Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ جَابِرًا أَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الطِّيَرَةِ وَالْعَدْوَى شَيْئًا قَالَ جَابِرٌ سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ كُلُّ عَبْدٍ طَائِرُهُ فِي عُنُقِهِ.
English Translation
Musa told us, Ibn Lahi'ah told us, from Abu al-Zubayr, who said: I asked Jabir, "Did the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, say anything about omens and contagion?" Jabir said: I heard him say, "Every servant's bird of fate is fastened around his neck."
