[Machine] I was a companion of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and our camel stumbled, so I said, "May the devil be cursed." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Do not curse the devil, for he becomes big by it until he becomes the size of a house and says, 'By my power.' But say, 'In the name of Allah,' for he becomes small by it until he becomes the size of a fly." Abu Abdullah Al-Sawwab said, "The correct narration according to us is the hadith of Abdullah bin Al-Mubarak, and this mistake (10314) is with me." Muhammad bin Bashshar informed us, Abdul Wahhab told us, Khaled informed us from Abu Tamimah from Abu Al-Malih who said: "A man was riding with the Prophet ﷺ on his mount, and the mount stumbled, so the man said, 'May the devil be cursed,' while facing him (the devil)."  

كُنْتُ رَدِيفَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَعَثَرَ بَعِيرُنَا فَقُلْتُ تَعِسَ الشَّيْطَانُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لَا تَقُلْ تَعِسَ الشَّيْطَانُ فَإِنَّهُ يَعْظُمُ حَتَّى يَصِيرَ مِثْلَ الْبَيْتِ وَيَقُولُ بِقُوَّتِي وَلَكِنْ قُلْ بِاسْمِ اللهِ فَإِنَّهُ يَصْغُرُ حَتَّى يَصِيرَ مِثْلَ الذُّبَابِ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الصَّوَابُ عِنْدَنَا حَدِيثُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الْمُبَارَكِ وَهَذَا عِنْدِي خَطَأٌ 10314 أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ عَنْ أَبِي تَمِيمَةَ عَنْ أَبِي الْمَلِيحِ قَالَ كَانَ رَجُلٌ رَدِيفَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ عَلَى دَابَّتِهِ فَعَثَرَتْ بِهِ دَابَّتُهُ فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ تَعِسَ الشَّيْطَانُ نَحْوَهُ مُرْسَلٌ
