307 - Chapter on the dislike of hanging bells on camels and other animals and the dislike of taking dogs and bells during travel

1690/1 - Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Angels do not accompany a group of travelers who have with them a dog or a bell.” [Narrated by Muslim]

1691/2 - He also reported that the Prophet (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) said: “The bell is the musical instrument of the devil.” [Narrated by Muslim]

Guidance from the Hadīths:

1) Deterrence from hanging bells, particularly on animals, because it is prohibited.

2) The bell is a musical instrument that the devil loves and the honorable angels are averse to.

3) A wise and fortunate person would diligently do the acts pleasing to Allah Almighty and shun everything loved by Satan.
