Sunan Ibn Majah 1993 (Book 9, Hadith 149) #31345
Good Fortune in Three Things

SUMMARY: Do not believe in superstitions and good fortune can be found in three things: a woman, a horse and a house.

It was narrated from Hakim bin Mu'awiyah that his paternal uncle Mikhmar bin Mu'awiyah said: "I heard the Messenger of Allah say: 'Do not believe in omens, and good fortune is only to be found in three things: A woman, a horse and a house"'.
حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ عَيَّاشٍ، حَدَّثَنِي سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ سُلَيْمٍ الْكَلْبِيُّ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ جَابِرٍ، عَنْ حَكِيمِ بْنِ مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنْ عَمِّهِ، مِخْمَرِ بْنِ مُعَاوِيَةَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ـ ـ يَقُولُ ‏ "‏ لاَ شُؤْمَ وَقَدْ يَكُونُ الْيُمْنُ فِي ثَلاَثَةٍ فِي الْمَرْأَةِ وَالْفَرَسِ وَالدَّارِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the importance of not believing in superstitions or omens. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ taught that good fortune can only be found in three things - a woman, a horse and a house. A woman is important because she brings children into the world, which are blessings from Allah SWT. A horse is important because it helps people travel to far away places for trade or other purposes. And finally, having your own home provides security and stability for you and your family. These three things are blessings from Allah SWT that should be appreciated and taken advantage of when possible.
