Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ عَنْ ذَرِّ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْهَمْدَانِيِّ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ شَدَّادٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَ
لَّمَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي أُحَدِّثُ نَفْسِي بِالشَّيْءِ لَأَنْ أَخِرَّ مِنْ السَّمَاءِ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ أَتَكَلَّمَ بِهِ قَالَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي رَدَّ كَيَدَهُ إِلَى الْوَسْوَسَةِ

Waki' narrated from Sufyan, from Mansur, from Dharr ibn 'Abdullah al-Hamdani, from 'Abdullah ibn Shaddad, from Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنهما) who said: A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, I have thoughts within myself that are such that I would rather fall from the sky than speak of them.' the Prophet ﷺ said: 'Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar. All praise be to Allah who has reduced his (Shaytan's) plot to mere whispering.'
