Question:
What is the opinion of the reliable scholars regarding the hadith:
but if there is anything (that may be a source of trouble) then it could be a house, a horse, and a womanإن كان الشُّؤم ففي ثلاثة
Riyad as-Salihin 1675
? And is there a contradiction with what is narrated that he said to the people of a house:
Leave her, for she is wretchedذروها فإنها ذميمة
?

Answer:
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Bad omen is in three things: in the mount, the woman, and the houseالشؤم في ثلاثة: في الدابة، والمرأة، والمنزل
. Bad omen may be in the house, it may occur in the woman, it may be in the mount. So if he sees that the house is not suitable, or the mount is not suitable, or the woman is not suitable, there is no harm in divorcing her. This becomes clear from the condition of the mount, the condition of the house, and the condition of the woman. The Prophet stated definitively, saying:
Bad omens are in three thingsالشؤم في ثلاثة
.
