Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ الْحَنَفِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا الضَّحَّاكُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ عَنْ سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّ أَحَدَكُمْ إِذَا كَانَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ جَاءَهُ 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 اللَّهَ وَأَمَّا الْمَلْجُومُ فَفَاتِحٌ فَاهُ لَا يَذْكُرُ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ.
English Translation
The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: "When one of you is in the mosque, Satan comes to him and distracts him as a man distracts his riding animal. When he calms down, Satan bridles or reins him." Abu Hurayrah said: "You see this yourselves - as for the one who is reined, you see him tilting like this, not remembering Allah. As for the one who is bridled, his mouth hangs open, not remembering Allah, the Mighty and Sublime."
