English translation

[17] It was narrated that ‘Âmir bin ‘Abdah said: “‘Abdullâh said: ‘The Shaitân appears in the form of a man, coming to people and telling them false reports. Then they disperse, and a man among them says: I heard a man whose face I recognize, but I do not know his name, telling me (such and such).’”

Arabic text

وحَدَّثَنِي أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الْأَشَجُّ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ، عَنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ بْنِ رَافِعٍ، عَنْ عَامِرِ بْنِ عَبْدَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ: " إِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ لِيَتَمَثَّلُ فِي صُورَةِ الرَّجُلِ، فَيَأْتِي الْقَوْمَ، فَيُحَدِّثُهُمْ بِالْحَدِيثِ مِنَ الْكَذِبِ، فَيَتَفَرَّقُونَ، فَيَقُولُ الرَّجُلُ مِنْهُمْ: سَمِعْتُ رَجُلًا أَعْرِفُ وَجْهَهُ، وَلَا أَدْرِي مَا اسْمُهُ يُحَدِّثُ "
