Muhammad bin Qais (may Allah have mercy on him) says that someone asked Hazrat Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him), "Have you heard the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) say that bad omen is found in three things: in a house, in a horse, and in a woman?" He replied, "If I answer in the affirmative, I would be attributing to the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) something he did not say. However, I did hear the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) say that the truest omen is a good omen, and the evil eye is real."
