Hadith 3765
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ خَلَفٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ ، عَنْ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، يَقُولُ : " إِذَا دَخَلَ الرَّجُلُ بَيْتَهُ فَذَكَرَ اللَّهَ عِنْدَ دُخُولِهِ وَعِنْدَ طَعَامِهِ قَالَ الشَّيْطَانُ : لَا مَبِيتَ لَكُمْ وَلَا عَشَاءَ ، وَإِذَا دَخَلَ فَلَمْ يُذْكَرِ اللَّهَ عِنْدَ دُخُولِهِ قَالَ الشَّيْطَانُ : أَدْرَكْتُمُ الْمَبِيتَ ، فَإِذَا لَمْ يَذْكُرِ اللَّهَ عِنْدَ طَعَامِهِ ، قَالَ : أَدْرَكْتُمُ الْمَبِيتَ وَالْعَشَاءَ " .
Jabir bin Abdullah said that he heard the Prophet ﷺ say: 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.
