The Meanings of Reports · Hadith 215 (#Ḥadīth #1)

حدثني محمد بن علي ماجيلويه - رحمه الله - قال: حدثني محمد بن يحيى العطار، قال: حدثني سهل بن زياد، قال: حدثني عثمان بن عيسى، عن خالد بن نجيح، عن أبي عبد الله عليه السلام قال: تذاكرنا الشؤم عنده، قال: الشؤم في ثلاثة: في المرأة، والدابة، والدار. فأما شؤم المرأة فكثرة مهرها وعقوق زوجها، وأما الدابة فسوء خلقها ومنعها ظهرها، وأما الدار فضيق ساحتها وشر جيرانها وكثرة عيوبها.

1. I was told by Muhammed bin Ali Majilawayh, may Allah grant him mercy, that he said: I was told by Muhammed bin Yahya al-‘Attar, that he said: I was told by Sahl bin Ziyad, that he said: I was told by Uthman bin Isa, from Khalid bin Nujayh, from Abu Abdillah, peace be upon him, that he said: We mentioned ill-omen at his place. He said: Ill-omen is in three: in a woman, a riding animal and a home. As for the ill-omen of a woman, it is her large amount of dowry and her disobedience to her husband. As for a riding animal, it is its ill manners and its prevention of its back. As for a home, it is its tight space, evil of its neighbors and amounts of defects.
