‘Do not make your homes like graveyards’

Is this Hadith authentic?

Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said:

“Don’t make your houses like graveyards, for the Shaytan flees from a house in which Surah al-Baqarah is read”

Answer

Imam Muslim (rahimahullah) has recorded this narration in his Sahih, on the authority of Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (radiyallahu ‘anhu).

The narration is therefore authentic.

(Sahih Muslim, Hadith: 780)
