أَتَى رَجُلٌ النَّبِيَّ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَشْكُو إِلَيْكَ مَا أَلْقَى مِنَ الْوَسْوَسَةِ فِي صَلَاتِي حَتَّى لَا أَدْرِي مَا صَلَّيْتُ مِنْ زِيَادَةٍ أَوْ نُقْصَانٍ فَقَالَ إِذَا دَخَلْتَ فِي صَلَاتِكَ فَاطْعُنْ فَخِذَكَ الْأَيْسَرَ بِإِصْبَعِكَ الْيُمْنَى الْمُسَبِّحَةِ ثُمَّ قُلْ. بِسْمِ اللَّهِ وَ بِاللَّهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ عَلَى اللَّهِ أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ السَّمِيعِ الْعَلِيمِ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ الرَّجِيمِ فَإِنَّكَ تَنْحَرُهُ وَ تَطْرُدُهُ
Translation
Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Al nowfaly, from Al Sakuny, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘A man came over to the Prophet<sup>saww</sup> and he said, ‘O Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup>! I complain to you of what I face from the uncertainty during my <span class="iTxt">Salāt</span> to the extent that I do not know what I prayed from an increase or decrease’. So he<sup>saww</sup> said: ‘When you enter into your <span class="iTxt">Salāt</span>, so stab your left thigh with your right forefinger, then say, ‘In the Name of Allah<sup>azwj</sup> and by Allah<sup>azwj</sup>. I rely upon Allah<sup>azwj</sup>. I seek Refuge with Allah<sup>azwj</sup>, the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing, from the Pelted Satan<sup>la</sup>’, So you would slaughter him<sup>la</sup> and repel him<sup>la</sup>’.
