حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى ، حَدَّثَنَا عَوُفٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَيَّانُ ، قَالَ غَيْر مُسَدَّدٍ ، حَيَانُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ ، حَدَّثَنَا قَطَنُ بْنُ قَبِيصَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، يَقُولُ : " الْعِيَافَةُ وَالطِّيَرَةُ وَالطَّرْقُ مِنَ الْجِبْتِ " ، الطَّرْقُ : الزَّجْرُ ، وَالْعِيَافَةُ : الْخَطُّ .
Narrated Qabisah: I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: Augury from the flight of birds, taking evil omens and the practice of pressomancy pertain to divination. Tarq: It is used in the sense of divination in which women threw stones. 'Iyafah: It means geomancy by drawing lines.
Explanation & Benefits
Shaykh Umar Farooq Saeedi
Benefits and Issues:
The meaning of (ṭiyarah) is to take omens or bad omens from the sounds of birds or from seeing anything that is liked or disliked.
And it is evident that in the Shari‘ah, there is no basis for these practices.
