Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated: I heard the Prophet (ﷺ) say: "When you hear the barking of dogs or the braying of donkeys at night, seek refuge with Allah from the accursed devil, for they see what you do not see. Reduce going out when the streets are quiet, for Allah, the Mighty and Exalted, releases in His night whatever of His creation He wills. Lock the doors and mention the name of Allah upon them, for the devil does not open a door that is locked and upon which the name of Allah is mentioned. Cover the jars, turn over the vessels, and tie the waterskins." [Narrated in Sharh as-Sunnah]
Ahmad, Bukhari in his Tarikh, Abu Dawud, Ibn Hibban in his Sahih, and Al-Hakim in his Mustadrak narrated a similar report from him.
