The prohibition of looking at a shooting star
Majma al-Zawaid 13258 — The prohibition of looking at a shooting star
عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ - يَعْنِي ابْنَ سِيرِينَ - قَالَ : كُنَّا مَعَ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ عَلَى ظَهْرِ بَيْتِنَا ، فَرَأَى كَوْكَبًا انْقَضَّ ، فَنَظَرُوا إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ أَبُو قَتَادَةَ : إِنَّا قَدْ نُهِينَا أَنْ نُتْبِعَهُ أَبْصَارَنَا . رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَرِجَالُهُ رِجَالُ الصَّحِيحِ .
Muhammad bin Sirin narrates: We were with Sayyiduna Abu Qatadah (may Allah be pleased with him) on the roof of our house. He saw a star falling, and the people began to look at it. Sayyiduna Abu Qatadah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "We have been forbidden to let our eyes follow it."
Ahmad recorded it, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih.
