Sahih al-Bukhari 3303 (Book 59, Hadith 111) #3158
Seeking Blessings and Refuge from Rooster and Donkey Sounds

SUMMARY: The Prophet (ﷺ) taught us to ask for Allah's blessings when we hear the crowing of roosters and seek refuge with Allah from Satan when we hear the braying of donkeys.

Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet said, "When you hear the crowing of roosters, ask for Allah's Blessings for (their crowing indicates that) they have seen an angel. And when you hear the braying of donkeys, seek Refuge with Allah from Satan for (their braying indicates) that they have seen a Satan".
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ، عَنِ الأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ قَالَ ‏ "‏ إِذَا سَمِعْتُمْ صِيَاحَ الدِّيَكَةِ فَاسْأَلُوا اللَّهَ مِنْ فَضْلِهِ، فَإِنَّهَا رَأَتْ مَلَكًا، وَإِذَا سَمِعْتُمْ نَهِيقَ الْحِمَارِ فَتَعَوَّذُوا بِاللَّهِ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ، فَإِنَّهُ رَأَى شَيْطَانًا

QUICK LESSONS:
Ask for blessings when you hear the crowing sound of a rooster

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith teaches us that whenever we hear the crowing of a rooster, it is a sign that an angel is nearby. We should take this opportunity to ask for blessings from God. On the other hand, if we hear a donkey braying, it is an indication that a devil or satan is near. We should then seek refuge in God to protect ourselves against any harm or evil intentions by this devil. This hadith reminds us to be mindful and aware of our surroundings so that we can take advantage of opportunities for blessings as well as protect ourselves against any potential danger or harm.
