Hadith 5259
اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْهَمْدَانِيُّ أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ , قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنِي مَالِكٌ , عَنْ صَيْفِيٍّ مَوْلَى ابْنِ أَفْلَحَ , قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو السَّائِبِ مَوْلَى هِشَامِ بْنِ زُهْرَةَ , أَنَّهُ دَخَلَ عَلَى أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ , فَذَكَرَ نَحْوَهُ وَأَتَمَّ مِنْهُ , قَالَ : فَآذِنُوهُ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ , فَإِنْ بَدَا لَكُمْ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ فَاقْتُلُوهُ , فَإِنَّمَا هُوَ شَيْطَانٌ .
The tradition mentioned above has also been transmitted by Abu Saeed al-Khudri in a similar manner through a different chain of narrators. This version is more perfect. In this version he said: give it a warning for three days; if it appears to you after that, then kill it, for it is only a devil.
