English translation

2568. It was reported from Sa'eed bin Abī Hind who said: "Abū Hurairah said: 'The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "There are camels for the devils, and there are houses for the devils."[1] As for camels for the devils, I have seen them. One of you goes out with fattened extra camels at his side, riding none of them, nor giving a ride to a tired brother when he passes by him. As for the houses for devils I have not seen them." Sa'eed would say: "I think they are those enclosures which people cover with Dībāj (brocade)."(Da'if)

Arabic text

2568 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي فُدَيْكٍ، حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَبِي يَحْيَى، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي هِنْدٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلّى الله عليه وسلم: «تَكُونُ إِبِلٌ لِلشَّيَاطِينِ، وَبُيُوتٌ لِلشَّيَاطِينِ، فَأَمَّا إِبِلُ الشَّيَاطِينِ فَقَدْ رَأَيْتُهَا يَخْرُجُ أَحَدُكُمْ بِجُنَيْبَاتٍ مَعَهُ قَدْ أَسْمَنَهَا فَلَا يَعْلُو بَعِيرًا مِنْهَا، وَيَمُرُّ بِأَخِيهِ قَدِ انْقَطَعَ بِهِ فَلَا يَحْمِلُهُ، وَأَمَّا بُيُوتُ الشَّيَاطِينِ فَلَمْ أَرَهَا» كَانَ سَعِيدٌ يَقُولُ: «لَا أُرَاهَا إِلَّا هَذِهِ الْأَقْفَاصُ الَّتِي يَسْتُرُ النَّاسُ بِالدِّيبَاجِ»

    [1] Some of the scholars consider this the end of the Hadīth, and that what follows is the statement of Abū Hurairah, others consider all of it — up to the statement of Sa'eed, to be from the Hadīth.
