Sahih Muslim 2018a (Book 36, Hadith 136) #12366
The Power of Mentioning Allah's Name

SUMMARY: Mentioning the name of Allah when entering a house and while eating food will prevent Satan from entering.

Jabir b. 'Abdullah reported Allah's Messenger as saying: When a person enters his house and mentions the name of Allah at the time of entering it and while eating the food, Satan says (addressing himself: You have no place to spend the night and no evening meal; but when he enters without mentioning the name of Allah, the Satan says: You have found a place to spend the night, and when he does not mention the name of Allah while eating food, he (the Satan) says: You have found a place to spend the night and evening meal.
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى الْعَنَزِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا الضَّحَّاكُ، - يَعْنِي أَبَا عَاصِمٍ - عَنِ ابْنِ، جُرَيْجٍ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ يَقُولُ ‏ "‏ إِذَا دَخَلَ الرَّجُلُ بَيْتَهُ فَذَكَرَ اللَّهَ عِنْدَ دُخُولِهِ وَعِنْدَ طَعَامِهِ قَالَ الشَّيْطَانُ لاَ مَبِيتَ لَكُمْ وَلاَ عَشَاءَ ‏.‏ وَإِذَا دَخَلَ فَلَمْ يَذْكُرِ اللَّهَ عِنْدَ دُخُولِهِ قَالَ الشَّيْطَانُ أَدْرَكْتُمُ الْمَبِيتَ ‏.‏ وَإِذَا لَمْ يَذْكُرِ اللَّهَ عِنْدَ طَعَامِهِ قَالَ أَدْرَكْتُمُ الْمَبِيتَ وَالْعَشَاءَ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the power of mentioning Allah's name when entering a house and while eating food. It was narrated by Jabir b. 'Abdullah, who reported that Prophet Muhammad said that when someone enters their home and mentions the name of Allah, Satan will be prevented from entering with them. Similarly, if someone mentions the name of Allah before they eat their food, then Satan will not be able to join them for dinner either. This hadith teaches us that we should always remember to mention the name of Allah in our daily lives as it can protect us from evil forces like Satan. It also reminds us to stay mindful and grateful for all that we have been blessed with in life such as our homes and meals which are gifts from God Himself!
