[Machine] The devils had seats in the sky, and they used to listen to the revelation. The stars did not move, and the devils were not chased away. Then, when they heard the revelation, they would descend to the earth and increase their lies by nine. So when the Prophet ﷺ was sent, the devil would come to his seat and a meteor would not leave him until it burned him. They complained about this to Iblis, who said, "This is nothing but an occurrence that happened." He then scattered his troops. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood praying between the two palm trees (during the Night Journey), they returned to Iblis and informed him. He said, "It is he who caused it."
