English Translation

It was narrated from Jabir ibn Samurah (may Allah be pleased with him) that during the prayer, the Prophet ﷺ reached toward something in front of him. When he finished, the people asked him about it. He said: 'That was Shaytan — he was throwing sparks of fire at me to distract me from my prayer. I grabbed him and if I had caught him, I would have tied him to a pillar of the mosque.'
