حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي زَيْدٌ هُوَ ابْنُ أَسْلَمَ عَنْ عِيَاضِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ

قَالَ خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي أَضْحًى أَوْ فِطْرٍ إِلَى الْمُصَلَّى، فَمَرَّ عَلَى النِّسَاءِ فَقَالَ: «يَا مَعْشَرَ النِّسَاءِ تَصَدَّقْنَ، فَإِنِّي أُرِيتُكُنَّ أَكْثَرَ أَهْلِ النَّارِ». فَقُلْنَ وَبِمَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ: «تُكْثِرْنَ اللَّعْنَ، وَتَكْفُرْنَ الْعَشِيرَ، مَا رَأَيْتُ مِنْ نَاقِصَاتِ عَقْلٍ وَدِينٍ أَذْهَبَ لِلُبِّ الرَّجُلِ الْحَازِمِ مِنْ إِحْدَاكُنَّ».

قُلْنَ وَمَا نُقْصَانُ دِينِنَا وَعَقْلِنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ: «أَلَيْسَ شَهَادَةُ الْمَرْأَةِ مِثْلَ نِصْفِ شَهَادَةِ الرَّجُلِ». قُلْنَ بَلَى.

قَالَ: «فَذَلِكَ مِنْ نُقْصَانِ عَقْلِهَا، أَلَيْسَ إِذَا حَاضَتْ لَمْ تُصَلِّ وَلَمْ تَصُمْ». قُلْنَ بَلَى. قَالَ: «فَذَلِكَ مِنْ نُقْصَانِ دِينِهَا»

Once the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) went out to the Musalla (to offer the prayer) of Id-al-Adha or Al-Fitr prayer. Then he passed by the women and said, “O women! Give alms, as I have seen that the majority of the dwellers of Hell-fire were you (women).”

They asked, “Why is it so, O Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam)?” He replied, “You curse frequently and are ungrateful to your husbands. I have not seen anyone more deficient in intelligence and religion than you. A cautious sensible man could be led astray by some of you.”

The women asked, “O Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam)! What is deficient in our intelligence and religion?” He said, “Is not the evidence of two women equal to the witness of one man?”

They replied in the affirmative. He said, “This is the deficiency in her intelligence. Isn’t it true that a woman can neither pray nor fast during her menses?” The women replied in the affirmative. He said, “This is the deficiency in her religion.”

আবূ সাঈদ খুদরী (রাঃ) থেকে বর্ণিতঃ একবার ঈদুল আযহা অথবা ঈদুল ফিতরের সালাত আদায়ের জন্য আল্লাহ্‌র রাসূল (সাল্লাল্লাহু ‘আলাইহি ওয়া সাল্লাম) ঈদগাহের দিকে যাচ্ছিলেন।

তিনি মহিলাদের পাশ দিয়ে যাওয়ার সময় বললেনঃ হে মহিলা সমাজ! তোমার সদাক্বাহ করতে থাক। কারণ আমি দেখেছি জাহান্নামের অধিবাসীদের মধ্যে তোমরাই অধিক। তাঁরা জিজ্ঞেস করলেনঃ কী কারণে, হে আল্লাহ্‌র রাসূল?

তিনি বললেনঃ তোমরা অধিক পরিমানে অভিশাপ দিয়ে থাক আর স্বামীর অকৃতজ্ঞ হও। বুদ্ধি ও দ্বীনের ব্যাপারে ত্রুটি থাকা সত্ত্বেও একজন সদাসতর্ক ব্যক্তির বুদ্ধি হরণে তোমাদের চেয়ে পারদর্শী আমি আর কাউকে দেখিনি।

তারা বললেনঃ আমাদের দ্বীন ও বুদ্ধির ত্রুটি কোথায়, হে আল্লাহ্‌র রাসূল? তিনি বললেনঃ একজন মহিলার সাক্ষ্য কি একজন পুরুষের সাক্ষ্যের অর্ধেক নয়? তারা উত্তর দিলেন, ‘হ্যাঁ’।

তখন তিনি বললেনঃ এ হচ্ছে তাদের বুদ্ধির ত্রুটি। আর হায়েয অবস্থায় তারা কি সালাত ও সিয়াম হতে বিরত থাকে না? তারা বললেন, হ্যাঁ। তিনি বললেনঃ এ হচ্ছে তাদের দ্বীনের ত্রুটি। (১৪৬২, ১৯৫১, ২৬৫৮; মুসলিম ১/৩৪, হাঃ ৭৯, ৮০ আহমাদ ৫৪৪৩)

