حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ الْحَنَفِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا الضَّحَّاكُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " إِنَّ أَحَدَكُمْ إِذَا كَانَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ جَاءَ الشَّيْطَانُ، فَأَبَسَ بِهِ كَمَا يَأْبِسُ الرَّجُلُ بِدَابَّتِهِ،، ، فَإِذَا سَكَنَ لَهُ زَنَقَهُ، أَوْ أَلْجَمَهُ " قَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ: " فَأَنْتُمْ تَرَوْنَ ذَلِكَ، أَمَّا الْمَزْنُوقُ فَتَرَاهُ مَائِلًا كَذَا، لَا يَذْكُرُ اللهَ، وَأَمَّا الْمَلْجُومُ فَفَاتِحٌ فَاهُ لَا يَذْكُرُ اللهَ (١)،
Translation
English translation
It is narrated from Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) said: When any one of you is in prayer, Satan comes to him and flatters him as a person flatters his animal. When he gains control over him, he binds his jaw or puts a bridle in his mouth. Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) says: That is why you will see the first man swaying here and there and not remembering Allah, and you will see another man whose mouth is open and he is not remembering Allah.
