٥٣۔ كِتَابُ عَمَلِ الْيَوْمِ وَاللَّيْلَةِ عَوْنُكَ يَا رَبِّ عَلَى مَا بَقِيَ
[Machine] He informed him that they had a container with dates in it. Ubayy was responsible for it, so he found it to be decreasing, and he guarded it. Then he saw a creature resembling a young boy. He said, "I give my greetings," and the creature replied with a return of greetings. So I said, "Are you a jinn or a human?" The creature said, "I am a jinn." He said, "Extend your hand to me," and the creature extended its hand. Then he saw a hand resembling a dog's hand and hair like a dog's hair. He said, "This is how the jinn are created." Ubayy said to him, "What made you do what you did?" The creature said, "We heard that you are a man who loves charity, so we wanted to share in your food." Ubayy said, "What will protect us from you?" The creature said, "This is the Ayat al-Kursi." Then Ubayy went to the Prophet ﷺ and informed him, and the Prophet ﷺ said, "The impure one has spoken the truth."
أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُ كَانَ لَهُمْ جُرْنٌ فِيهِ تَمْرٌ وَكَانَ أُبَيٌّ يَتَعَاهَدُهُ فَوَجَدَهُ يَنْقُصُ فَحَرَسَهُ فَإِذَا هُوَ بِدَابَّةٍ تُشْبِهُ الْغُلَامَ الْمُحْتَلِمَ قَالَ فَسَلَّمَتْ فَرَدَّ السَّلَامَ فَقُلْتُ مَنْ أَنْتَ أَجِنٌّ أَمْ إِنْسٌ؟ قَالَ جِنٌّ قَالَ فَنَاوِلْنِي يَدَكَ فَنَاوَلَنِي يَدَهُ فَإِذَا يَدُ كَلْبٍ وَشَعْرُ كَلْبٍ قَالَ هَكَذَا خَلْقُ الْجِنِّ قَالَ لَقَدْ عَلِمْتَ الْجِنَّ مَا فِيهِمْ أَشَدُّ مِنِّي قَالَ لَهُ أُبَيٌّ مَا حَمَلَكَ عَلَى مَا صَنَعْتَ؟ قَالَ بَلَغَنَا أَنَّكَ رَجُلٌ تُحِبُّ الصَّدَقَةَ فَأَحْبَبْنَا أَنْ نُصِيبَ مِنْ طَعَامِكَ قَالَ أُبَيٌّ فَمَا الَّذِي يُجِيرُنَا مِنْكُمْ؟ قَالَ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ آيَةُ الْكُرْسِيِّ ثُمَّ غَدَا أُبَيٌّ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَأَخْبَرَهُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «صَدَقَ الْخَبِيثُ»
[Machine] "My grandfather had a jar of dates, and he noticed that it was decreasing. So he guarded it one night, and there he saw a creature resembling a young boy. He greeted it, and it returned the greeting. He asked, 'Who are you, a jinn or a human?' It replied, 'No, I am a jinn.' He said, 'Show me your hand.' And there was a dog's hand and fur. He said, 'This is how jinn are created.' My grandfather said, 'I have heard that among you is a man who is stronger than me.' The jinn said, 'What is your concern?' He said, 'I have heard that you are a man who loves charity, so we wanted to have a share of your food.' The jinn asked, 'Will you protect us from you?' He replied, 'This is the verse in Surah Al-Baqarah: 'Allah! There is no deity except Him, the Ever-Living, the Sustainer of existence. Neither drowsiness overtakes Him nor sleep.' [Quran 2:255] If you recite it in the morning, you will be protected from us until the evening, and if you recite it in the evening, you will be protected from us until the morning.' The next day, Ubayy went to the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ and informed him of what happened. The Prophet ﷺ confirmed its veracity and said, 'The evildoer has spoken the truth.'"
