 Rh bless us by this milk, and give us more than it,' for verily there is nothing which suffices in place of both food and drink except milk."'—At Tirmidhí, Abú Dáud.

It is related from ʿÁyesha that she said, 'We used to make an infusion of grapes for the Apostle of God in a leathern bag, which was tied at the top and had a hole at the bottom. And we made the infusion of grapes in the morning, and he used to drink it in the evening. And we used to make the infusion in the evening, and he would drink it in the morning.'—Muslim.

It is related from Abú Málikuʾl-Ashʿari that he heard the Apostle of God say, 'Some people of my followers will certainly drink wine, calling it by a name not its own.'—Abú Dáud, Ibn Májah.

It is related from Jábir that, 'The Apostle of God said, "When night falls, or ye reach the evening, then prevent your children (from going out); for verily Satan at that time spreads himself about. And when one hour of the night has passed, then let them go. And shut the doors, and mention the name of God, for verily Satan does not open a door which is shut (in the name of God). And tie the mouths of your leathern bags, and mention the name of God; and cover over your vessels, and mention the name of God, even though ye put something upon them; and extinguish your lamps."'—Muslim, Al Bukhárí.

It is related from Jábir that he said, 'I heard the Prophet say, "When ye hear the bark of dogs, or the braying of asses at night, then take refuge with God from Satan the stoned; for verily they see what ye do not see. Therefore go out little when ye have to go on foot, for verily God the Exalted and Magnified spreads abroad certain of His creation at night such as He wishes. Therefore shut the doors, and mention the name of God over them; for verily Satan does not open a door when it is shut and the name of God has been mentioned over it. And immerse your water-jars in water, and turn your vessels upside down and tie the mouths of your leathern bags."'—Sharḥu's-Sunnah.
