tabarani:16696ʿAlī b. ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz > Ibrāhīm b. ʿAbdullāh al-Harawī > ʿAbdullāh b. ʿUthmān b. Isḥāq b. Saʿd b. Abū Waqqāṣ > from Abū Ummī Mālik b. Ḥamzah b. Abū Usayd from his father from his grandfather Abū Usayd al-Sāʿidī al-Khazrajī > Walah Biʾr Bi-al-Madīnah

[Machine] It is called the Well of Goods, into which the Prophet ﷺ spat and blessed. Abu Umayr cut the fruit of his wall and put it in his room. The Ghul would come to his water trough and steal his dates, spoiling them. Abu Umayr complained to the Prophet ﷺ, who said, "That is the Ghul, O Abu Umayr. Listen to her and when you hear her entering, say 'In the name of Allah, the Messenger of Allah has prevented me.' Then the Ghul said, 'O Abu Umayr, let me go and I will not burden you. I will go to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and bring you a proof from Allah that I will not go to your house or steal your dates.' I will guide you to a verse from the Book of Allah that you can recite over your house, so that you do not go to your family or uncover your utensils.' She gave him the proof that pleased him, and said, 'The verse that I guide you to is Ayat al-Kursi.' Then she went and disappeared. Abu Umayr came to the Prophet ﷺ and narrated the story to him, where she had gone. The Prophet ﷺ said, 'She told the truth, but she is a liar.'
