HAKIM 7793: from Abū al-Malīḥ b. Usāmah from his father —
[Machine] "I was a companion of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , and our camel stumbled. I said, 'May the Shaytan be cursed.' The Prophet ﷺ said to me, 'Do not curse the Shaytan, for he becomes arrogant and powerful when you do so, until he becomes the size of a housefly. Instead, say Bismillah (in the name of Allah). When you say Bismillah, he diminishes in size until he becomes like a tiny fly.'"

الحاكم ٧٧٩٣: عن ابو المليح بن اسامه عن أبيه —
كُنْتُ رَدِيفَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَعَثَرَ بَعِيرُنَا فَقُلْتُ تَعِسَ الشَّيْطَانُ فَقَالَ لِي النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لَا تَقُلْ تَعِسَ الشَّيْطَانُ فَإِنَّهُ يَسْتَعْظِمُ حَتَّى يَكُونَ مِثْلَ الْبَيْتِ وَيَقْوَى وَلَكِنْ قُلْ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ فَإِذَا قُلْتَ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ تَصَاغَرَ حَتَّى يَصِيرَ مِثْلَ الذُّبَابِ