ہم سے سعید بن ابی مریم نے بیان کیا، انہوں نے کہا ہم سے محمد بن جعفر نے بیان کیا، انہوں نے کہا مجھے زید نے اور یہ زید اسلم کے بیٹے ہیں، انہوں نے عیاض بن عبداللہ سے، انہوں نے ابو سعید خدری رضی اللہ عنہ سے کہ آپ نے فرمایا کہ رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم عید الاضحی یا عیدالفطر میں عیدگاہ تشریف لے گئے۔

وہاں آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم عورتوں کے پاس سے گزرے اور فرمایا اے عورتوں کی جماعت! صدقہ کرو، کیونکہ میں نے جہنم میں زیادہ تم ہی کو دیکھا ہے۔

انہوں نے کہا یا رسول اللہ! ایسا کیوں؟ آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا کہ تم لعن طعن بہت کرتی ہو اور شوہر کی ناشکری کرتی ہو، باوجود عقل اور دین میں ناقص ہونے کے میں نے تم سے زیادہ کسی کو بھی ایک عقلمند اور تجربہ کار آدمی کو دیوانہ بنا دینے والا نہیں دیکھا۔

عورتوں نے عرض کی کہ ہمارے دین اور ہماری عقل میں نقصان کیا ہے یا رسول اللہ؟ آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا کیا عورت کی گواہی مرد کی گواہی سے نصف نہیں ہے؟

انہوں نے کہا، جی ہے۔ آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا بس یہی اس کی عقل کا نقصان ہے۔ پھر آپ نے پوچھا کیا ایسا نہیں ہے کہ جب عورت حائضہ ہو تو نہ نماز پڑھ سکتی ہے نہ روزہ رکھ سکتی ہے، عورتوں نے کہا ایسا ہی ہے۔ آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا کہ یہی اس کے دین کا نقصان ہے۔

Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Sa'id bin Abu Maryam] berkata, telah mengabarkan kepada kami [Muhammad bin Ja'far] berkata, telah mengabarkan kepadaku [Zaid] -yaitu Ibnu Aslam- dari ['Iyadl bin 'Abdullah] dari [Abu Sa'id Al Khudri] ia berkata, "Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam pada hari raya 'Iedul Adlha atau Fitri keluar menuju tempat shalat, beliau melewati para wanita seraya bersabda: "Wahai para wanita!

Hendaklah kalian bersedekahlah, sebab diperlihatkan kepadaku bahwa kalian adalah yang paling banyak menghuni neraka." Kami bertanya, "Apa sebabnya wahai Rasulullah?"

beliau menjawab: "Kalian banyak melaknat dan banyak mengingkari pemberian suami. Dan aku tidak pernah melihat dari tulang laki-laki yang akalnya lebih cepat hilang dan lemah agamanya selain kalian."

Kami bertanya lagi, "Wahai Rasulullah, apa tanda dari kurangnya akal dan lemahnya agama?" Beliau menjawab: "Bukankah persaksian seorang wanita setengah dari persaksian laki-laki?" Kami jawab, "Benar."

Beliau berkata lagi: "Itulah kekurangan akalnya. Dan bukankah seorang wanita bila dia sedang haid dia tidak shalat dan puasa?" Kami jawab, "Benar." Beliau berkata: "Itulah kekurangan agamanya

Ebu Saîd el-Hudrî r.a.'den şöyle nakledilmiştir: "Nebi (Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem) kurban veya ramazan bayramı namazını kıldırmak üzere namazgaha yöneldi. Yolda kadınlara rastladı. Onlara: ‘‘£y kadınlar topluluğu sadaka verin! Zira cehennem ehlinin çoğunluğunun kadınlardan oluştuğu bana gösterildi' dedi. Kadınlar: ‘‘Neden ey Allah'ın elçisi?'

diye sordu. Nebi (Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem) de: 'Lanet eder ve kocalarınızın iyiliğine nankörlük yaparsınız. Kararlı ve basiretli bir adamın aklını sizden daha fazla çelen, dinî ve aklı bakımdan eksik birini görmedim.' diye cevap verdi. Bunun üzerine kadınlar: ‘‘Ey Allah'ın elçisi aklımızın ve dinimizin noksanlığı nedir?' diye sordular.

