493. From him, from Bakr Bin Salih, from Suleyman Al-Ja’fary, who has narrated: Abu Al-Hassan Musa (asws) having said, ‘
The evil, for the traveller in his road, are five things – The cawing crow on his right and spreading its tail; and the howling wolf which howls on the face of the man while sitting on it’s tail and raises its voice and lowers it three times; and the deer which crossing from the right to the left, and the crying owl, and an old woman coming in from the front, and confronting a female (astray) donkey. So the one who feels anything from these for himself, so he should immediately say, ‘I adhere to You (azwj), O Lord (azwj), from the evil of what I find in (front of) myself’. He (asws) said; ‘He would be protected from that’.
عَنْهُ عَنْ بَكْرِ بْنِ صَالِحٍ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ الْجَعْفَرِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ مُوسَى (عليه السلام) قَالَ
الشُّؤْمُ لِلْمُسَافِرِ فِي طَرِيقِهِ خَمْسَةُ أَشْيَاءَ الْغُرَابُ النَّاعِقُ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَ النَّاشِرُ لِذَنَبِهِ وَ الذِّئْبُ الْعَاوِي الَّذِي يَعْوِي فِي وَجْهِ الرَّجُلِ وَ هُوَ مُقْعٍ عَلَى ذَنَبِهِ يَعْوِي ثُمَّ يَرْتَفِعُ ثُمَّ يَنْخَفِضُ ثَلَاثاً وَ الظَّبْيُ السَّانِحُ مِنْ يَمِينٍ إِلَى شِمَالٍ وَ الْبُومَةُ الصَّارِخَةُ وَ الْمَرْأَةُ الشَّمْطَاءُ تِلْقَاءَ فَرْجِهَا وَ الْأَتَانُ الْعَضْبَاءُ يَعْنِي الْجَدْعَاءَ فَمَنْ أَوْجَسَ فِي نَفْسِهِ مِنْهُنَّ شَيْئاً فَلْيَقُلْ اعْتَصَمْتُ بِكَ يَا رَبِّ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا أَجِدُ فِي نَفْسِي قَالَ فَيُعْصَمُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ.
