Hadith 21:471

Abu Usama narrated to us, from al-Jurayri, from Abu al-Ala, from Uthman ibn Abi al-As, that he came to the Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) and said: "O Messenger of Allah, indeed the devil has come between my prayer and my recitation." He said: "That is a devil called Khanzab. So when you sense him, spit to your left three times and seek refuge in Allah from his evil."

حدثنا أبو أسامة عن الجريري عن أبي العلاء عن عثمان بن أبي العاص أنه أتى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فقال يا رسول الله إن الشيطان حال بين صلاتي وقراءتي فقال ذاك شيطان يقال له خنزب فإذا حسست به فاتفل عن يسارك ثلاثا وتعوذ بالله من شره
