حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُرَحْبِيلُ بْنُ مُدْرِكٍ الْجُعْفِيُّ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ نُجَيٍّ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ قَالَ لِي عَلِيٌّ
كَانَتْ لِي مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْزِلَةٌ لَمْ تَكُنْ لِأَحَدٍ مِنَ الْخَلَائِقِ، إِنِّي كُنْتُ آتِيهِ كُلَّ سَحَرٍ، فَأُسَلِّمُ عَلَيْهِ حَتَّى يَتَنَحْنَحَ، وَإِنِّي جِئْتُ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ، فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ، فَقُلْتُ: السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ، فَقَالَ: عَلَى رِسْلِكَ يَا أَبَا حَسَنٍ حَتَّى أَخْرُجَ إِلَيْكَ، فَلَمَّا خَرَجَ إِلَيَّ، قُلْتُ: يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ، أَغْضَبَكَ أَحَدٌ ؟ قَالَ: لَا، قُلْتُ: فَمَا لَكَ لَمْ تُكَلِّمْنِي فِيمَا مَضَى حَتَّى كَلَّمْتَنِي اللَّيْلَةَ ؟ قَالَ: إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ فِي الْحُجْرَةِ حَرَكَةً، فَقُلْتُ: مَنْ هَذَا ؟ فَقَالَ: أَنَا جِبْرِيلُ قُلْتُ: ادْخُلْ، قَالَ: لَا، اخْرُجْ إِلَيَّ، فَلَمَّا خَرَجْتُ قَالَ: إِنَّ فِي بَيْتِكَ شَيْئًا لَا يَدْخُلُهُ مَلَكٌ مَا دَامَ فِيهِ، قُلْتُ: مَا أَعْلَمُهُ يَا جِبْرِيلُ، قَالَ: اذْهَبْ، فَانْظُرْ، فَفَتَحْتُ الْبَيْتَ، فَلَمْ أَجِدْ فِيهِ شَيْئًا غَيْرَ جَرْوِ كَلْبٍ كَانَ يَلْعَبُ بِهِ الْحَسَنُ، قُلْتُ: مَا وَجَدْتُ إِلَّا جَرْوًا، قَالَ: إِنَّهَا ثَلَاثٌ لَنْ يَلِجَ مَلَكٌ مَا دَامَ فِيهَا أَبَدًا وَاحِدٌ مِنْهَا: كَلْبٌ، أَوْ جَنَابَةٌ، أَوْ صُورَةُ رُوحٍ

✧ I had a standing with the Messenger of God ﷺ that no one else among creation had. I used to come to him every pre-dawn and greet him until he cleared his throat. One night I came and greeted him, saying: Peace be upon you, O Prophet of God. He said: 'Wait a moment, O Abu al-Hasan, until I come out to you.' When he came out to me, I said: O Prophet of God, has someone angered you? He said: 'No.' I said: Then why did you not speak to me before, until you spoke to me tonight? He said: 'I heard a movement in the room, so I said: Who is this? He said: I am Jibril. I said: Enter. He said: No, come out to me. When I came out, he said: There is something in your house that no angel enters while it remains there. I said: I do not know of it, O Jibril. He said: Go and look. So I opened the house and found nothing in it except a puppy that al-Hasan was playing with. I said: I found nothing but a puppy. He said: These are three things: an angel will never enter as long as any one of them is present—a dog, major ritual impurity, or an image of a living being.'

في إسناده عبد الله بن نجي قال البخاري فيه نظر
machine translationIn its chain is ʿAbdullāh b. Nujayy; al-Bukhārī said of him: "There is something questionable about him (fīhi naẓar)."
in مسند أحمد, p. 651 - الزيلعى
عبد الله بن نجي فيه مقال
machine translationThere is some criticism (maqāl) of ʿAbdullāh b. Nujayy.
in مسند أحمد, p. 651 - Abū Bakr Aḥmad b. al-Ḥusayn al-Bayhaqī
هذا مختلف في إسناده ومتنه قيل سبح وقيل تنحنح قال ومداره على عبد الله بن نجي قلت واختلف عليه فقيل عنه عن علي وقيل عن أبيه عن علي
machine translationThis is disputed in its chain and its text: it is said that he said "Subḥān Allāh", and it is said that he cleared his throat. He said: its basis rests on ʿAbdullāh b. Nujayy. I say: there is disagreement about him; it is said that he narrated from ʿAlī, and it is said that he narrated from his father, from ʿAlī.
