Describing the day as inauspicious and the ruling on attributing misfortune to days
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Some people say that the least of what befalls them on earth in these days. Some people say that describing what happens on a certain day.
The Shaykh:
happens.
The questioner:
Yes.
The Shaykh:
happens, and whoever has a hardship.
The questioner:
on a certain day, because it is the day of the people, that is not from the scope of the disease, if it is from the orbit of victory, as Allah the Exalted said regarding the days of goodness, but if it is from the orbit of the attribution of the sin, then this is the Prophet’s statement about it, or the delay in the scope of the disease, and I have not seen it in the Qur'an.
The Shaykh:
Yes, this is correct if the intention is to describe the day as a difficult day[Al-Muddaththir 74:9] [Al-Qamar 54:19] if the intention is to describe the day with this and it is not an attribution of what happens in it to it, then there is nothing wrong with it. The punishment of the day, a difficult day. A severe day, a hot day, a cold day, there is nothing wrong with it, this is a description of the day, it is not a condemnation of it, rather it is a description of it, yes.

That Day will be a difficult day
فَذَٰلِكَ يَوْمَئِذٍ يَوْمٌ عَسِيرٌon a day of continuous misfortune,
فِي يَوْمِ نَحْسٍ مُّسْتَمِرٍّ
