The questioner : The questioner, Mukhtar from the Ashira district of Ta'if, says in this question: He mentions that, praise be to Allah, he was blessed with four children, and these children were all born on a Friday. Some people tell him that this is a sign from Allah (Mighty and Majestic). He says, I want to know what you say about this, may Allah guide you, and I hope for your guidance in this matter?
The Shaykh : He says, what? A sign?

The Shaykh : Yes, in any case, I do not know of any virtue in a child being born on a Friday, or on a Monday, or on any other day.
