Al-Lu'lu Wal-MarjanHadith Number 1310
حديث جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: إِذَا كَانَ جُنْحُ اللَّيْلِ، أَوْ أَمْسَيْتُمْ، فَكُفُّوا صِبْيَانَكُمْ، فَإِنَّ الشَّيَاطِينَ تَنْتَشِرُ حِينَئِذٍ، فَإِذَا ذَهَبَ سَاعَةٌ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ فَحُلُّوهُمْ وَأَغْلِقُوا الأَبْوَابَ وَاذْكرُوا اسْمَ اللهِ، فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ لَا يَفْتَحُ بَابًا مُغْلَقًا.
Jabir bin `Abdullah Narrated from:
Allâh's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "When night falls (or it is evening), keep your children close to you, for the devils spread out at that time. But when an hour of the night elapses you can let them free. Close the doors and mention the Name of Allâh, for Satan does not open a closed door." ( Sahih Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 523, Vol. 4 )
