عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ غَطُّوا الْإِنَاءَ وَأَوْكِئُوا السِّقَاءَ فَإِنَّ فِي السَّنَةِ لَيْلَةً يَنْزِلُ فِيهَا وَبَاءٌ لَا يَمُرُّ بِإِنَاءٍ لَمْ يُغَطَّ وَلَا سِقَاءٍ لَمْ يُوكَ إِلَّا وَقَعَ فِيهِ مِنْ ذَلِكَ الْوَبَاءِ
Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Cover the vessels and tie the mouths of the water skins, for there is a night in the year in which a plague descends, and it enters every vessel that is not covered and every water skin whose mouth is not tied.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … In this hadith, one of the reasons for the ruling has also been mentioned; there can be further harms in not covering vessels and water skins, for example, being affected by some poisonous creature, something falling in and spoiling the water or drink, and so on.
