وحَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الْحَمِيدِ بْنُ بَيَانٍ الْوَاسِطِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ يَعْنِي الطَّحَّانَ ، عَنْ سُهَيْلٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، قَالَ : كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَأْمُرُنَا إِذَا أَخَذْنَا مَضْجَعَنَا أَنْ نَقُولَ بِمِثْلِ حَدِيثِ جَرِيرٍ ، وَقَالَ : مِنْ شَرِّ كُلِّ دَابَّةٍ أَنْتَ آخِذٌ بِنَاصِيَتِهَا ،
Abu Hurairah (RA) reported that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) used to command us that as we go to our beds, we should utter the words (as mentioned above) and he also said (these words): "From the evil of every animal, Thou hast hold upon its forelock (Thou hast full control over it)."
