English translation

[858] 18 - (...) It was narrated that Suhail said: "My father sent me to Banû Hârithah, and with me was a slave of ours - or a friend of ours. A voice called him by name from behind a wall. The one who was with me looked over the wall but could not see anything. I mentioned that to my father and he said: 'If I had known that that would happen to you, I would not have sent you.' But (in future) if you hear a voice (and do not see anything), then give the call to prayer, for I heard Abû Hurairah narrating that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: "When the call to prayer is given, the Shaitân runs away quickly."

Arabic text

18 - (389) حَدَّثَنِي أُمَيَّةُ بْنُ بِسْطَامَ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ زُرَيْعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحٌ، عَنْ سُهَيْلٍ، قَالَ: أَرْسَلَنِي أَبِي إِلَى بَنِي حَارِثَةَ، قَالَ: وَمَعِي غُلَامٌ لَنَا - أَوْ صَاحِبٌ لَنَا - فَنَادَاهُ مُنَادٍ مِنْ حَائِطٍ بِاسْمِهِ قَالَ: وَأَشْرَفَ الَّذِي مَعِي عَلَى الْحَائِطِ فَلَمْ يَرَ شَيْئًا، فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِأَبِي فَقَالَ: لَوْ شَعَرْتُ أَنَّكَ تَلْقَ هَذَا لَمْ أُرْسِلْكَ، وَلَكِنْ إِذَا سَمِعْتَ صَوْتًا فَنَادِ بِالصَّلَاةِ فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: «إِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ إِذَا نُودِيَ بِالصَّلَاةِ وَلَّى وَلَهُ حُصَاصٌ»
