He had an alcove in his house, and a ghoul would come and take from it. So he complained about her to the Prophet ﷺ, who said, "When you see her, say, 'In the name of Allah, answer the Messenger of Allah.'"He said, "She came, and I said that to her, and I seized her."She said to him, "I will never come back again."So he let her go. Then he came to the Prophet ﷺ, who asked him, "What became of your captive?"He replied, "I seized her, and she told me she would never come back, so I released her."The Prophet ﷺ said, "She will come back."He seized her twice more, or three times, and each time she said, "I will not come back," and each time he would come to the Prophet ﷺ, who would ask, "What became of your captive?"He would answer, "I seized her, and she said she would not come back."And the Prophet ﷺ would say, "She will come back."Then he seized her again, and she said, "Let me go, and I will teach you something to say, and then nothing will come near you. The Verse of the Throne."So he went to the Prophet ﷺ and told him, and he said, "She spoke the truth, though she is a liar."
