قَالَ عَبْدٌ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَيُّوبَ، حَدَّثَنَا حَرَامُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ، عَنِ ابْنَيْ جَابِرٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِمَا ؓ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:
« إِذَا أَتَى أَحَدُكُمْ بَابَ حُجْرَتِهِ، فَلْيُسَمِّ، فَإِنَّهُ يَرْجِعُ قَرِينُهُ الَّذِي مَعَهُ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ، فَإِذَا دَخَلْتُمْ حُجْرَتَكُمْ، فَسَمُّوا يَخْرُجْ سَاكِنُهَا مِنَ الشَّيَاطِينِ، فَإِذَا رَحَلْتُمْ، فَسَمُّوا عَلَى أَوَّلِ حِلْسٍ تَضَعُونَهُ عَلَى دَوَابِّكُمْ، لَا يَشْرَكْكُمُ الشَّيْطَانُ فِي مَرْكَبِهَا، فَإِذَا أَنْتُمْ لَمْ تَفْعَلُوا شَرَكَكُمْ، وَإِذَا أَكَلْتُمْ، فَسَمُّوا، حَتَّى لَا يَشْرَكَكُمْ فِي طَعَامِكُمْ، فَإِنَّكُمْ إِنْ لَمْ تَفْعَلُوا شَرَكَكُمْ فِي طَعَامِكُمْ، وَلَا تُبَيِّتُوا الْقُمَامَةَ مَعَكُمْ فِي حُجَرِكُمْ، فَإِنَّهَا مَقْعَدُهُ، وَلَا تُبَيِّتُوا الْمِنْدِيلَ فِي بُيُوتِكُمْ، فَإِنَّهَا مَضْجَعُهُ، وَلَا تَفْتَرِشُوا الْوَلَايَا الَّتِي عَلَى ظُهُورِ الدَّوَابِّ، وَلَا تَسْكُنُوا بُيُوتًا غَيْرَ مُغْلَقَةٍ، وَلَا تَبِيتُوا عَلَى سُطُوحٍ غَيْرِ مَحُوطٍ، فَإِذَا سَمِعْتُمْ نُبَاحَ الْكَلْبِ، وَنَهِيقَ الْحِمَارِ، فَاسْتَعِيذُوا بِاللهِ، فَإِنَّهُ لَا يَنْهَقُ حِمَارٌ، وَلَا يَنْبَحُ كَلْبٌ إِلَّا حِينَ يَرَاهُ

✧ "When one of you comes to the door of his room, let him mention the name of Allah, for then his companion from the devils who is with him will turn back. When you enter your rooms, mention the name of Allah and its inhabitant from the devils will leave. When you set out, mention the name of Allah over the first saddle cloth you place on your mounts, so that the devil does not share the riding with you. If you do not do so, he shares with you. When you eat, mention the name of Allah, so that he does not share your food with you, for if you do not, he shares your food with you. Do not leave garbage with you overnight in your rooms, for it is his seat. Do not leave the towel overnight in your houses, for it is his bed. Do not spread out the saddle cloths that are on the backs of mounts. Do not dwell in houses that are not locked. Do not spend the night on roofs that are not walled. When you hear the barking of a dog or the braying of a donkey, seek refuge in Allah, for a donkey does not bray and a dog does not bark except when it sees him."
