Hadith 6814

عَنْ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَتْ: سَأَلَ نَاسٌ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنِ الْكُهَّانِ، فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((لَيْسُوا بِشَيْءٍ)) فَقَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ! إِنَّهُمْ يُحَدِّثُونَ أَحْيَانًا بِشَيْءٍ يَكُونُ حَقًّا، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((تِلْكَ الْكَلِمَةُ مِنَ الْحَقِّ يَخْطِفُهَا الْجِنِّيُّ فَيُقِرُّهَا فِي أُذُنِ وَلِيِّهِ قَرَّ الدَّجَاجَةِ فَيَخْلِطُونَ فِيهَا مِائَةَ كَذْبَةٍ))
It is narrated from the wife of the Prophet, Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), that people asked the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) about soothsayers. He (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) said to them: They have no reality. They said: O Messenger of Allah! Sometimes they say something that turns out to be true. He (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) said: That is a true word which a jinn snatches, then he cackles it into the ear of his friend like a hen does, and they mix a hundred lies with it.
