حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ مَرْزُوقٍ أَخْبَرَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ النَّضِرِ بْنِ أَنَسٍ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَرْقَمَعَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ إِنَّ هَذِهِ الْحُشُوشَ مُحْتَضَرَةٌ فَإِذَا أَتَى أَحَدُكُمْ الْخَلَاءَ فَلْيَقُلْ أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْ الْخُبُثِ وَالْخَبَائِثِ

Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Amru bin Marzuq] telah mengabarkan kepada kami [Syu'bah] dari [Qatadah] dari [an Nadhr bin Anas] dari [Zaid bin Arqam] dari Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam, beliau bersabda: "Sesungguhnya tempat buang hajat itu dihadiri oleh setan-setan, maka apabila salah seorang dari kalian mendatangi WC, hendaklah dia mengucapkan; 'Aku berlindung kepada Allah dari setan jantan dan setan betina'."
