عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: ((شُعْبَتَانِ مِنْ أَمْرِ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ لَا يَتْرُكُهُمَا النَّاسُ أَبَدًا: النِّيَاحَةُ وَالطَّعْنُ فِي النَّسَبِ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: There are two practices from the era of ignorance which people will never abandon: wailing over the dead and casting aspersions on lineage.
Hadith 3059
عَنْ أَبِي مَالِكٍ الْأَشْعَرِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((أَرْبَعٌ مِنَ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ لَا يُتْرَكْنَ، الْفَخْرُ فِي الْأَحْسَابِ، وَالطَّعْنُ فِي الْأَنْسَابِ، وَالِاسْتِسْقَاءُ بِالنُّجُومِ، وَالنِّيَاحَةُ، وَالنَّائِحَةُ إِذَا لَمْ تَتُبْ قَبْلَ مَوْتِهَا تَقُومُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَعَلَيْهَا سِرْبَالٌ مِنْ قَطِرَانٍ أَوْ دِرْعٌ مِنْ جَرَبٍ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Malik Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: There are four matters of ignorance, but they will not be abandoned: boasting about lineage, slandering ancestry, seeking rain through the stars, and wailing. If a wailing woman does not repent before her death, she will be raised on the Day of Resurrection in such a state that she will be wearing a garment of tar or scabies.
Hadith 3060
(وَعَنْهُ مِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَانٍ) أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: ((إِنَّ فِي أُمَّتِي أَرْبَعًا مِنَ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ لَيْسُوا بِتَارِكِيهِنَّ: الْفَخْرُ بِالْأَحْسَابِ، وَالطَّعْنُ فِي الْأَنْسَابِ، وَالِاسْتِسْقَاءُ بِالنُّجُومِ، وَالنِّيَاحَةُ عَلَى الْمَيِّتِ، فَإِنَّ النَّائِحَةَ إِنْ لَمْ تَتُبْ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَمُوتَ فَإِنَّهَا تَقُومُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ عَلَيْهَا سَرَابِيلُ مِنْ قَطِرَانٍ، ثُمَّ يُعْلَى عَلَيْهَا دِرْعٌ مِنْ لَهَبِ النَّارِ))
(Second chain) The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: There are four practices of ignorance in my Ummah which they will not abandon: boasting about lineage, defaming ancestry, seeking rain through the stars, and wailing over the dead. He also said: If a wailing woman does not repent before her death, then on the Day of Resurrection she will be made to stand in such a way that she will be wearing garments of tar, and over them a shirt of flames will be put on her.
