Ubayy bin Kaab reported,

Naji reported that he had a storehouse of dates that kept decreasing, so one night he stood guard over it. Suddenly he saw a creature resembling a young man at the age of puberty. Naji greeted him with peace, and the creature returned the greeting.Naji asked, "Are you a jinn or a human?"He replied, "No, I am a jinn."Naji said, "Give me your hand."The creature extended his hand, and behold, his hand was like a dog's hand and his hair like a dog's hair.Naji remarked, "Is this how the jinn are created?"The creature replied, "The jinn know well that there is none among them stronger than me."Naji asked, "What has brought you here?"He answered, "We heard that you love giving charity, so we came to take some of your food."Naji asked, "What can protect us from you?"He said, "This verse in Surah al-Baqarah, 'Allah, there is no god but He, the Living, the Self-Sustaining' [Baqarah 2:255]. Whoever recites it when evening comes is protected from us until morning, and whoever recites it when morning comes is protected from us until evening."When morning came, Naji went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and told him what had happened. He said, "The wicked one has spoken the truth."

Sahih

عن أبي بن كعب

أنه كان له جرن من تمر، فكان ينقص، فحرسه ذات ليلة فإذا هو بدابة شبه الغلام المحتلم، فسلم عليه فرد عليه السلام فقال: ما أنت جني أم إنسي؟ قال: لا بل جني قال: فناولني يدك، فناوله يده، فإذا يده يد كلب، وشعره شعر كلب قال: هكذا خلق الجن قال: قد علمت الجن أن ما فيهم رجل أشد مني قال: فما جاء بك؟ قال: بلغنا أنك تحب الصدقة، فجئنا نصيب من طعامك قال: فما ينجينا منكم؟ قال: هذه الآية التي في سورة البقرة {الله لا إله إلا هو الحي القيوم} من قالها حين يمسي، أجير منا حتى يصبح، ومن قالها حين يصبح أجير منا حتى يمسي، فلما أصبح أتى رسول الله ﷺ فذكر له ذلك فقال: صدق الخبيث.
