Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا الأَوْزَاعِيُّ، حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ ‏ "‏ مَنِ اقْتَنَى كَلْبًا فَإِنَّهُ يَنْقُصُ مِنْ عَمَلِهِ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ قِيرَاطٌ إِلاَّ كَلْبَ حَرْثٍ أَوْ مَاشِيَةٍ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Hishām ibn ʿAmmār narrated to us: al-Walīd ibn Muslim narrated to us: al-Awzāʿī narrated to us: Yaḥyā ibn Abī Kathīr told me, from Abū Salamah, from Abū Hurayrah, who said: The Messenger of God (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever keeps a dog loses one qīrāṭ from his deeds every day, except for a dog used for crops or livestock.
