Alqama reported,

I asked Ibn Masud, "Did any of you accompany the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on the night of the jinn?"He replied, "None of us accompanied him, but we lost him one night. We said, 'He has been assassinated. He has been snatched away. What has happened to him?' We spent the worst night any people ever spent. When morning approached," or he said, "in the predawn hours, suddenly there he was, coming from the direction of Hira. We said, 'Messenger of Allah,' and they mentioned to him what they had been going through. He said, 'A summoner from the jinn came to me, so I went with him and recited the Quran to them.'"He continued, "Then he took us along and showed us their traces and the traces of their fires."Shaybi said, "They asked him for provision."Ibn Abu Zaida said, Amir said, "On that night they asked him for provision, and they were among the jinn of al-Jazirah. He said, 'Every bone over which the name of Allah has been mentioned will fall into your hands with more flesh on it than it ever had, and every piece of dung or droppings is fodder for your animals. So do not use them for cleaning yourselves, for they are the provision of your brothers among the jinn.'"

حدثنا إسماعيل أخبرنا داود وابن أبي زائدة المعنى قالا حدثنا داود عن الشعبي

عن علقمة قال

قلت لابن مسعود هل صحب رسول الله ﷺ ليلة الجن منكم أحد فقال ما صحبه منا أحد ولكنا قد فقدناه ذات ليلة فقلنا اغتيل استطير ما فعل قال فبتنا بشر ليلة بات بها قوم فلما كان في وجه الصبح أو قال في السحر إذا نحن به يجيء من قبل حراء فقلنا يا رسول الله فذكروا الذي كانوا فيه فقال إنه أتاني داعي الجن فأتيتهم فقرأت عليهم قال فانطلق بنا فأراني آثارهم وآثار نيرانهم قال وقال الشعبي سألوه الزاد قال ابن أبي زائدة قال عامر فسألوه ليلتئذ الزاد وكانوا من جن الجزيرة فقال كل عظم ذكر اسم الله عليه يقع في أيديكم أوفر ما كان عليه لحما وكل بعرة أو روثة علف لدوابكم فلا تستنجوا بهما فإنهما زاد إخوانكم من الجن
