Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى عَنْ سُفْيَانَ حَدَّثَنِي مَنْصُورٌ عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَا مِنْكُمْ مِنْ أَحَدٍ إِلَّا وَقَدْ وُكِّلَ بِهِ قَرِينُهُ مِنْ الْجِنِّ وَقَرِينُهُ مِنْ الْمَلَائِكَةِ قَالُوا وَإِيَّاكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ وَإِيَّايَ وَلَكِنَّ اللَّهَ أَعَانَنِي عَلَيْهِ فَلَا يَأْمُرُنِي إِلَّا بِحَقٍّ.
English Translation
Yahya told us, from Sufyan: Mansur told me, from Salim ibn Abi al-Ja’d, from his father, from Abdullah, who said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, "There is not one of you but has been assigned a companion from among the jinn and a companion from among the angels." They said, "Even you, O Messenger of Allah?" He said, "Even me; but Allah has helped me against him, so he only commands me to what is right."
