Jabir b.’Abd Allah reported the Prophet ﷺas saying this version is not complete ‘’for the devil does not open a shut door, or loosen a water-skin, or uncover a vessel, for a mouse sets a house on fire over its inhabitants’’.
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِهَذَا الْخَبَرِ وَلَيْسَ بِتَمَامِهِ قَالَ فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ لاَ يَفْتَحُ بَابًا غَلَقًا وَلاَ يَحُلُّ وِكَاءً وَلاَ يَكْشِفُ إِنَاءً وَإِنَّ الْفُوَيْسِقَةَ تُضْرِمُ عَلَى النَّاسِ بَيْتَهُمْ أَوْ بُيُوتَهُمْ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Close the doors, cover the containers, put out the lamps, for indeed, Shaytan does not open a closed door, nor untie a tied knot, nor uncover a container. And verily, the sinful person sets fire to people's homes."
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «أَغْلِقُوا الْأَبْوَابَ وَأَوْكُوا السِّقَاءَ وَخَمِّرُوا الْإِنَاءَ وَأَطْفِئُوا الْمِصْبَاحَ فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ لَا يَفْتَحُ غَلَقًا وَلَا يَحُلُّ وِكَاءً وَلَا يَكْشِفُ إِنَاءً وَإِنَّ الْفُوَيْسِقَةَ تُضْرِمُ عَلَى النَّاسِ بَيْتَهُمْ»
That the Prophet ﷺ said: "Close the door, tie the water-skin, turn over the vessel, or cover the vessel, and extinguish the torch. Indeed Ash-Shaitan does not open what is closed, nor undo what is fastened, nor uncover a vessel, but the small vermin may cause a fire in people's houses." He said: There are narrations on this topic from Ibn 'Umar, Abu Hurairah, and Ibn 'Abbas. (Using translation from Tirmidhī 1812)
"أغلِقُوا الأبْوَابِ، وأوْكِئُوا السِّقَاءَ، وأكفِئُوا الإِنَاءَ، وَخَمِّرُوا الإِناءَ، وأطفِئُوا المِصْباحَ، فإِنَّ الشيطانَ لا يفتح غَلَقًا، ولا يحُلُّ وكاءً، ولا يَكْشِفُ إِناءً، وإن الفُويسِقةَ تَضْرِمُ على النَّاسِ بَيتَهُمْ".
