327. When the mounted animal (or mean of transport) stumbles

Abu al-Malih (RA) reported on the authority of a man: I was riding on a mount behind the prophet (ﷺ) It stumbled. Thereupon I said: May the devil perish! He said: do not say; may the devil perish! For you say that, he will swell so much so that he will be like a house, and say: by my power. But say: (The dua is mentioned above)

Translation

With the Name of Allah.

Abu al-Malih (RA) reported on the authority of a man : I was riding on a mount behind the prophet (ﷺ). It stumbled. Thereupon I said: May the devil perish! He said: do not say; may the devil perish! For you say that, he will swell so much so that he will be like a house, and say: by my power. But say: (The dua is mentioned above) For when you say that, he will diminish so much so that he will be like a fly.
