✧ He had a loft, and a ghoul used to come and enter it. He complained about it to the Prophet ﷺ, who said: "When you see it, say: 'Bismillah, answer the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.'" So it came and he said that to it, and he seized it. It said: "I will not return," so he released it. Then he went to the Prophet ﷺ and he said to him: "What did your captive do?" He said: "I seized it, and it said: 'I will not return,' so I released it." He said: "It will return." He seized it two or three times, each time it said: "I will not return," and the Prophet ﷺ would say: "What did your captive do?" and he would say: "I seized it, and it said: 'I will not return,'" and he would say: "It will return." Then I seized it and it said: "Release me and I will teach you something you can say so that nothing will come near you: the Verse of the Throne (Ayat al-Kursi)." So I went to the Prophet ﷺ and informed him, and he said: "She spoke the truth, though she is a liar."
