حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى عَنْ أَخِيهِ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى عَنْ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ

أَنَّهُ كَانَ فِي سَهْوَةٍ لَهُ، فَكَانَتِ الْغُولُ تَجِيءُ فَتَأْخُذُ، فَشَكَاهَا إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ: إِذَا رَأَيْتَهَا فَقُلْ: بِاسْمِ اللهِ أَجِيبِي رَسُولَ اللهِ، قَالَ: فَجَاءَتْ فَقَالَ لَهَا: فَأَخَذَهَا، فَقَالَتْ لَهُ: إِنِّي لَا أَعُودُ، فَأَرْسَلَهَا فَجَاءَ، فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: مَا فَعَلَ أَسِيرُكَ؟ قَالَ: أَخَذْتُهَا، فَقَالَتْ لِي: إِنِّي لَا أَعُودُ فَأَرْسَلْتُهَا. فَقَالَ: إِنَّهَا عَائِدَةٌ فَأَخَذْتُهَا مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثًا، كُلَّ ذَلِكَ تَقُولُ: لَا أَعُودُ، وَيَجِيءُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَيَقُولُ: مَا فَعَلَ أَسِيرُكَ؟ فَيَقُولُ: أَخَذْتُهَا. فَتَقُولُ: لَا أَعُودُ. فَيَقُولُ: إِنَّهَا عَائِدَةٌ فَأَخَذَهَا، فَقَالَتْ: أَرْسِلْنِي وَأُعَلِّمُكَ شَيْئًا تَقُولُهُ فَلَا يَقْرَبُكَ شَيْءٌ، آيَةَ الْكُرْسِيِّ. فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَأَخْبَرَهُ، فَقَالَ: صَدَقَتْ وَهِيَ كَذُوبٌ.

✧ He had [a storage room] in an upper chamber [sahwah], and a ghul [a type of jinn] would come and take [things]. He complained about it to the Prophet ﷺ, who said: 'When you see it, say: "In the name of Allah, respond to the Messenger of Allah."' He said: So it came, and he said that to it, and he seized it. It said to him: 'I will not return.' So he released it. Then he came [to the Prophet], and the Prophet ﷺ said to him: 'What did your captive do?' He said: 'I seized it, and it said to me: "I will not return," so I released it.' The Prophet said: 'It will return.' So he seized it twice or three times, each time it said: 'I will not return,' and he would come to the Prophet ﷺ, who would say: 'What did your captive do?' He would say: 'I seized it.' It would say: 'I will not return.' He would say: 'It will return.' So he seized it, and it said: 'Release me and I will teach you something that you can say, and then nothing will come near you: Ayat al-Kursi [the Throne Verse].' So he came to the Prophet ﷺ and informed him, and he said: 'It told the truth, though it is a liar.'
