حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلاَءِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، عَنْ بُرَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى ـ رضى الله عنه ـ قَالَ احْتَرَقَ بَيْتٌ بِالْمَدِينَةِ عَلَى أَهْلِهِ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ، فَحُدِّثَ بِشَأْنِهِمُ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏"‏ إِنَّ هَذِهِ النَّارَ إِنَّمَا هِيَ عَدُوٌّ لَكُمْ، فَإِذَا نِمْتُمْ فَأَطْفِئُوهَا عَنْكُمْ ‏"‏‏.‏

Translation

Muhammad ibn al-Ala narrated to us: Abu Usamah narrated to us, from Burayd ibn Abdullah, from Abu Burdah, from Abu Musa, may Allah be pleased with him, who said: A house in Medina burned at night while its occupants were inside. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, was told about them and said, ‘This fire is an enemy to you. When you go to sleep, extinguish it.’
