Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودٌ، حَدَّثَنَا شَبَابَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَنَّهُ صَلَّى صَلاَةً قَالَ ‏"‏ إِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ عَرَضَ لِي، فَشَدَّ عَلَىَّ لِيَقْطَعَ الصَّلاَةَ عَلَىَّ، فَأَمْكَنَنِي اللَّهُ مِنْهُ، فَذَعَتُّهُ، وَلَقَدْ هَمَمْتُ أَنْ أُوثِقَهُ إِلَى سَارِيَةٍ حَتَّى تُصْبِحُوا فَتَنْظُرُوا إِلَيْهِ فَذَكَرْتُ قَوْلَ سُلَيْمَانَ ـ عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ ـ رَبِّ هَبْ لِي مُلْكًا لاَ يَنْبَغِي لأَحَدٍ مِنْ بَعْدِي‏.‏ فَرَدَّهُ اللَّهُ خَاسِيًا ‏" ‏‏.‏ ثُمَّ قَالَ النَّضْرُ بْنُ شُمَيْلٍ فَذَعَتُّهُ بِالذَّالِ أَىْ خَنَقْتُهُ وَفَدَعَّتُّهُ مِنْ قَوْلِ اللَّهِ ‏‏{‏يَوْمَ يُدَعُّونَ‏}‏ أَىْ يُدْفَعُونَ وَالصَّوَابُ، فَدَعَتُّهُ إِلاَّ أَنَّهُ كَذَا قَالَ بِتَشْدِيدِ الْعَيْنِ وَالتَّاءِ‏.‏

Translation

Mahmud narrated to us; Shababah narrated to us; Shu'bah narrated to us, from Muhammad ibn Ziyad, from Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him), from the Prophet (ﷺ): He prayed and said, ‘Satan confronted me and rushed at me to interrupt my prayer, but Allah gave me power over him, and I seized him. I had nearly tied him to a pillar so that you might awaken in the morning and see him. Then I remembered Solomon's words (peace be upon him): “My Lord, grant me a kingdom that will not befit anyone after me.” So Allah sent him away humiliated.’

Then al-Nadr ibn Shumayl said: ‘Fa-dha'attuhu,’ with dhāl, means ‘I choked him.’ As for ‘fa-da'attuhu,’ it comes from Allah's words, “the day they are pushed,” meaning driven; the correct form is ‘fa-da'attuhu,’ although he pronounced it with a doubled 'ayn and tā'.
