أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الْحَمِيدِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُبَشِّرٌ عَنِ الْأَوْزَاعِيِّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ أُبَيٍّ أَنَّ أَبَاهُ
أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُ كَانَ لَهُمْ جُرْنٌ فِيهِ تَمْرٌ وَكَانَ أُبَيٌّ يَتَعَاهَدُهُ فَوَجَدَهُ يَنْقُصُ فَحَرَسَهُ فَإِذَا هُوَ بِدَابَّةٍ تُشْبِهُ الْغُلَامَ الْمُحْتَلِمَ قَالَ فَسَلَّمَتْ فَرَدَّ السَّلَامَ فَقُلْتُ مَنْ أَنْتَ أَجِنٌّ أَمْ إِنْسٌ؟ قَالَ جِنٌّ قَالَ فَنَاوِلْنِي يَدَكَ فَنَاوَلَنِي يَدَهُ فَإِذَا يَدُ كَلْبٍ وَشَعْرُ كَلْبٍ قَالَ هَكَذَا خَلْقُ الْجِنِّ قَالَ لَقَدْ عَلِمْتَ الْجِنَّ مَا فِيهِمْ أَشَدُّ مِنِّي قَالَ لَهُ أُبَيٌّ مَا حَمَلَكَ عَلَى مَا صَنَعْتَ؟ قَالَ بَلَغَنَا أَنَّكَ رَجُلٌ تُحِبُّ الصَّدَقَةَ فَأَحْبَبْنَا أَنْ نُصِيبَ مِنْ طَعَامِكَ قَالَ أُبَيٌّ فَمَا الَّذِي يُجِيرُنَا مِنْكُمْ؟ قَالَ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ آيَةُ الْكُرْسِيِّ ثُمَّ غَدَا أُبَيٌّ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَأَخْبَرَهُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «صَدَقَ الْخَبِيثُ»

✧ He informed him that they had a palm-branch enclosure with dates in it, and Ubayy used to tend it. He found it decreasing, so he guarded it, and there was a creature resembling a full-grown boy. He said: It greeted me, so I returned the greeting and said, “Who are you, jinn or human?” He said, “Jinn.” I said, “Give me your hand.” He gave me his hand, and it was a dog's paw with dog's hair. He said, “Thus is the creation of the jinn.” He said, “The jinn know that none among them is stronger than I.” Ubayy said to him, “What made you do what you did?” He said, “We heard that you are a man who loves charity, so we wanted to get some of your food.” Ubayy said, “What protects us from you?” He said, “This verse, Ayat al-Kursi.” Then Ubayy went to the Prophet ﷺ and told him, and the Prophet ﷺ said, “The wicked one spoke the truth.”
