Hadith #491

عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ الْخَزَّازِ قَالَ أَرَدْنَا أَنْ نَخْرُجَ فَجِئْنَا نُسَلِّمُ عَلَى أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عليه السلام) فَقَالَ كَأَنَّكُمْ طَلَبْتُمْ بَرَكَةَ الْإِثْنَيْنِ فَقُلْنَا نَعَمْ فَقَالَ وَ أَيُّ يَوْمٍ أَعْظَمُ شُؤْماً مِنْ يَوْمِ الْإِثْنَيْنِ يَوْمٍ فَقَدْنَا فِيهِ نَبِيَّنَا وَ ارْتَفَعَ الْوَحْيُ عَنَّا لَا تَخْرُجُوا وَ اخْرُجُوا يَوْمَ الثَّلَاثَاءِ.

491. A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Khalid, from Usman Bin Isa, from Abu Ayyub Al-Khazaz who said: We intended to go out, so we went to greet Abu Abdullah (asws). So he (asws) said: ‘It is as if you all are seeking blessings for Monday’. So we said, ‘Yes’. So he (asws) said: ‘So which day is greater in evil than the day of Monday, the day in which our Prophet (saww) departed, and the Revelation was Raised (stopped) from us (asws). Do not go out, and go out on the day of Wednesday’.
