٣١٥٢١ - حدثنا وكيع عن أسامة بن زيد عن نافع بن جبير قال: قال: كعب لعبد اللَّه بن (عمرو) (١): هل تطير؟ قال: نعم قال: فما تقول؟ قال: أقول: اللهم لا طير إلا طيرك، ولا خير إلا خيرك، ولا رب غيرك، قال: أنت أفقه العرب (٢).
Hazrat Nafi’ bin Jubair narrates that Hazrat Ka’b asked Hazrat Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with him): “Do you take bad omens?” He replied: “Yes!” He asked: “What supplication do you recite?” Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) replied: “O Allah! There is no bad omen except from You, and there is no goodness except from You, and there is no sustainer except You.” Upon this, Hazrat Ka’b said: “You are the greatest jurist among the Arabs.”
