Silsilat al-Ahadith al-Sahihah

Abu Hassan says: Two men from the tribe of Banu Amir came to Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) and said: Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates this hadith from the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him): "The people of ignorance used to say: There is bad luck in the house, the woman, and the horse." Lady Aisha became angry and said: By the One who sent down the Furqan (Qur'an) upon Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)! The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) did not say such a thing. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The people of ignorance used to take bad omens from these things."
