English

Volume 4, Book 54, Number 533:
Narrated Jabir bin 'Abdullah:
The Prophet said, "Cover your utensils and tie your water skins, and close your doors and keep
your children close to you at night, as the Jinns spread out at such time and snatch things away.
When you go to bed, put out your lights, for the mischief-doer (i.e. the rat) may drag away the wick
of the candle and burn the dwellers of the house." Ata said, "The devils." (instead of the Jinns).
