حَدَّثَنِي أُمَيَّةُ بْنُ بِسْطَامَ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ زُرَيْعٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحٌ ، عَنْ سُهَيْلٍ ، قَالَ : أَرْسَلَنِي أَبِي إِلَى بَنِي حَارِثَةَ ، قَالَ : وَمَعِي غُلَامٌ لَنَا ، أَوْ صَاحِبٌ لَنَا ، فَنَادَاهُ مُنَادٍ مِنْ حَائِطٍ بِاسْمِهِ ، قَالَ : وَأَشْرَفَ الَّذِي مَعِي عَلَى الْحَائِطِ ، فَلَمْ يَرَ شَيْئًا ، فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِأَبِي ، فَقَالَ : لَوْ شَعَرْتُ أَنَّكَ تَلْقَ هَذَا ، لَمْ أُرْسِلْكَ ، وَلَكِنْ إِذَا سَمِعْتَ صَوْتًا ، فَنَادِ بِالصَّلَاةِ ، فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يُحَدِّثُ ، عَنِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ : " إِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ ، إِذَا نُودِيَ بِالصَّلَاةِ ، وَلَّى وَلَهُ حُصَاصٌ " .
Suhail reported that his father sent him to Banu Haritha along with a boy or a man. Someone called him by his name from an enclosure. He (the narrator) said: The person with me looked towards the enclosure, but saw nothing. I made a mention of that to my father. He said: If I knew that you would meet such a situation I would have never sent you (there), but (bear in mind) whenever you hear such a call (from the evil spirits) pronounce the Adhan. for I have heard Abu Hurairah (RA) say that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Whenever Adhan is proclaimed, Satan runs back vehemently.
