Hadith 1388

Sayyiduna Sulaiman bin Surad (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I was sitting with the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and two men were abusing each other. One of them's face turned red with anger and his veins swelled. Then the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: "I know a supplication, if this person recites it, his anger will go away. If he says: 'A'udhu billahi minash-shaytanir-rajim' (I seek refuge with Allah from the accursed devil), his anger will depart." So the people said to that person that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) has said this, so seek refuge with Allah from the devil! He said: "Am I mad (that I should seek refuge from the devil)?" (Perhaps this person was an ignorant villager or a hypocrite, so he did not accept this advice.)
