3288. Narrated 'Āishah رضي الله عنها: The Prophet ﷺ said, "While the angels talk amidst the clouds about things that are going to happen on earth, the devils hear a word of what they say and pour it in the ears of a foreteller as one pours something in a bottle, and they add one hundred lies to that (one word)."

Arabic text

3288 - قَالَ: وَقَالَ اللَّيْثُ: حَدَّثَنِي خَالِدُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي هِلاَلٍ، أَنَّ أَبَا الأَسْوَدِ أَخْبَرَهُ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: " المَلاَئِكَةُ تَتَحَدَّثُ فِي العَنَانِ - وَالعَنَانُ: الغَمَامُ -، بِالأَمْرِ يَكُونُ فِي الأَرْضِ، فَتَسْمَعُ الشَّيَاطِينُ الكَلِمَةَ، فَتَقُرُّهَا فِي أُذُنِ الكَاهِنِ كَمَا تُقَرُّ القَارُورَةُ، فَيَزِيدُونَ مَعَهَا مِائَةَ كَذِبَةٍ "
