بَابُ الرَّجُلِ يَقُولُ: لَيْسَ بِشَيْءٍ، وَهُوَ يُرِيدُ أَنَّهُ لَيْسَ بِحَقٍّChapter: Saying "It Is Nothing" Meaning "It Is Not True"
Hadith 882
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَنْبَسَةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي يَحْيَى بْنُ عُرْوَةَ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عُرْوَةَ بْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ يَقُولُ: قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ زَوْجُ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: سَأَلَ نَاسٌ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنِ الْكُهَّانِ، فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: ”لَيْسُوا بِشَيْءٍ“، فَقَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، فَإِنَّهُمْ يُحَدِّثُونَ بِالشَّيْءِ يَكُونُ حَقًّا؟ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ”تِلْكَ الْكَلِمَةُ مِنَ الْحَقِّ يَخْطَفُهَا الشَّيْطَانُ، فَيُقَرْقِرُهُ بِأُذُنَيْ وَلِيِّهِ كَقَرْقَرَةِ الدَّجَاجَةِ، فَيَخْلِطُونَ فِيهَا بِأَكْثَرَ مِنْ مِئَةِ كِذْبَةٍ.“
It is narrated from Umm al-Mu'minin Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that some people asked the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) about soothsayers. He (peace be upon him) said: "They are nothing, and they have no reality." The people said: O Messenger of Allah! They sometimes say something that turns out to be true. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "That true statement is a word which the devil snatches (from the conversation of the angels), and he whispers it into the ears of his friends as a hen clucks, then the soothsayer mixes with it more than a hundred lies."
