Answer :
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh. There is no basis for any bad omens in Islam. Rasoolullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam) said: عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «… لاَ طِيَرَةَ، وَلاَ هَامَةَ وَلاَ صَفَرَ» صحيح البخاري (7/ 135) Translation: Abu Hurairah (Radiyallahu Anh) narrates that the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam) said: ... (There is) no bad omen , nor is there any Haamah (bad omen from owls), nor is there any bad omen in the month of Safar.
