عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ ذَكَرَ الدُّنْيَا فَقَالَ إِنَّ الدُّنْيَا خَضِرَةٌ حُلْوَةٌ فَاتَّقُوهَا وَاتَّقُوا النِّسَاءَ ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ نِسْوَةً ثَلَاثًا مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ امْرَأَتَيْنِ طَوِيلَتَيْنِ تُعْرَفَانِ وَامْرَأَةٌ قَصِيرَةٌ لَا تُعْرَفُ فَاتَّخَذَتْ رِجْلَيْنِ مِنْ خَشَبٍ وَصَاغَتْ خَاتَمًا فَحَشَتْهُ مِنْ أَطْيَبِ الطِّيبِ الْمِسْكِ وَجَعَلَتْ لَهُ غَلَقًا فَإِذَا مَرَّتْ بِالْمَلَإِ أَوِ الْمَجْلِسِ قَالَتْ بِهِ فَفَتَحَتْهُ فَفَاحَ رِيحُهُ قَالَ الْمُسْتَمِرُّ بِخِنْصَرِهِ الْيُسْرَى فَأَشْخَصَهَا دُونَ أَصَابِعِهِ الثَّلَاثِ شَيْئًا وَقَبَضَ الثَّلَاثَةَ
Syedna Abu Saeed Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) mentioned the world and said: Indeed, the world is lush and sweet (attractive), so beware of it and beware of women as well. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) mentioned that among the Children of Israel there were three women; two were recognized because of their tall stature, and one was not recognized because of her short stature. So she had wooden sandals made and had a ring made, in which she filled the best fragrance, musk, and had a lid made for it. Then, whenever she passed by a gathering, she would open the lid, and the fragrance would spread. The continuous narrator said that the ring would be on her left little finger, so she would tilt it towards the other three fingers and close the remaining three.
Hadith 10044
عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ شِبْلٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّ الْفُسَّاقَ هُمْ أَهْلُ النَّارِ قِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَمَنِ الْفُسَّاقُ قَالَ النِّسَاءُ وَقَالَ رَجُلٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَوَلَسْنَ أُمَّهَاتِنَا وَأَخَوَاتِنَا وَأَزْوَاجَنَا قَالَ بَلَى وَلَكِنَّهُنَّ إِذَا أُعْطِينَ لَمْ يَشْكُرْنَ وَإِذَا ابْتُلِينَ لَمْ يَصْبِرْنَ
Narrated from Sayyiduna Abdur Rahman bin Shibl (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Surely, the sinful people are the inhabitants of Hell. Someone asked: O Messenger of Allah! Who are the sinful people? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Women. A man asked: O Messenger of Allah! Are they not our mothers, sisters, and wives? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Why not, but when they are given (something), they do not show gratitude, and when they are tested, they do not show patience.
Hadith 10045
عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ رَأَيْتُ النَّارَ فَلَمْ أَرَ كَالْيَوْمِ مَنْظَرًا قَطُّ وَرَأَيْتُ أَكْثَرَ أَهْلِهَا النِّسَاءَ قَالُوا لِمَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ بِكُفْرِهِنَّ قِيلَ أَيَكْفُرْنَ بِاللَّهِ قَالَ يَكْفُرْنَ الْعَشِيرَ وَيَكْفُرْنَ الْإِحْسَانَ لَوْ أَحْسَنْتَ إِلَى إِحْدَاهُنَّ الدَّهْرَ ثُمَّ رَأَتْ مِنْكَ شَيْئًا قَالَتْ مَا رَأَيْتُ مِنْكَ خَيْرًا قَطُّ
Narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both), the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: I saw Hell, and I have never seen a scene more severe than today. The majority of its inhabitants were women. The people asked: O Messenger of Allah! Why is that? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Because of their ingratitude. Someone asked: Do they disbelieve in Allah? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: They are ungrateful to their husbands and ungrateful for favors. If you were to do good to one of them for a lifetime, but then she saw something in you (she disliked), she would say: I have never seen any good from you.
Hadith 10046
عَنْ عُمَارَةَ بْنِ خُزَيْمَةَ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ كُنَّا مَعَ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ فِي حَجٍّ حَتَّى إِذَا كُنَّا بِمَرِّ الظَّهْرَانِ فَإِذَا امْرَأَةٌ فِي هَوْدَجِهَا (وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ فَإِذَا امْرَأَةٌ فِي يَدَيْهَا حَبَائِرُهَا وَخَوَاتِيمُهَا) قَدْ وَضَعَتْ يَدَيْهَا عَلَى هَوْدَجِهَا قَالَ فَمَالَ فَدَخَلَ الشِّعْبَ فَدَخَلْنَا مَعَهُ فَقَالَ كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي هَذَا الْمَكَانِ فَإِذَا نَحْنُ بِغِرْبَانٍ كَثِيرَةٍ فِيهَا غُرَابٌ أَعْصَمُ أَحْمَرُ الْمِنْقَارِ وَالرِّجْلَيْنِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَا يَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ مِنَ النِّسَاءِ إِلَّا مِثْلُ هَذَا الْغُرَابِ فِي هَذِهِ الْغِرْبَانِ
‘Amarah bin Khuzaymah says: We were with Sayyiduna ‘Amr bin al-‘As (may Allah be pleased with him) on the journey of Hajj. When we reached the place of Marr az-Zahran, we saw a woman in her howdah. In another narration: A lady’s hands were adorned and she was wearing rings, and she had placed her hands on the howdah. Then Sayyiduna ‘Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) turned aside and entered a ravine, so we also entered with him. Then he said: We were at this place with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). Suddenly, we saw a great number of crows, among them was a crow with a red beak and red feet. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Women will not enter Paradise except as few as the crow with a red beak and red feet.

عَنْ أَبِي التَّيَّاحِ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ مُطَرِّفًا يُحَدِّثُ أَنَّهُ كَانَتْ لَهُ امْرَأَتَانِ قَالَ فَجَاءَ إِلَى إِحْدَاهُمَا قَالَ فَجَعَلَتْ تَنْزِعُ بِهِ عِمَامَتَهُ وَقَالَتْ جِئْتَ مِنْ عِنْدِ امْرَأَتِكَ قَالَ جِئْتُ مِنْ عِنْدِ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ فَحَدَّثَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَحْسِبُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ إِنَّ أَقَلَّ سَاكِنِي الْجَنَّةِ النِّسَاءُ
Abu Tiyah narrates that Mutarrif had two wives. When he went to one wife and she removed his turban, she said: "You have come from your (other) wife." He replied: "I have come from Sayyiduna Imran bin Husain (may Allah be pleased with him). He narrated a hadith of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). I think that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Among the inhabitants of Paradise, women will be fewer in number."