Nebi (Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem): 'Bir kadın'ın şahitliği erkeğin şahitliğinin yarısına denk değil midir?' diye sorunca, kadınlar Tabiî ki' dediler. Nebi Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem: 'İşte bu, onların akıllarının eksik olmasından ileri gelir.'

dedi. Sonra kadınlar hayız olduğu zaman, namaz kılmazlar, oruç tutmazlar, değil mi?' diye sordu. Kadınlar: 'Evet' deyince 'Bu da, onların dinî bakımdan eksik olduğundan ileri gelir.' buyurdu. Tekrar;1462, 1951, 2658. KUR’AN OKUYABİLİR Mİ? AÇIKLAMALARI AŞAĞIDA 7.BAB’DA

Sahih al-Bukhari 304, Book 6, Menstrual Periods, Hadith 9. 1 min read

What it means

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) went out to the praying area on the day of Eid. He had promised to give women a special sermon and he fulfilled his promise on that day.

He said: O womenfolk, give charity and seek Allah's forgiveness frequently, as both are among the greatest means of erasing sins, for indeed, I saw you on the Night of Isrā’ forming the majority of the inhabitants of Hellfire. Then a woman among them, who was wise, perceptive, and dignified, said: O Messenger of Allah, why do we form the majority of the inhabitants of Hellfire? He said: For some reasons: you frequently curse and use abusive language, and you deny your husbands' rights.

Then he (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) described them, saying: I have not seen anyone with a deficiency in intellect and religion who is more dominant over a person of wisdom, intellect, resolve, and self-control than you. She said: O Messenger of Allah, what is the deficiency in intellect and religion? He said: As for the deficiency of intellect, it is the fact that the testimony of two women is equivalent to the testimony of one man; this is what is meant by a deficiency in intellect.

The deficiency in religion is the decrease in good deeds, for a woman spends nights and days not praying due to menstruation and fasts fewer days in Ramadan due to menstruation; this is what is meant by a deficiency in religion. However, they are not to be blamed or held accountable for that because it is part of their natural disposition, just as humans are created with an innate love for wealth, haste in their matters, ignorance, and other such traits. However, this is mentioned as a warning against being infatuated with them.

What it teaches

  • It is recommended for women to attend the Eid prayer and to be given a separate sermon.
  • Ingratitude to the husband and frequent cursing are major sins because the threat of Hellfire is a sign that such sins are major.
  • It shows that faith can increase and decrease. One's faith and religion increase when he offers abundant acts of worship, and offering fewer acts of worship will lead to a decrease in one's religion.
  • An-Nawawi said: The intellect is subject to increase and decrease, and so is faith. Mentioning the deficiency in women is not meant to blame them for it, as it is part of their natural disposition. Rather, it is intended as a warning against being infatuated with them. This is why the punishment is associated with the mentioned ingratitude and other sins, not with the deficiency. The deficiency in religion is not restricted to what results in sin; rather, it includes a broader scope.
  • It implies that a learner or a subject may ask the scholar or leader to clarify his words if it is unclear to him.
  • It shows that the testimony of a woman is half that of a man given her lack of accuracy.
  • Ibn Hajar commented on his statement: "I have not seen anyone deficient..." It appears to me that this is one of the reasons why they form the majority of the inhabitants of Hellfire; because if they are a cause for a sensible man to lose his reason to the extent that he does or says what is inappropriate, then they share in the sin and even exceed him in it.
  • Prayer and fasting are prohibited for a woman during her menstruation, and the same applies to one experiencing post-partum bleeding, and both must make up for the missed days of fasting upon attaining purity.
  • The Prophet's good morals, as he answered the women's questions without rebuke or blame.
  • Ibn Hajar said: Charity repels punishment and it may expiate sins committed between people.
  • An-Nawawi said: The deficiency in women's religion is due to their abandonment of prayer and fasting during their menstruation. One's faith and religion increase when he offers abundant acts of worship, and offering fewer acts of worship will lead to a decrease in one's religion. Moreover, the deficiency in religion could occur in a way that incurs sin, such as abandoning prayer, fasting, or any other obligatory act of worship without a valid excuse; and it could occur in a way that incurs no sin, such as abandoning the Friday prayer, fighting in Allah's cause, or any other act that is not obligatory upon him without a valid excuse; or it could occur in a way that one is actually commanded to do, such as abandoning of a menstruating woman's prayer and fasting.
