Is it true that when one sleeps on one’s stomach then shaytan has coitus with him from behind?
Answer
I have not seen this in a Hadith.
However there are other Hadiths that prohibit sleeping in that posture and actually label it as:
a) Disliked by Allah.
(Sunan Abi Dawud, Hadith: 5001, Sunan Tirmidhi, Hadith: 2768 & Sunan Ibn Majah, Hadith: 3723)
b) The posture of the inmates of Jahannam.
(Sunan Ibn Majah, Hadith: 3724-3725)
And Allah Ta’ala Knows best,
