Arabic hadith text
حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ مَرْزُوقٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنِ النَّضْرِ بْنِ أَنَسٍ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَرْقَمَ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " إِنَّ هَذِهِ الْحُشُوشَ مُحْتَضَرَةٌ فَإِذَا أَتَى أَحَدُكُمُ الْخَلاَءَ فَلْيَقُلْ أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنَ الْخُبُثِ وَالْخَبَائِثِ " .
Translation
Amr ibn Marzuq narrated to us; Shu'bah informed us, from Qatadah, from al-Nadr ibn Anas, from Zayd ibn Arqam, from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), who said: ‘These privies are frequented. When one of you comes to the privy, let him say: I seek refuge in Allah from the male and female devils.’
