4. Abu Bakr ibn ‘Ubayd narrated: Hisham ibn al-Qasim told us, Hisham ibn ‘Ammar told us, ‘Abd al-‘Aziz ibn al-Walid ibn Abi al-Sa’ib al-Qurashi told us, from his father, from Yazid ibn Jabir, who said:

“There is no Muslim household without Muslim jinn residing on the roof of their house. When the family sets out their midday meal, the jinn come down and eat with them; and when they put out their evening meal, the jinn come down and dine with them. Through those jinn Allah wards harm off from the household.”
