khutba - A Warning against Belief in Bad Omens

His Eminence Sheikh Hussein ibn Abdul-Aziz al-Sheikh, may Allah preserve him, delivered the Friday khutbah entitled, “A Warning against Belief in Bad Omens”, in which he talked about the superstitious belief in bad omens, especially in the current month of Safar, stating that this was one of the customs of jahiliyyah (the pre-Islamic period of ignorance). He showed that this is a form of associating partners with Allah, citing evidence in support of that. He also mentioned what a Muslim should do in case he falls prey to such beliefs.
