Silsilat al-Ahadith al-Sahihah

Sayyiduna Abu Burdah (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I came to Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) and said: Mother! Narrate to me a hadith that you heard from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). She said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "A bird flies according to its destiny (it does not decide anyone's fate)." And he liked good omens.
