Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Last night, a rebellious jinn suddenly came to me; he wanted to disturb my prayer, but Allah Almighty gave me control over him. I thought of tying him to one of the pillars of the mosque so that you all could see him in the morning. Then I remembered the supplication of my brother Solomon: "O my Lord, grant me a kingdom such as shall not belong to anyone after me" (). Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) drove that devil away in disgrace.
