The Ruling on Taking a Good Omen from Places and Clothing

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, regarding taking a good omen from certain places, or taking a good omen from certain clothing or certain cars, is it permissible for a person to follow that?

Answer:
Yes, a good omen is sought after. A good omen is having a good opinion of Allah. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) liked a good omen because it is a relaxation and a good opinion of Allah the Exalted, and it is a hope for good. What is forbidden is taking a bad omen; that is what is forbidden. Yes. May Allah reward you.
