Sub-Chapter (Baab)

Sahih Al Bukhari 304

(Imām Bukhārī narrates): Sa'id bin Abi Maryam narrated to us, he said: Muhammad bin Ja'far informed us, he said: Zaid, who is Zaid bin Aslam, informed me, from Iyad bin Abdullah, from Abi Sa'id Al-Khudri, he said that

the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ went out toward the Eid ground on Eid Al-Adha or Eid Al-Fitr. He passed by the women and said: O group of women! Give charity, because I have been shown that you are the majority of the people of the Fire. They said: O Messenger of Allāh! Why is that? He said: You curse frequently and are ungrateful to your husbands. I have not seen anyone more deficient in intelligence and religion than you, who can take away the intelligence of a cautious man. They said: O Messenger of Allāh! What is the deficiency in our religion and our intelligence? He said: Is it not that the testimony of a woman is equal to half the testimony of a man? They said: Why not! He said: This is the deficiency in the intelligence of women. Is it not that when a woman menstruates, she neither prays nor fasts? They said: Why not! He said: This is the deficiency in her religion.

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

قَالَ خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي أَضْحَى أَوْ فِطْرٍ إِلَى المُصَلَّى، فَمَرَّ عَلَى النِّسَاءِ، فَقَالَ: يَا مَعْشَرَ النِّسَاءِ تَصَدَّقْنَ فَإِنِّي أُرِيتُكُنَّ أَكْثَرَ أَهْلِ النَّارِ. فَقُلْنَ: وَبِمَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ؟ قَالَ: تُكْثِرْنَ اللَّعْنَ، وَتَكْفُرْنَ العَشِيرَ، مَا رَأَيْتُ مِنْ نَاقِصَاتِ عَقْلٍ وَدِينٍ أَذْهَبَ لِلُبِّ الرَّجُلِ الحَازِمِ مِنْ إِحْدَاكُنَّ. قُلْنَ: وَمَا نُقْصَانُ دِينِنَا وَعَقْلِنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ؟ قَالَ: أَلَيْسَ شَهَادَةُ المَرْأَةِ مِثْلَ نِصْفِ شَهَادَةِ الرَّجُلِ؟ قُلْنَ: بَلَى. قَالَ: فَذَلِكِ مِنْ نُقْصَانِ عَقْلِهَا. أَلَيْسَ إِذَا حَاضَتْ لَمْ تُصَلِّ وَلَمْ تَصُمْ؟ قُلْنَ: بَلَى. قَالَ: فَذَلِكِ مِنْ نُقْصَانِ دِينِهَا.
