Hadith 1377

1377 صحيح حديث عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ: لَعَنَ اللهُ الْوَاشِمَاتِ، وَالْمُوتَشِمَاتِ، وَالْمُتَنَمِّصَاتِ وَالْمُتَفَلِّجَاتِ لِلْحُسْنِ، الْمُغَيِّرَاتِ خَلْقَ اللهِ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ امْرَأَةً مِنْ بَنِي أَسَدٍ، يُقَالُ لَهَا أُمُّ يَعْقُوبٍ فَجَاءَتْ، فَقَالَتْ: إِنَّهُ بَلَغَنِي أَنَّكَ لَعَنْتَ كَيْتَ وَكَيْتَ فَقَالَ: وَمَا لِي لاَ أَلْعَنُ مَنْ لَعَنَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَمَنْ هُوَ فِي كِتَابِ اللهِ فَقَالَتْ: لَقَدْ قَرَأْتُ مَا بَيْنَ اللَّوْحَيْنِ فَمَا وَجَدْتُ فِيهِ مَا تَقُولُ فَقَالَ: لَئِنْ كُنْتِ قَرَأْتِيهِ، لَقَدْ وَجَدْتِيهِ أَمَا قَرَأْتِ (وَمَا آتَاكُمُ الرَّسُولُ فَخُذُوهُ، وَمَا نَهَاكُمْ عَنْهُ فَانْتَهُوا) قَالَتْ: بَلَى قَالَ: فَإِنَّهُ قَدْ نَهى عَنْهُ قَالَتْ: فَإِنِّي أَرَى أَهْلَكَ يَفْعَلُونَهُ قَالَ: فَاذْهَبِي، فَانْظُرِي فَذَهَبَتْ فَنَظَرَتْ، فَلَمْ تَرَ مِنْ حَاجَتِهَا شَيْئًا فَقَالَ: لَوْ كَانَتْ كَذَلِكَ مَا جَامَعَتْنَا
Hazrat Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that Allah has cursed those women who tattoo and those who get themselves tattooed, those who pluck facial hair, and those who create gaps between their front teeth for beauty, thereby altering the creation of Allah. The words of Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) reached a woman of the tribe of Banu Asad, who was known as Umm Ya'qub. She came and said, "I have come to know that you have cursed such and such women?" Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "Why should I not curse those whom the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) has cursed, and who are accursed according to the Book of Allah?" The woman said, "I have also read the Qur'an, but I have not found what you say anywhere in it." He said, "If you had read it carefully, you would surely have found it. Have you not read this verse: 'Whatever the Messenger (peace be upon him) gives you, take it, and whatever he forbids you, abstain from it.'" She said, "I have read it." Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "Then the Prophet (peace be upon him) has forbidden these things." Upon this, the woman said, "I think your wife also does this." He said, "Alright, go and see." The woman went and looked, but she did not find any such blameworthy thing there. Then Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "If my wife did such a thing, could she remain with me? Never."

Brief Explanation
From this statement of Abdullah ibn Mas‘ud radi Allahu anhu, those people are refuted who consider only the Qur’an as obligatory to follow and do not regard the noble hadith as obligatory to follow. Such people are outside the fold of Islam and are included in (the meaning of) “They wish to separate Allah from His messengers” (1). The hadith of the Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is not separate from the Noble Qur’an; rather, in the Wise Qur’an itself, there is a command to follow the noble hadith. Therefore, the deniers of hadith are, in reality, also deniers of the Qur’an. (Raaz)
