وَقَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ بْنِ أَبِي عَلْقَمَةَ، عَنْ أُمِّهِ أُمِّ عَلْقَمَةَ مَوْلَاةِ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ:
أَتَيْتُ عَائِشَةَ بِغُلَامٍ صَبِيٍّ تَدْعُو لَهُ، فَرَفَعُوا وِسَادَةً كَانَ عَلَيْهَا الصَّبِيُّ، فَرَأَتْ عَائِشَةُ ؓ تَحْتَهَا مُوسَى، فَقَالَتْ: مَا هَذِهِ ؟ قَالَ: نَجْعَلُهَا مِنَ الْجِنِّ وَالْفَزَعِ، قَالَ: فَأَخَذَتْهَا عَائِشَةُ ؓ فَرَمَتْ بِهَا، وَقَالَتْ: إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يُبْغِضُ الطِّيَرَةَ وَيَكْرَهُهَا

✧ I brought a young boy to 'A'ishah so that she might supplicate for him. They lifted a pillow on which the boy was, and 'A'ishah ؓ saw a razor beneath it. She said, "What is this?" He said, "We place it as protection from the jinn and fright." He said, "So 'A'ishah ؓ took it and threw it away, saying, 'The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to hate superstition and dislike it.'"
