أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أنا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الصنْعَانِيُّ، نا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، نا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي رَافِعٍ: إنَّ خَالِدَ بْنَ الْوَلِيدِ، جَاءَ إِلَى
النَّبِيِّ ﷺ، فَشَكَا إِلَيْهِ وَحْشَةً يَجِدُهَا، فَقَالَ لَهُ: " أَلَا أُعَلِّمُكَ مَا عَلَّمَنِي الرُّوحُ الْأَمِينُ جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ؟ " قَالَ: " إِنَّ عِفْرِيتًا مِنَ الْجِنِّ يَكِيدُكَ، فَإِذَا أَوَيْتَ إِلَى فِرَاشِكَ فَقُلْ: أَعُوذُ بِكَلِمَاتِ اللهِ التَّامَّاتِ الَّتِي لَا يُجَاوِزُهُنَّ بَرٌّ وَلَا فَاجِرٌ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا يَنْزِلُ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ، وَمَا يَعْرُجُ فِيهَا، وَمِنْ شَرِّ مَا ذَرَأَ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَمِنْ شَرِّ مَا يَخْرُجُ مِنْهَا، وَمِنْ شَرِّ طَوَارِقِ اللَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ، وَمِنْ شَرِّ كُلِّ طَارِقٍ يَطْرُقُ إِلَّا بِخَيْرٍ يَا رَحْمَنُ "

He said: "Indeed, an ʿifrīt among the jinn is plotting against you.
