English translation

516. Abū Hurairah narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "When the call for prayer is given, the Shaitān turns around and passes wind loudly so that he cannot hear the Adhān. When the call is over, he returns (and remains) until the prayer has been proclaimed (meaning, the Iqāmah), upon which he turns around (once again), until it is over. Then, he returns and whispers to a person and says: 'Remember this, remember that' — matters which otherwise he would not think of, until a person does not even know how many (Rak'ahs) he has prayed." (Saḥīḥ)

516 - حَدَّثَنَا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، عَنِ الْأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " إِذَا نُودِيَ بِالصَّلَاةِ أَدْبَرَ الشَّيْطَانُ وَلَهُ ضُرَاطٌ حَتَّى لَا يَسْمَعَ التَّأْذِينَ، فَإِذَا قُضِيَ النِّدَاءُ أَقْبَلَ حَتَّى إِذَا ثُوِّبَ بِالصَّلَاةِ أَدْبَرَ، حَتَّى إِذَا قُضِيَ التَّثْوِيبُ أَقْبَلَ حَتَّى يَخْطُرَ بَيْنَ الْمَرْءِ وَنَفْسِهِ، وَيَقُولُ: اذْكُرْ كَذَا اذْكُرْ كَذَا لِمَا لَمْ يَكُنْ يَذْكُرُ، حَتَّى يَضِلَّ الرَّجُلُ أَنْ يَدْرِيَ كَمْ صَلَّى "
