حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ وَحَجَّاجٌ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ وَمَنْصُورٍ عَنْ ذَرٍّ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ شَدَّادٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَنَّهُمْ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّا نُحَدِّثُ أَنْفُسَنَا بِالشَّيْءِ لَأَنْ يَكُونَ أَحَدُنَا حُمَمَةً أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ أَنْ يَتَكَلَّمَ بِهِ قَالَ فَقَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي لَمْ يَقْدِرْ مِنْكُمْ إِلَّا عَلَى الْوَسْوَسَةِ وَقَالَ الْآخَرُ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي رَدَّ أَمْرَهُ إِلَى الْوَسْوَسَةِ

مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 3161

It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbas (RA) that they said: O Messenger of Allah, things cross our minds that we would rather be turned to charcoal than speak of it. He said (according to one of the narrators); "Praise be to Allah Who did not give the Shaitan any power over you except whispering." (According to the other narrator he said): "Praise be to Allah Who has reduced the guile of the Shaitan to mere whispering."
