THE TEN SINFUL WOMEN

THE SIN | The Ten Sinful Women:

La`n (لعن: curse) means: expelling and driving someone away from the Mercy of Allah. (The Sin)

Islam is the only religion that uplifts the status of women.

The following are the ten sinful women or those women who are accursed or who will be removed from the mercy of Allah تعالى:

1. Tattooing

The one who does it and the one who gets it done.

2. Plucking the eyebrows:

The doers and the one who gets it done.

3. Artificially creating space between the teeth to look beautiful. (The Sin)

The doers and the one who gets it done.

Narrated Abdullaah (Ibn Masood) رضي الله عنه : Allah (subhana wa taala) has cursed those women who practice tattooing and those who get themselves tattooed, and those who remove their face hairs, and those who create a space between their teeth artificially to look beautiful, and such women as change the features created by Allah (subhana wa taala). Why then should I not curse those whom the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) has cursed? And that is in Allah’s Book. i.e. His تعالى saying: {And what the Apostle gives you take it and what he forbids you abstain (from it).}
[Surah al-Hashr (59):7]
[Saheeh al-Bukhaaree (4886, 5931, 5939, 5943, 5948) and Saheeh Muslim (5301) and there are more Ahaadeeth from Ibn `Umar and Abu Hurairah رضي الله عنهم]

4. Adding false hair: the provider of false hair and the one who gets it done:

Narrated Ibn Umar and Abu Hurairah رضي الله عنهم: The Prophet (ﷺ) has cursed the lady who lengthens her hair artificially and the one who gets her hair lengthened, and also the lady who tattoos (others) and the one who gets herself tattooed.
[Saheeh al-Bukhaaree (5933, 5934, 5937, 5940, 5942, 5947,) and Saheeh Muslim (5298, 5300) and also reported on the authority of Aaishah رضي الله عنها]

5. The woman whose husband is angry at her. (The Sin)

Narrated Abu Hurairah رضي الله عنها: The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) said: “If a woman spends the night deserting her husband’s bed (does not sleep with him), then the angels send their curses on her till she comes back (to her husband).”
[Saheeh al-Bukhaaree (3237, 5193, 5194) and Saheeh Muslim (3366, 3368)]

6. Those women who imitate men:

Narrated Ibn `Abbaas رضي الله عنهما: Allaah’s Messenger (ﷺ) cursed those men who are in the similitude (assume the manners) of women and those women who are in the similitude (assume the manners) of men.
[Saheeh al-Bukhaaree (5885)]

7. Those women who visit the graves:

It was narrated that Abu Hurairah and Hassaan bin Thaabit رضي الله عنهما said: “The Messenger of Allaah (ﷺ) cursed women who visit graves.”
[Sunan al-Tirmidhee (1056) and Sunan Ibn Maajah (1574, 1575, 1576) and graded as “Hasan” (good) by Shaikh al-Albaanee]

8. Women who wail at the death of someone. (The Sin)

Narrated Abu Saeed al-Khudree رضي الله عنه: “The Messenger of Allaah (ﷺ) cursed the wailing woman and the woman who listens to her.”
[Sunan Abu Dawood (3128) and graded as “Dhaeef” (weak) by Shaikh al-Albaanee]

It was narrated from Abu Umamah رضي الله عنه: “The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) cursed the woman who scratches her face and rends her garment and cries that she is doomed (i.e. because of the death of this person).”
[Sunan Ibn Maajah (1585) and graded as “Saheeh” by Shaikh al-Albaanee]

It was narrated from Abu Maalik Ash`aree رضي الله عنه that the Messenger of Allaah (ﷺ) said: “Wailing is one of the affairs of the Days of Ignorance, and if the woman who wails dies without having repented, Allah will cut a garment of pitch (tar) for her and a shirt of flaming fire.”
[Saheeh Muslim (2033)]

9. Muhallil and Muhallilal lahu, (as for the woman who agrees to it will be sinful):

Reported from Alee, IbnAbbaas, Ibn Mas`ood رضي الله عنهم that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “Curse be upon the Muhallil (the man who marries a divorced woman with the intention of making her lawful for her former husband) and upon the Muhallil lahu (the man for whom she is being made lawful).”
[Sunan Ibn Maajah (1934, 1935, 1936), Sunan Abu Dawood (2076), Sunan al-Tirmidhee (1119, 1120) and Sunan al-Nasaa’ee (3416) and graded as “Saheeh” by Shaikh al-Albaanee]

10. Dressed but naked. (The Sin)

Abu Hurairah رضي الله عنه reported Allaah’s Messenger (ﷺ) having said: “Two are the types of the denizens of Hell whom I did not see: people having flogs like the tails of the ox with them and they would be beating people, and the women who would be dressed but appear to be naked, who would be inclined (to evil) and make their husbands incline towards it. Their heads would be like the humps of the bukht camel inclined to one side. They will not enter Paradise and they would not smell its fragrance whereas its fragrance would be smelt from such and such distance.”
[Saheeh Muslim (5310)]

Remember O sisters! This is a fleeting world, but the everlasting life is of the Hereafter.

So do not chase that which is temporary at the expense of the permanent bliss.

O sisters! Be dutiful to your Lord and be obedient to your husbands and protect yourselves from the Fire by doing charitable acts and by seeking much forgiveness.

The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) said: “O women! Give alms and seek much forgiveness, for I have seen that the majority of the dwellers of Hell-Fire were you (women).”
[Saheeh al-Bukhaaree (304, 1462) and Saheeh Muslim (142) and the wordings are his]
