Arabic (Original)
أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُوسَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَا يَسْتَلْقِ الْإِنْسَانُ عَلَى قَفَاهُ وَيَضَعْ إِحْدَى رِجْلَيْهِ عَلَى الْأُخْرَى»
English Translation
Abdullah ibn Ahmad ibn Musa informed us, he said: Hisham ibn Ammar narrated to us, he said: Al-Walid ibn Muslim narrated to us, from Ibn Jurayj, from Abu al-Zubayr, from Jabir, who said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Cover the vessels, tie the waterskins, close the doors, and extinguish the lamps, for indeed the devil does not open a closed door, nor untie a tied waterskin, nor uncover a covered vessel. And if one of you cannot find anything except to place a stick across his vessel and mention Allah's name, let him do so. For indeed the mouse can set fire to people's houses.'
