Asalam o alaikum Brother Abid and all,

Every day is a good day and blessed day. Seek help from Allah SWT and do not fall for this good day or bad day as there is no room for superstition in Islam. We believe that everything is up to the will of Allah SWT only and the glorious Quran is full of evidence to support it.

Sincerely,
