[Machine] From the Prophet's companion, who said: Shu'bah or Asim reported from Abu Tamimah, who reported from a man, who reported from the Prophet that his donkey stumbled. So I said, "May the devil be cursed." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Do not curse the devil, for when you curse him, he becomes more arrogant. Instead, say, 'In the name of Allah,' and he will shrink until he becomes like a fly."
عَنْ رَدِيفِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ أَوْ قَالَ عَاصِمٌ عَنْ أَبِي تَمِيمَةَ عَنْ رَجُلٍ عَنْ رَدِيفِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ عَثَرَ بِالنَّبِيِّ ﷺ حِمَارُهُ فَقُلْتُ تَعِسَ الشَّيْطَانُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لَا تَقُلْ تَعِسَ الشَّيْطَانُ فَإِنَّكَ إِذَا قُلْتَ تَعِسَ الشَّيْطَانُ تَعَاظَمَ وَقَالَ بِقُوَّتِي صَرَعْتُهُ وَإِذَا قُلْتَ بِسْمِ اللهِ تَصَاغَرَ حَتَّى يَصِيرَ مِثْلَ الذُّبَابِ
