Jami' at-Tirmidhi — Hadith #27970

Qutaibah narrated to us, on the authority of Malik ibn Anas, on the authority of Abu al-Zubayr, on the authority of Jabir, who said: The Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said, “Close the door and lean on the water-skins.” And cover the vessel, or cover the vessel, and extinguish the lamp, for Satan does not open anything, nor loose a cover, nor reveal it. And indeed, the ravages set fire to the people’s houses.” He said, and on the authority of Ibn Umar, Abu Hurairah, and Ibn Abbas. Abu Issa said. This is a hasan and authentic hadith, and it was narrated through more than one authority, on the authority of Jabir.
