Sulayman ibn Surad said, "Two men Abu sed one another in the presence of the Prophet (ﷺ) and one of them began to get angry and his face got red. The Prophet (ﷺ) looked at him and said, 'I know some words that, if he says them, will remove this from him. They are: "I seek refuge with Allah from the Accursed Shaytan."' The man went to that man and said, 'Do you know what he said? He said, "I seek refuge with Allah from the Accursed Shaytan."' The man retorted. 'Do you think me mad?'"
