Majma al-Zawaid 8412 — What to say when one sees an evil omen

عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - :
" مَنْ رَدَّتْهُ الطِّيَرَةُ مِنْ حَاجَةٍ فَقَدْ أَشْرَكَ " . قَالُوا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، فَمَا كَفَّارَةُ ذَلِكَ ؟ قَالَ : " يَقُولُ أَحَدُهُمْ : اللَّهُمَّ لَا خَيْرَ إِلَّا خَيْرُكَ ، وَلَا طَيْرَ إِلَّا طَيْرُكَ ، وَلَا إِلَهَ غَيْرُكَ " .
رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَالطَّبَرَانِيُّ ، وَفِيهِ ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ ، وَحَدِيثُهُ حَسَنٌ ، وَفِيهِ ضَعْفٌ ، وَبَقِيَّةُ رِجَالِهِ ثِقَاتٌ .
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever is held back from a task by an evil omen has committed shirk." The people said: "O Messenger of Allah! What is its expiation?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "A person should say: 'O Allah, there is no good except the good You grant, there is no omen except what You decree, and there is no god besides You.'"
Imam Ahmad and Imam al-Tabarani recorded it. Its chain contains Ibn Lahi'ah, whose hadith is hasan (good), yet there is weakness in him. The rest of its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).
