I heard the Prophet ﷺ saying. "Evil omen is in three things: The horse, the woman and the house."

Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "There is neither 'Adwa (no contagious disease is conveyed to others without Allah's permission) nor Tiyara, but an evil omen may be in three a woman, a house or an animal."  

البخاري:٥٧٥٣حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عُمَرَ حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ سَالِمٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ ؓ

Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "there is neither 'Adwa nor Tiyara, and an evil omen is only in three: a horse, a woman and a house."  

البخاري:٥٧٧٢حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عُفَيْرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ وَهْبٍ عَنْ يُونُسَ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي سَالِمُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ وَحَمْزَةُ أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ ؓ قَالَ

There is no transitive disease, no ill omen, and bad luck is lound in the house, or wife or horse. Note: The majority of scholars interpret this to mean that these things in and of themselves do not transmit or cause harm through supernatural or hidden means but that Allah is ultimately in control and any fearful superstition around these is false.
