15 - Chapter: A Man Addressing His Wife with Divorce

3417 - Al-Husayn ibn Hurayth informed us, saying: Al-Walid ibn Muslim narrated to us, saying: Al-Awza'i narrated to us, saying: I asked al-Zuhri about the woman who sought refuge with the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him. He said: 'Urwah informed me, from 'A'ishah, that when the woman from Kilab came before the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, she said: "I seek refuge with Allah from you." The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "You have sought refuge with the Mighty. Go back to your family."(1)

= 'Abd al-Rahman ibn 'Abdullah ibn Mas'ud, from his father, with similar wording: "The Messenger of Allah cursed the one who consumes usury, the one who gives it, its two witnesses, and its scribe." Except for my first and third narrations of Ahmad, in which the wording is: "Allah cursed the one who consumes usury..."

Al-Bukhari (4886) and Muslim (2125) also reported via 'Alqamah, from Ibn Mas'ud, may Allah be pleased with him, who said: "Allah cursed the women who tattoo and those who have themselves tattooed, and those who pluck their eyebrows..."

Al-Bukhari also (4887) and Muslim (2125) reported via 'Alqamah, from Ibn Mas'ud, who said: "The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, cursed the woman who joins hair [with extensions]."

Muslim (1597) reported via 'Alqamah, from Ibn Mas'ud, who said: "The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, cursed the one who consumes usury and the one who gives it."

They both also reported (Bukhari: 5942, Muslim: 2122) from Asma' bint Abi Bakr, raised to the Prophet: "Allah cursed the woman who joins hair and the one who has it done."

The wording of this hadith has been reported from a number of the Companions in the Sahih collections and elsewhere.

It will also come with similar wording, in extended form, under number (5102), via al-Harith al-A'war, from Ibn Mas'ud.

Al-Sindi said: His statement: "al-washimah" — she is the one who performs tattooing, which is piercing the skin with a needle, then filling it with kohl or indigo, so its trace becomes blue or green. "Al-mustawshimah" — she is the one upon whom this is done. Thus al-Suyuti mentioned it, meaning she is consenting. "Al-wasilah" — she is the one who joins her hair with the hair of another person. "Al-mawsulah" — she is the one upon whom this is done with her consent. "The one who consumes usury" — meaning the one who takes usury, whether he eats it afterward or not; but since the primary purpose is eating, he expressed it as "the one who consumes it." "And the one who gives it" — meaning the one who pays it. "Al-muhill and al-muhallal lahu" — the first is from ihlaal, and the second from tahleel, and they have the same meaning.

(1) Its chain is authentic. Al-Awza'i: he is 'Abd al-Rahman ibn 'Amr. Al-Zuhri: he is Muhammad ibn Muslim ibn Shihab. 'Urwah: he is Ibn al-Zubayr. The hadith is in "Al-Sunan al-Kubra" under number (5580). =
