Urwa reported from 'A'isha that she said that people asked Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) about the kahins. Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) said to them: It is nothing (i. e. it is a mere superstition). They said: Allah's Messenger, they at times narrate to us things which we find true. Thereupon Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) said: That is a word pertaining to truth which a jinn snatches away and then cackles into the ear of his friend as the hen does. And then they mix in it more than one hundred lies.
حَدَّثَنِي سَلَمَةُ بْنُ شَبِيبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ أَعْيَنَ، حَدَّثَنَا مَعْقِلٌ وَهُوَ ابْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، أَخْبَرَنِي يَحْيَى بْنُ عُرْوَةَ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عُرْوَةَ، يَقُولُ: قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ: سَأَلَ أُنَاسٌ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنِ الْكُهَّانِ؟ فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَيْسُوا بِشَيْءٍ» قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَإِنَّهُمْ يُحَدِّثُونَ أَحْيَانًا الشَّيْءَ يَكُونُ حَقًّا، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «تِلْكَ الْكَلِمَةُ مِنَ الْجِنِّ يَخْطَفُهَا الْجِنِّيُّ، فَيَقُرُّهَا فِي أُذُنِ وَلِيِّهِ قَرَّ الدَّجَاجَةِ، فَيَخْلِطُونَ فِيهَا أَكْثَرَ مِنْ مِائَةِ كَذْبَةٍ»
  معقل بن عبید اللہ نے زہری سے روایت کی ، کہا : مجھے یحییٰ بن عروہ نے بتا یا کہ انھوں نے عروہ سے سنا ، وہ کہہ رہے تھے کہ حضرت عائشہ رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہا نے کہا : لو گوں نے رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم سے کا ہنوں کے متعلق سوال کیا تو رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فر مایا : "" وہ کچھ نہیں ہیں ۔ "" صحابہ کرام رضوان اللہ عنھم اجمعین نے عرض کی : اللہ کے رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم !وہ لو گ بعض اوقات ایسی چیز بتاتے ہیں جو سچ نکلتی ہے ۔ رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فر ما یا : وہ جنوں کی بات ہو تی ہے ، ایک جن اسے ( آسمان کے نیچے سے ) اچک لیتا تھا پھر وہ اسے اپنے دوست ( کا ہن ) کے کان میں مرغی کی کٹ کٹ کی طرح کٹکٹاتا رہتا ہے ۔ اور وہ اس ( ایک ) بات میں سو زیادہ جھوٹ ملا دیتا ہے ۔ ""

sahih-muslim-5819

Abdullah. Ibn 'Abbas reported: A person from the Ansar who was amongst the Companions of Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) reported to me: As we were sitting during the night with Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ), a meteor shot gave a dazzling light. Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) said: What did you say in the pre-Islamic days when there was such a shot (of meteor)? They said: Allah and His Messenger know best (the actual position), but we, however, used to say that that very night a great man had been born and a great man had died, whereupon Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) said: (These meteors) are shot neither at the death of anyone nor on the birth of anyone. Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, issues Command when He decides to do a thing. Then (the Angels) supporting the Throne sing His glory, then sing the dwellers of heaven who are near to them until this glory of God reaches them who are in the heaven of this world. Then those who are near the supporters of the Throne ask these supporters of the Throne: What your Lord has said? And they accordingly inform them what He says. Then the dwellers of heaven seek information from them until this information reaches the heaven of the world. In this process of transmission (the jinn snatches) what he manages to overhear and he carries it to his friends. And when the Angels see the jinn they attack them with meteors. If they narrate only which they manage to snatch that is correct but they alloy it with lies and make additions to it.
