Interpretation Of A Hadith Required
Sahih al-Bukhari 5623
Narrated Jabir bin `Abdullah:
Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “When night falls (or when it is evening), stop your children from going out, for the devils spread out at that time. But when an hour of the night has passed, release them and close the doors and mention Allah’s Name, for Satan does not open a closed door. Tie the mouth of your waterskin and mention Allah’s Name; cover your containers and utensils and mention Allah’s Name. Cover them even by placing something across it, and extinguish your lamps.” (sunnah.com)Could you please explain the purpose behind this hadith? Stopping children from going out because of spreading devils, closing the doors, covering utensils and waterskins, and extinguishing lamps at night? What does that mean? If a devil can enter Jannah, it can be everywhere regardless of the time or place or closed doors. Isn’t it?

It this is a prophetic diction to instruct the preemptive measure for safety. Satan is an adjective which is used for both Jinns and humans. Satan is the one who is mischievious.
