with a napkin until he licks his hand, for a person does not know in which part of the food Allāh has placed the blessing. Indeed, Satan lies in wait for people—or a person—in all matters, even at their meal or food, and do not lift the dish until he licks it or has it licked, for the blessing is in the last part of the food." It was recorded by Ibn Ḥibbān (1343) and al-Bayhaqī in "Shuʿab al-Īmān" (2/187/2) through two chains from Ibn Jurayj, who said: Abū al-Zubayr informed me from Jābir—and al-Bayhaqī said: that he heard Jābir ibn ʿAbd Allāh narrate—that he heard the Prophet (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) say: and he mentioned it. Ibn Lahīʿah corroborated him, narrating from Abū al-Zubayr from Jābir with it. It was recorded by Aḥmad (3/394). The ḥadīth is in "Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim" (6/114) through the route of Sufyān ibn ʿUyaynah from Abū al-Zubayr from Jābir with it, except for the statement: "Indeed, Satan lies in wait..." For this reason, I deliberately recorded it from the route of Ibn Ḥibbān and al-Bayhaqī, and because in the second of their narrations, Abū al-Zubayr explicitly stated the narration, thus connecting the isnād and removing the suspicion of ʿanʿanah present in the narration of "Muslim." Moreover, this has been strengthened by the narration of the ḥadīth through the route of al-Aʿmash from Abū Sufyān from Jābir with a similar version. (Yarṣud) means he watches. It is mentioned in "al-Miṣbāḥ": "al-Raṣd: the path, and the plural is (Arṣād) like: sabab and asbāb. I watched him raṣdan, from the category of killing: I sat for him on the path, and the doer is a rāṣid, and it may be pluralized as (raṣad) like khādim and khadam. And (al-Raṣīdī) is attributed to al-raṣd, which is one who sits on the path waiting for people to take something from their wealth unjustly and aggressively." I say: It is truly unfortunate to see many Muslims today, especially those influenced by Western customs and European traditions, have allowed Satan to take a portion of their wealth not by aggression but by their own choice, and this is only due to their ignorance of the sunnah, or
