Hadith Takhrij«إسناده صحيح ، وأخرجه البخاري : 5093، ومسلم : 2225 ، و أبو داود : 3922 ، و ترمذي : 2824، والنسائي : 3599، وابن ماجه : 1995»
Brief Explanation
Explanation: ① In the era of the Noble Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and in the periods before him, the basis of general corruption and fighting in the world has been three important things: ➊ house, that is, land to live on; ➋ woman; ➌ horse, meaning cavalry forces. Therefore, here, this is what is meant by "misfortune" (nahusat). However, this hadith is abrogated due to other authentic ahadith. The Noble Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said: "If there were misfortune in anything, it would be in the house, the woman, and the horse." [صحيح بخاري : 5094 صحيح مسلم : 2225] The Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said: "There is no misfortune or bad omen." [صحيح بخاري : 5754 صحيح مسلم : 2223] Also see [فتح الباری : 63, 60/6تحت ح 2858 2859] and [التمهيد 9/ 290] And he said: « ثم نسخ ذلك و أبطله القرآن والسنن» "Then this was abrogated, and the Qur'an and Sunnah have declared it invalid." ② In the narration of Muwatta Imam Malik in which it is mentioned that the number and wealth of the inhabitants of a house decreased, so the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said: "Leave it, it is blameworthy." [972/2 ح 1884] Its chain is weak due to being disconnected (munqati‘). In Sunan Abi Dawud (3924) there is a supporting narration, but its chain is weak due to the tadlis of ‘Ikrimah ibn ‘Ammar, who is a mudallis. ③ In one narration, it is mentioned that Sayyidah Aisha radi Allahu anha refuted Abu Hurairah radi Allahu anhu for narrating a hadith similar to that of Ibn Umar radi Allahu anhu; its chain is weak due to Qatadah being a mudallis. Due to another chain, it is disconnected (munqati‘). [الاتحاف الباسم : ص 140 ، 141]
