Superstition of Tuesdays being a bad day

Q: My question is regarding the significance of Tuesdays. I was recently advised by someone that I should not sign transfer papers or important documents on a Tuesday and it is preferable to do it on a Jummah if possible. I have never heard anything regarding this before. Is there anything in the Hadith or Quraan about Tuesdays being a bad day or a day on which important activities should not be conducted?

A: There is no problem in signing any document on any day of the week. Don't become overwhelmed with superstitions and hearsay.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
