About Devils Presenting Themselves to Humans (142)

Suhayl bin Abi Salih said: My father sent me to Banee Hãrithata and with me was a young slave, or a friend of ours, then someone called him by his name from a fence, so the one that was with me overlooked upon the fence; however, he did not see anything. So I mentioned that to my father, he said: If I had sensed that you would encounter this I would not have sent you. However, if you ever hear a sound, then make the call to salãt, because I have heard Aba Hurayrata

telling, of the Prophet

, that he said: "When the salãt is called to, the shaytãn goes (turns) away."
