  • (2012 )  عَنْ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِالله رضي الله عنهما  عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ  صلى الله عليه وسلم أَنَّهُ  قَالَ :  (( إِذَا كَانَ جُنْحُ اللَّيْلِ – أَوْ أَمْسَيْتُمْ –  فَكُفُّوا صِبْيَانَكُمْ ؛ فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ يَنْتَشِرُ حِينَئِذٍ ؛ فَإِذَا ذَهَبَ سَاعَةٌ مِنْ اللَّيْلِ فَخَلُّوهُمْ ؛ وَأَغْلِقُوا الأَبْوَابَ ؛ وَاذْكُرُوا اسْمَ الله ؛ فَإنَّ الشَّيطَانَ لا يَفْتَحُ بَاباً مُغْلَقًا ؛ وَأَوْكُوا قِرَبَكُمْ ؛ وَاذْكُرُوا اسْمَ الله ؛ وَخَمِّرُوا آنِيَتَكُمْ ؛ وَاذْكُرُوا اسْمَ الله ؛ وَلَوْ أَنْ تَعْرُضُوا عَلَيْهَا شَيْئًا ؛ وَاطْفِئُوا مَصَابِيحَكُمْ )) 

( البخاري ومسلم )

Jabir b. ‘Abdullah reported Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) having said

When the wings of the night (spread) or it is night, restrain your children (from going out), for the Satan is abroad at that time, and when a part of the night is passed, free them and shut the doors. making mention of God’s name, for the Satan does not open a closed door; and tighten the (mouths of waterskins and mention the name of Allah, cover your utensils and mention the name of Allah even though you should just put something on them, and extinguish your lamps

(Bukhari and Muslim)

  • (2018)  عَنْ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِالله  رضي الله عنهما  أَنَّه سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ (( إِذَا دَخَلَ الرَّجُلُ  بَيْتَهُ  فَذَكَرَ الله عِنْدَ دُخُولِهِ وَعِنْدَ طَعَامِهِ ؛ قَالَ الشَّيْطَانُ : لا مَبِيتَ لَكُمْ  وَلا عَشَاءَ ؛ وَإِذَا دَخَلَ ؛ فَلَمْ يَذْكُرِ الله عِنْدَ دُخُولِهِ  قَالَ الشَّيْطَانُ : أَدْرَكْتُمُ المَبَيتَ ؛ وَإِذَا لَمْ يَذْكُرِ الله عِنْدَ طَعَامِهِ قَالَ : أَدْرَكْتُمُ المَبِيتَ وَالعَشَاءَ ))

( صحيح مسلم )

Jabir bin ‘Abd Allah said that he heard the Prophet(peace be upon him) say

When a man enters his house and mention Allah’s name on entering and on his food, the devil says: You have no place to spend the night and no evening meal; but when he enters without mentioning Allah’s name on entering, the devil says: You have found a place to spend the night, and when he does not mention Allah’s name at his food, he says: You have found a place to spend the night and an evening meal

( Sahih Muslim )

  • (2033)  عَنْ جَابِرٍ رضي الله عنه  قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ الله صلى الله عليه وسلم  يَقُولُ : (( إِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ  يَحْضُرُ أَحَدَكُمْ عِنْدَ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ  مِنْ شَأْنِهِ ؛ حَتَّى يَحْضُرَهُ عِنْدَ طَعَامِهِ ؛ فَإِذَا سَقَطَتْ مِنْ أَحَدِكُمُ اللُّقْمَةُ ؛ فَلْيُمِطْ مَا كَانَ بِهَا مِنْ أَذَى ؛ ثُمَّ لِيَأكُلْهَا ؛ وَلَا يَدَعْهَا لِلشَّيْطَانِ ؛ فَإِذَا فَرَغَ  فَلْيَلْعَقْ  أَصَابِعَهُ ؛ فَإِنَّهُ لا يَدْرِي فِي أَيِّ طَعَامِهِ تَكُونُ البَرَكَةُ ))

( صحيح مسلم )

Jabir reported

I heard Allah’s Apostle (peace be upon him) as saying: The Satan is present with any one of you in everything he does; he is present even when he eats food; so if any one of you drops a mouthful he should remove away anything filthy on it and eat it and not leave for the devil; and when he finishes (food) he should lick his fingers, for he does not know in what portion of his food the blessing lies

( Sahih Muslim )
