Sahih al-Bukhari 3431 (Book 60, Hadith 102) #3280
Protection from Satan at Birth

SUMMARY: Satan touches every newborn child except Mary and her son Jesus.

Narrated Sa'id bin Al-Musaiyab: Abu Huraira said, "I heard Allah's Messenger saying, 'There is none born among the off-spring of Adam, but Satan touches it. A child therefore, cries loudly at the time of birth because of the touch of Satan, except Mary and her child". Then Abu Huraira recited: "And I seek refuge with You for her and for her offspring from the outcast Satan" (3:36)
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْيَمَانِ، أَخْبَرَنَا شُعَيْبٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي سَعِيدُ بْنُ الْمُسَيَّبِ، قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ يَقُولُ ‏"‏ مَا مِنْ بَنِي آدَمَ مَوْلُودٌ إِلاَّ يَمَسُّهُ الشَّيْطَانُ حِينَ يُولَدُ، فَيَسْتَهِلُّ صَارِخًا مِنْ مَسِّ الشَّيْطَانِ، غَيْرَ مَرْيَمَ وَابْنِهَا ‏"‏‏.‏ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ ‏{‏وَإِنِّي أُعِيذُهَا بِكَ وَذُرِّيَّتَهَا مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ الرَّجِيمِ

QUICK LESSONS:
Seek refuge with Allah against evil forces ; Ask for protection ; Remember God's blessings ; Trust in God's power ; Be mindful of one’s actions ; Follow religious teachings .

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith explains that when a baby is born, it is touched by the devil, which is why they cry. However, this does not apply to the mother of Prophet Jesus, Mary and her son. The hadith also mentions a verse from the Quran in which Allah seeks refuge for them both from the outcast Satan. This shows us that even though we are all touched by evil at birth, Allah will protect us if we seek His help and guidance. We should always remember to ask Allah for protection against evil forces in our lives so that we can stay on the right path and be successful in this life and hereafter.
