Hadith 6817

عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ السُّلَمِيِّ أَنَّهُ قَالَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: أَرَأَيْتَ أَشْيَاءَ كُنَّا نَفْعَلُهَا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ، كُنَّا نَتَطَيَّرُ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((ذَلِكَ شَيْءٌ تَجِدُهُ فِي نَفْسِكَ فَلَا يَصُدَّنَّكَ)). قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ! كُنَّا نَأْتِي الْكُهَّانَ، قَالَ: ((فَلَا تَأْتِ الْكُهَّانَ)).
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Muawiyah bin Hakam Sulami (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): What is your opinion about those matters which we used to do in the days of ignorance, for example, we used to take omens? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: This is a thing which you may feel in your heart, but it should not prevent you from your work. He said: O Messenger of Allah! We also used to go to soothsayers. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Do not go to soothsayers.
