حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ شُعَيْبِ بْنِ اللَّيْثِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ جَدِّي، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عُقَيْلُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، قَالَ قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ أَخْبَرَنِي عُرْوَةُ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ، أَنَّ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏‏ يَأْتِي الْعَبْدَ الشَّيْطَانُ فَيَقُولُ مَنْ خَلَقَ كَذَا وَكَذَا ‏"‏ مِثْلَ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ أَخِي ابْنِ شِهَابٍ ‏‏
This hadith is transmitted by Urwa b. Zubair on the authority of Abu Huraira (and the words are):
The Satan comes to the bondsman (of Allah) and says: Who created this and that? The remaining part of the hadith is the same.
