5112. It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbās said: "A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: 'O Messenger of Allāh, one of us finds in his heart – hinting at something – and he would rather be turned to charcoal than speak of it.' He said: 'Allāhu Akbaru, Allāhu Akbaru Allāhu Akbar, praise be to Allāh, Who has reduced the guile of the Shaitān to mere whispering.'"(Saḥīḥ)

5112 - حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَابْنُ قُدَامَةَ بْنِ أَعْيَنَ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ ذَرٍّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ شَدَّادٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ: جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، إِنَّ أَحَدَنَا يَجِدُ فِي نَفْسِهِ، يُعَرِّضُ بِالشَّيْءِ، لَأَنْ يَكُونَ حُمَمَةً أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ أَنْ يَتَكَلَّمَ بِهِ، فَقَالَ: « اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ، اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ، اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ، الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي رَدَّ كَيْدَهُ إِلَى الْوَسْوَسَةِ» قَالَ ابْنُ قُدَامَةَ: «رَدَّ أَمْرَهُ» مَكَانَ «رَدَّ كَيْدَهُ»
