The reciter: And Abu Sa'id al-Ashaj narrated to me, saying: Waki' narrated to us, saying: Al-A'mash narrated to us from al-Musayyib ibn Rafi' from 'Amir ibn 'Ubadah, who said: 'Abdullah said:
The Shaytan assumes the form of a man and comes to a group of people, narrating to them a fabricated story. They then disperse, and one of them says: "I heard a man whose face I recognize, but I do not know his name, narrating..."
إنّ الشّيطان ليتمثّل في صورة الرّجل ، فيأتي القوم ، فيحدّثهم بالحديث من الكذب ، فيتفرّقون ، فيقول الرّجل منهم : سمعت رجلًا أعرف وجهه ، ولا أدري ما اسمه يحدّث
