nasai-kubra:6724Yūsuf b. Saʿīd > Ḥajjāj > Ibn Jurayj > Abū al-Zubayr > Jābir

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. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3765)  

الكبرى للنسائي:٦٧٢٤أَخْبَرَنَا يُوسُفُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «إِذَا دَخَلَ الرَّجُلُ بَيْتَهُ فَذَكَرَ اللهَ عِنْدَ دُخُولِهِ وَعِنْدَ طَعَامِهِ» قَالَ الشَّيْطَانُ لَا مَبِيتَ وَلَا عَشَاءَ لَكُمْ هَاهُنَا وَإِذَا دَخَلَ فَلَمْ يَذْكُرِ اللهَ عِنْدَ دُخُولِهِ قَالَ الشَّيْطَانُ أَدْرَكْتُمُ الْمَبِيتَ وَإِنْ لَمْ يَذْكُرِ اسْمَ اللهِ عِنْدَ طَعَامِهِ قَالَ أَدْرَكْتُمُ الْمَبِيتَ وَالْعَشَاءَ
