It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Close the doors, tie the mouths of the water skins, cover the vessels, and extinguish the lamps, because Satan neither opens a closed door, nor unties the string of a water skin, nor removes the cover of a vessel, and due to fire, a sinful animal, that is, a mouse, sets fire to the house of the people.
