Sahih Muslim #5653

The Book of Greetings
Sahih

The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.

وَحَدَّثَنِي حَجَّاجُ بْنُ الشَّاعِرِ، حَدَّثَنِي مُعَلَّى بْنُ أَسَدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ مُخْتَارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ عَتِيقٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سِيرِينَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ "‏ لاَ عَدْوَى وَلاَ طِيَرَةَ وَأُحِبُّ الْفَأْلَ الصَّالِحَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏
There is no transitive disease, no divination, but I like good words.
Narrated by Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying:

Context

In this hadith, the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ addresses the misconceptions surrounding diseases and superstitions. He emphasizes that there is no such thing as transitive disease or divination, which reflects the importance of relying on faith and positive thinking. The takeaway is to cultivate a mindset that favors optimism and good words, rather than succumbing to fear or superstition.

Modern Application

In today's world, this principle encourages individuals to focus on positive affirmations and constructive thoughts. Instead of succumbing to fears about illness or bad luck, people can foster a supportive environment that promotes well-being and resilience through uplifting language and actions.