كَانَ لِجَدِّي جُرْنٌ مِنْ تَمْرٍ فَجَعَلَ يَجِدُهُ يَنْقُصُ فَحَرَسَهُ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ فَإِذَا هُوَ بِدَابَّةٍ شِبْهُ الْغُلَامِ الْمُحْتَلِمِ فَسَلَّمَ عَلَيْهِ فَرَدَّ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامَ فَقَالَ مَنْ أَنْتَ أَجِنٌّ أَمْ إِنْسٌ؟ قَالَ لَا بَلْ جِنٌّ قَالَ أَعْطِنِي يَدَكَ فَإِذَا يَدُ كَلْبٍ وَشَعْرُ كَلْبٍ قَالَ هَكَذَا خَلْقُ الْجِنِّ قَالَ قَدْ عَلِمْتَ الْجِنَّ مَا فِيهِمْ رَجُلٌ أَشَدُّ مِنِّي قَالَ مَا شَأْنُكَ؟ قَالَ أُنْبِئْتُ أَنَّكَ رَجُلٌ تُحِبُّ الصَّدَقَةَ فَأَحْبَبْنَا أَنْ نُصِيبَ مِنْ طَعَامِكَ قَالَ مَا يُجِيرُنَا مِنْكُمْ؟ قَالَ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ الَّتِي فِي سُورَةِ الْبَقَرَةِ {اللهُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا هُوَ الْحَيُّ الْقَيُّومُ لَا تَأْخُذُهُ سِنَةٌ وَلَا نَوْمٌ} [البقرة 255] إِذَا قُلْتَهَا حِينَ تُصْبِحُ أُجِرْتَ مِنَّا إِلَى أَنْ تُمْسِيَ وَإِذَا قُلْتَهَا حِينَ تُمْسِي أُجِرْتَ مِنَّا إِلَى أَنْ تُصْبِحَ فَغَدَا أُبَيٌّ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَأَخْبَرَهُ خَبَرَهُ قَالَ «صَدَقَ الْخَبِيثُ» [353] 10732 أَخْبَرَنِي إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ مُوسَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ عَنْ يَحْيَى عَنِ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ بْنِ لَاحِقٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ كَانَ أُبَيُّ بْنُ كَعْبٍ جَدُّ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ كَانَ لِأَبِي جُرْنٌ مِنْ طَعَامٍ فَذَكَرَ نَحْوَهُ
[Machine] " The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'None of you should place one foot over the other, recline and recite Surah Al-Baqarah, for indeed Satan flees from the house in which Surah Al-Baqarah is recited. Indeed, the interior of the houses becomes yellow, exactly as the external appearance of fire, from the Book of Allah ﷻ.'"
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَا أَلْفَيَنَّ أَحَدَكُمْ يَضَعُ إِحْدَى رِجْلَيْهِ عَلَى الْأُخْرَى يَتَغَنَّى وَيَدَعُ سُورَةَ الْبَقَرَةِ يَقْرَؤُهَا فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ يَنْفُرُ مِنَ الْبَيْتِ تُقْرَأُ فِيهِ الْبَقَرَةُ وَإِنَّ أَصْفَرَ الْبُيُوتِ الْجَوْفُ الصِّفْرُ مِنْ كِتَابِ اللهِ ﷻ»
[Machine] Abdullah said, "Teach the Quran to your children so that they can grow with it, and do not let your elders be distant from it, for surely, Satan flees from a house in which Surah Al-Baqarah is recited."
قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ «جَرِّدُوا الْقُرْآنَ لِيَرْبُوَ فِيهِ صَغِيرُكُمْ وَلَا يَنْأَى عَنْهُ كَبِيرُكُمْ فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ يَفِرُّ مِنَ الْبَيْتِ يُسْمَعُ تُقْرَأُ فِيهِ سُورَةُ الْبَقَرَةِ»
Do not make your houses as graveyards. Satan runs away from the house in which Surah Baqara is recited. (Using translation from Muslim 780)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «لَا تَجْعَلُوا بُيُوتَكُمْ مَقَابِرَ إِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ يَنْفُرُ مِنَ الْبَيْتِ الَّذِي تُقْرَأُ فِيهِ سُورَةُ الْبَقَرَةِ»
[Machine] "Indeed, He has revealed from that Book two signs, which He sealed with them Surah Al-Baqarah, and indeed Satan does not enter a house in which these two signs are recited for three nights, As'ath bin Abdul-Rahman opposed this."
وَأَنَّهُ أَنْزَلَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ الْكِتَابِ آيَتَيْنِ خَتَمَ بِهِمَا سُورَةَ الْبَقَرَةِ وَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ لَا يَلِجُ بَيْتًا قُرِئَتَا فِيهِ ثَلَاثَ لَيَالٍ خَالَفَهُ أَشْعَثُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ
that the Prophet ﷺ said: "Indeed Allah wrote in a book two thousand years before He created the heavens and the earth, and He sent down two Ayat from it to end Surat Al-Baqarah with. If they are recited for three nights in a home, no Shaitan shall come near it." (Using translation from Tirmidhī 2882)
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَقَالَ عَمْرُو إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «إِنَّ اللهَ كَتَبَ كِتَابًا قَبْلَ أَنْ يَخْلُقَ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ بِأَلْفَيْ عَامٍ فَأَنْزَلَ مِنْهُ آيَتَيْنِ خَتَمَ بِهِمَا سُورَةَ الْبَقَرَةِ فَلَا تُقْرَآنِ فِي دَارٍ ثَلَاثَ لَيَالٍ فَيَقْرَبُهَا شَيْطَانٌ»
