Bad luck

Q: After my coming to my husband's house, his condition is getting bad. He got sick, he became bad looking, his father's business got hampered, his car is getting ruined from many parts. I cursed him many times that he should be destroyed. Is it because of this? Or I am just a bad luck? Because even before, once I went with him somewhere and everything was getting wrong. Should I leave him? Because I want him to be happy. What should I do ? This is not only my negative thinking. This is very clear that bad luck is after him right after our marriage. I can not take it anymore. Is there something like bad luck? Am I a bad luck? 

Will a person become a kaafir by jokingly saying "you can lie"

Q: I’d like to ask if the following constitutes kufr?

In the morning, I asked my brother that did you pray Fajr? He said yes. Then later in the morning he told me ‘ I only said yes to make you happy so you wouldn’t pester me’ Then I said ‘ you can’t lie (even for a joke)’ whereupon he said ‘why not?’

Did he commit kufr by saying jokingly ‘you can lie’? Then later he said he did actually pray Fajr but he ‘joked’ to me that he didn’t pray it.

Losing one's wedding ring

Q: I am a married Muslim woman. I have lost my ring which I got as a gift on my nikaah from my husband just like an engagement ring for which I am very upset but people around me told us that losing your nikaah ring isn't a good sign for married life.

I am very much tensed and I wish that this is just a rumor, nothing else. Please tell me about it in the light of islam.
