Shhhhhh.....Don't tell the Gecko!!

 Muhammad's reign of terror was not limited to unbelievers. Even little lizards were not immune from his wrath. In fact, the Gecko has his very own chapter in Sahih Muslim.

Chapter 35: THE DESIRABILITY OF KILLING A GECKO (HOUSE LIZARD)

Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: He who KILLED A GECKO with the first stroke for him is such and such a Reward, and he who killed it with a second stroke for him is such and such Reward less than the first one, and he who killed it with the third stroke for him is such and such a Reward less than the second one.

Sahih Muslim Book 026, Number 5564:

This hadith has been reported on the authority of Abu Huraira through another chain of transmitters (and the words are): - He who killed a gecko with the first stroke for him are ordained one hundred virtues, and with the second one less than that and with the third one less than that.

Sahih Muslim Book 026, Number 5565

Amir b. Sa'd reported on the authority of his father that Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) commanded the KILLING OF GECKOS, and he called them little noxious creatures.

Sahih Muslim Book 26, Number 5562
