3906. It was narrated from Zaid bin Khālid Al-Juhanī that he said: “The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ led us in praying Subh (Fajr) at Al-Hudaibiyah, after it had rained at night. When he finished, he turned to the people and said: ‘Do you know what your Lord said?’ They said: ‘Allāh and His Messenger know best.’ He said: ‘He said: “This morning some of My slaves believe in Me and some disbelieve. As for the one who said, ‘We got rain by the bounty and mercy of Allāh,’ he is a believer in Me and a disbeliever in the stars. But as for the one who said, ‘We got rain by virtue of such and such a star, he is a disbeliever in Me and a believer in the stars.’” (Sahih)

Commentary
Believing that stars or planets have some control over the outcome of one's life is Shirk. Every event, incident and happening, takes place according to the
Will of Allāh; stars and planetary bodies have no influence upon that.
