Abu Al-Malih رضى الله عنه reported: A man said, “I was riding on a mount behind the Prophet and it stumbled, so I said: May Satan perish!” Then he صلى الله عليه وسلم said, “Do not say: May Satan perish, for indeed if you say that he will swell up (with pride) until he is like a house, and he says: By my power! Rather, say: In the name of Allah, for indeed if you say that he will shrink until he is like a fly.”
[Sunan Abu Dawud, Book 41, Number 4982]
Book of Manners, Chapter: Do not say, “My filthy soul!”
عَنْ أَبِي الْمَلِيحِ عَنْ رَجُلٍ قَالَ كُنْتُ رَدِيفَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَعَثَرَتْ دَابَّةٌ فَقُلْتُ تَعِسَ الشَّيْطَانُ فَقَالَ لَا تَقُلْ تَعِسَ الشَّيْطَانُ فَإِنَّكَ إِذَا قُلْتَ ذَلِكَ تَعَاظَمَ حَتَّى يَكُونَ مِثْلَ الْبَيْتِ وَيَقُولُ بِقُوَّتِي وَلَكِنْ قُلْ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ فَإِنَّكَ إِذَا قُلْتَ ذَلِكَ تَصَاغَرَ حَتَّى يَكُونَ مِثْلَ الذُّبَابِ
