وَحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ الْجُرَيْرِيِّ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الشِّخِّيرِ، عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ أَبِي الْعَاصِ الثَّقَفِيِّ، قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ . ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ بِمِثْلِ حَدِيثِهِمْ .

Summary of Sahih Muslim Hadith 2203c
This hadith is another transmission of the Khinzab report from Uthman b. Abu al-'As. The text says he came to Allah's Messenger (صلى الله عليه وسلم) and then mentions the same meaning as the other narrations, with a slight variation of wording. Because the narration itself is brief, the explanation should stay close to the reported content. The core topic is still prayer distraction, Satan's interference, and seeking refuge with Allah when this happens. It is not a new ruling about all kinds of thoughts. It is a preserved route for the same event. People searching for Sahih Muslim 2203c, Khinzab in salah, or Satan interrupts prayer hadith are looking at a supporting narration that strengthens the same practical teaching.
What we learn from this hadith
- This is a supporting transmission of the Khinzab report.
- The wording varies slightly, but the main meaning is the same.
- The topic remains Satan interfering with prayer and recitation.
- The report points back to seeking refuge with Allah when the effect is felt.
