Narrated from Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), she says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) told his wives something one night. One of the Mothers of the Believers said: O Messenger of Allah! It seems that this is a tale of Khurafa. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Do you know what Khurafa is? Khurafa was a man from the tribe of Udhra. The jinn had captured him during the time of ignorance. He remained among the jinn for a long time, then they released him among the people. He used to narrate strange things about the jinn to the people, and people called it the tale of Khurafa.
