I was riding on a mount behind the prophet (May peace be upon him). It stumbled. Thereupon I said: May the devil perish! He said: do not say; may the devil perish! For you say that, he will swell so much so that he will be like a house, and say: by my power. But say: in the name of Allah; for when you say that, he will diminish so much so that he will be like a fly.  

كُنْتُ رَدِيفَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَعَثَرَتْ دَابَّتُهُ فَقُلْتُ تَعِسَ الشَّيْطَانُ فَقَالَ لاَ تَقُلْ تَعِسَ الشَّيْطَانُ فَإِنَّكَ إِذَا قُلْتَ ذَلِكَ تَعَاظَمَ حَتَّى يَكُونَ مِثْلَ الْبَيْتِ وَيَقُولَ بِقُوَّتِي وَلَكِنْ قُلْ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ فَإِنَّكَ إِذَا قُلْتَ ذَلِكَ تَصَاغَرَ حَتَّى يَكُونَ مِثْلَ الذُّبَابِ  

[Machine] Narrated by the Prophet ﷺ or someone who heard it from the Prophet ﷺ that his mount stumbled and he said, "May the devil be cursed!" Then he said, "Don't say that, for he becomes proud when you say that, until he becomes as large as a mountain and says, 'By my strength, I caused him to stumble.' But if you say 'Bismillah' (in the name of Allah), he becomes small until he becomes as small as a fly."  

عَنْ رِدْفِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَوْ مَنْ حَدَّثَهُ عَنْ رِدْفِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ كَانَ رِدْفَهُ فَعَثَرَتْ بِهِ دَابَّتُهُ فَقَالَ تَعِسَ الشَّيْطَانُ فَقَالَ لَا تَفْعَلْ فَإِنَّهُ يَتَعَاظَمُ إِذَا قُلْتَ ذَلِكَ حَتَّى يَصِيرَ مِثْلَ الْجَبَلِ وَيَقُولُ بِقُوَّتِي صَرَعْتُهُ وَإِذَا قُلْتَ بِسْمِ اللهِ تَصَاغَرَ حَتَّى يَكُونَ مِثْلَ الذُّبَابِ  

[Machine] From the rank of the messenger of Allah ﷺ , it became clear that his mount stumbled. So he said, "May Satan be cursed." The messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Do not say, 'May Satan be cursed,' for if you say, 'May Satan be cursed,' he becomes more arrogant. I seized him with my strength, and when the phrase 'In the name of Allah' is said, he becomes humiliated until he becomes like a fly."  

عَنْ رَدِيفِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنَّهُ عَثَرَتْ بِهِ دَابَّتُهُ فَقَالَ تَعِسَ الشَّيْطَانُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَا تَقُلْ تَعِسَ الشَّيْطَانُ فَإِنَّكَ إِنْ قُلْتَ تَعِسَ الشَّيْطَانُ تَعَاظَمَ وَقَالَ بِقُوَّتِي صَرَعْتُهُ وَإِذَا قِيلَ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ خَنَسَ حَتَّى يَصِيرَ مِثْلَ الذُّبَابِ  

[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.'"  

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  

[Machine] I was accompanying the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when our camel stumbled, so I said, "May the devil be cursed!" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Do not say, 'May the devil be cursed,' for he becomes proud until he becomes as great as a house, and he says with pride, 'By my power.' Instead, say, 'In the name of Allah,' for he will become as small as a fly."  

كُنْتُ رَدِيفَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَعَثَرَ بَعِيرُنَا فَقُلْتُ تَعِسَ الشَّيْطَانُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَا تَقُلْ تَعِسَ الشَّيْطَانُ فَإِنَّهُ يَعْظُمُ حَتَّى يَصِيرَ مِثْلَ الْبَيْتِ وَيَقُولَ بِقُوَّتِي قُلْ بِسْمِ اللهِ فَإِنَّهُ يَصِيرُ مِثْلَ الذُّبَابِ  

[Machine] On the authority of Ridfa, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "When a harmful creature stumbles upon you, do not say, 'May Satan be miserable,' for he becomes more arrogant until he becomes like a house and says, 'By my power, I have created it.' Rather, say 'In the name of Allah,' for he becomes smaller until he becomes like a fly."  

عَنْ رِدْفِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ نَحْوَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ إِذَا عَثَرَتْ بِكَ الدَّابَّةُ فَلَا تَقُلْ تَعِسَ الشَّيْطَانُ فَإِنَّهُ يَتَعَاظَمُ حَتَّى يَصِيرَ مِثْلَ الْبَيْتِ وَيَقُولُ بِقُوَّتِي صَنَعَتُهُ وَلَكِنْ قُلْ بِاسْمِ اللهِ فَإِنَّهُ يَتَصَاغَرُ حَتَّى يَصِيرَ مِثْلَ الذُّبَابِ
