain of transmission, from Al-Husayn ibn Sa'id, from Hammad, from Hariz, from Al-Fadl Abu Al-Abbas. He said:
Abu Abdullah عليه السلام said: "If the dog's wetness touches your clothing, then wash it. And if it touches it while dry, then pour water over it." I asked, "Why is it treated this way?" Imam عليه السلام said: "Because the Prophet صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم ordered them to be killed."
