4912 - وَ رُوِيَ عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ نَجِيحٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ اَلصَّادِقِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: تَذَاكَرُوا اَلشُّؤْمَ عِنْدَهُ فَقَالَ "اَلشُّؤْمُ فِي ثَلاَثَةٍ فِي اَلْمَرْأَةِ وَ اَلدَّابَّةِ وَ اَلدَّارِ فَأَمَّا شُؤْمُ اَلْمَرْأَةِ فَكَثْرَةُ مَهْرِهَا وَ عُقُوقُ زَوْجِهَا وَ أَمَّا اَلدَّابَّةُ فَسُوءُ خُلُقِهَا وَ مَنْعُهَا ظَهْرَهَا وَ أَمَّا اَلدَّارُ فَضِيقُ سَاحَتِهَا وَ شَرُّ جِيرَانِهَا وَ كَثْرَةُ عُيُوبِهَا".
Hadith.4912 - It is narrated from Khalid ibn Najeeh that Imam Abu Abdullah Al-Sadiq (as) said: They were discussing misfortune in his presence. Imam (as) said: "Misfortune lies in three things: in a woman, in a mount, and in a house. As for the misfortune of a woman, it is in her high dowry and her disobedience to her husband. As for the mount, it is in its bad temperament and its refusal to allow itself to be ridden. And as for the house, it is in its narrow space, its bad neighbors, and its many defects."
