It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Iblis entered Iraq and fulfilled his need; he entered Syria, and its people drove him away until he reached Sibaq; and he entered Egypt, where he laid eggs, hatched young and spread out his carpet."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "Only Uqayl (may Allah have mercy on him) narrated this hadith from Imam al-Zuhri (may Allah have mercy on him), and no one narrated it from Uqayl (may Allah have mercy on him) except Ibn Lahi'ah (may Allah have mercy on him) and Yahya bin Ayyub (may Allah have mercy on him), while Ibn Wahb (may Allah have mercy on him) is alone in narrating it from them."
