"if there is ill omen" and it has been previously mentioned under number (799). In another wording: "if ill omen is in anything..." This is the correct version as I mentioned there and explained further at ḥadīth (993), where it discusses the ḥadīth "May Allāh curse the Jews who say: there is ill omen," so refer to it as it is important. A clear ḥadīth has come negating ill omen and affirming good fortune in the three mentioned things, which is consistent with the general ḥadīths that negate superstition, so refer to the ḥadīth indicated below under number (1930). The ḥadīths on superstition have been previously mentioned with various wordings and multiple benefits (numbers 777 and 780-789).

"Shaʿbān is between Rajab and Ramaḍān, and people are heedless of it. In it, the deeds of the servants are raised, so I love that my deeds are not raised except while I am fasting." It was narrated by al-Nasāʾī (1/322) and Abū Bakr Muḥammad ibn al-Ḥasan al-Muqriʾ al-Ḥiyārī (!) al-Ṭabarī al-ʿAbbād, in "al-Amālī" (3/2) from Thābit ibn Qays al-Ghifārī, who narrated to me from Abū Saʿīd al-Maqburī from Abū Hurayrah from Usāmah ibn Zayd (and al-Nasāʾī did not say: from Abū Hurayrah) and said: I said: O Messenger of Allāh, I see you fasting in a month in which I have not seen you fasting like you fast in it? He said: Which month? I said: Shaʿbān, he said: and he mentioned it. He said: I see you fasting on Mondays and Thursdays, do not abandon them? He said: "Indeed, the deeds of the servants..." the ḥadīth. I said: And this isnād is good, Thābit ibn Qays is truthful but makes mistakes as mentioned in "al-Taqrīb," and all other narrators are trustworthy.
