✦ *How to be protected with the devil who intervenes between the prayer*

---

✦ Uthman bin Abu al-As reported that he came to Rasool-Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam and said Ya Rasool-Allah Sallallahu Alaihi wasallam,  the Satan intervenes between me and my prayer and my reciting of the Qur'an and he makes me confuse Thereupon Rasool-Allah Sallallahu Alaihi wasallam said That is (the doing of a) Shaitan (devil) who is known as Khinzab, and when you perceive its effect, seek refuge with Allah from it and spit three times to your left. I did that and Allah dispelled that from me.
