Arabic hadith text

وَعَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «إِن الشَّيْطَان قد أيس أَنْ يَعْبُدَهُ الْمُصَلُّونَ فِي جَزِيرَةِ الْعَرَبِ وَلَكِنَّ فِي التحريش بَينهم» . رَوَاهُ مُسلم

Translation

Jabir reported: I heard the Prophet say, “Satan has despaired of being worshipped by those who pray in the Arabian Peninsula, but he still seeks to stir discord among them.” Muslim transmitted it.
