صحيح ابن خزيمه
Sahih Ibn Khuzaymah
جماع أبواب صلاة التطوع بالليلChapters on Night Voluntary Prayers
(484) بَابُ الدَّلِيلِ عَلَى أَنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ يَعْقِدُ عَلَى قَافِيَةِ النِّسَاءِ كَعَقْدِهِ عَلَى قَافِيَةِ الرِّجَالِ بِاللَّيْلِ،
The chapter on the evidence that Satan ties knots on women as he does on men at night
Hadith Q1133
وَأَنَّ الْمَرْأَةَ تَحُلُّ عَنْ نَفْسِهَا عُقَدَ الشَّيْطَانِ بِذِكْرِ اللَّهِ وَالْوُضُوءِ وَالصَّلَاةِ كَالرَّجُلِ سَوَاءً
Just as he (Satan) ties knots on the nape of men, a woman can also untie the knots of Satan from herself, like a man, by remembering Allah, performing ablution, and offering prayer.
Hadith 1133
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى ، نَا عُمَرُ بْنُ حَفْصِ بْنِ غِيَاثٍ ، نَا أَبِي ، نَا الأَعْمَشُ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ أَبَا سُفْيَانَ ، يَقُولُ : سَمِعْتُ جَابِرًا ، يَقُولُ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " مَا مِنْ ذَكَرٍ وَلا أُنْثَى إِلا عَلَى رَأْسِهِ جَرِيرٌ مَعْقُودٌ حِينَ يَرْقُدُ ، فَإِنِ اسْتَيْقَظَ فَذَكَرَ اللَّهَ انْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةٌ ، فَإِذَا قَامَ فَتَوَضَّأَ وَصَلَّى انْحَلَّتِ الْعُقَدُ " . حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ ، عَنْ شَيْبَانَ ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ ، عَنْ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " مَا مِنْ ذَكَرٍ وَلا أُنْثَى إِلا عَلَيْهِ جَرِيرٌ مَعْقُودٌ حِينَ يَرْقُدُ بِاللَّيْلِ " ، بِمِثْلِهِ وَزَادَ " وَأَصْبَحَ خَفِيفًا طَيِّبَ النَّفْسِ ، قَدْ أَصَابَ خَيْرًا " قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ : الْجَرِيرُ : الْحَبْلُ
Abu Sufyan reports that I heard Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) say that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Knots are tied with a rope on the head of every man and woman when they sleep. Then if he wakes up and remembers Allah, one knot is untied. Then when he gets up, performs ablution, and prays, all the knots are untied." Abu Sufyan narrates from Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Every man and woman, when they sleep at night, a knot is tied on them with a rope." He narrated the hadith similar to the one above and added: "And in the morning he is light-hearted and cheerful, and he has attained much goodness." Imam Abu Bakr (may Allah have mercy on him) says that 'al-jareer' means rope.
