وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَا مِنْ بَنِي آدَمَ مَوْلُودٌ إِلَّا يَمَسُّهُ الشَّيْطَانُ حِينَ يُولَدُ فَيَسْتَهِلُّ صَارِخًا مِنْ مَسِّ الشَّيْطَانِ غَيْرَ مَرْيَمَ وَابْنِهَا»
Abu Huraira reported God’s messenger as saying, “Except Mary and her son, no human being is born without the devil touching him, so that he raises his voice crying out because of the devil’s touch”
(Bukhari and Muslim.)

Chain Data Audit In Progress
Narrator-chain data on this hadith is being actively audited against canonical sources (sunnah.com, dorar.net). Some chains in our database may differ from the canonical isnad pending review. Treat the family tree below as a working analysis, not a definitive scholarly source.
About these grades Grades shown above reflect specific scholars' assessments of the chain of transmission (isnad). They do not judge the Prophet's words. In Sunni tradition, all Companions of the Prophet are held to be upright (al-Sahaba kulluhum 'udul); any weakness in a chain originates with a later transmitter or a break in the chain, not with the Companion.
