Bad luck and misfortune in Islam
Question
Some friend of mine told me about three things which has an effect on a persons life.
1. House/land.
2. Wife
3. Horse/vehicle
These three things can affect the owner in his personal development. It may prosper his life or it may downgrade him or no development. Does it really have any effect of such in life in the light of Islam and Deen?
Answer
There is no such a thing as ill luck and misfortune. It is possible that the wife will be bad tempered or the vehicle etc. is not performing as desired or the home or the place where one is living, the weather conditions of that place are not suitable.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
