English translation

[5246] 96 - (2012) It was narrated from Jâbir that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: "Cover vessels, tie up waterskins, close doors and extinguish lamps, for the Shaitân (Satan) does not undo waterskins, nor open doors, nor uncover vessels. If one of you cannot find anything but a stick to place over his vessels, or to mention the Name of Allâh, let him do so, for the mouse may set fire to the people's house." Qutaibah did not mention in his Hadîth "Close doors."

Arabic text

96 - (2012) حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا لَيْثٌ، ح وحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رُمْحٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: «غَطُّوا الْإِنَاءَ، وَأَوْكُوا السِّقَاءَ، وَأَغْلِقُوا الْبَابَ، وَأَطْفِئُوا السِّرَاجَ، فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ لَا يَحُلُّ سِقَاءً، وَلَا يَفْتَحُ بَابًا، وَلَا يَكْشِفُ إِنَاءً، فَإِنْ لَمْ يَجِدْ أَحَدُكُمْ إِلَّا أَنْ يَعْرُضَ عَلَى إِنَائِهِ عُودًا، وَيَذْكُرَ اسْمَ اللهِ، فَلْيَفْعَلْ، فَإِنَّ الْفُوَيْسِقَةَ تُضْرِمُ عَلَى أَهْلِ الْبَيْتِ بَيْتَهُمْ»، وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ قُتَيْبَةُ فِي حَدِيثِهِ وَأَغْلِقُوا الْبَابَ،
