Hadith 5197
اُردوEn
وَهُوَ الزَّوْجُ وَهُوَ الْخَلِيطُ مِنَ الْمُعَاشَرَةِ ، فِيهِ : عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ .
This word is derived from "mu'asharah," which means mixing or mingling. In this chapter, Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated from the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him).
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكٌ ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ : " خَسَفَتِ الشَّمْسُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَصَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَالنَّاسُ مَعَهُ ، فَقَامَ قِيَامًا طَوِيلًا نَحْوًا مِنْ سُورَةِ الْبَقَرَةِ ، ثُمَّ رَكَعَ رُكُوعًا طَوِيلًا ، ثُمَّ رَفَعَ فَقَامَ قِيَامًا طَوِيلًا وَهُوَ دُونَ الْقِيَامِ الْأَوَّلِ ، ثُمَّ رَكَعَ رُكُوعًا طَوِيلًا وَهُوَ دُونَ الرُّكُوعِ الْأَوَّلِ ، ثُمَّ سَجَدَ ، ثُمَّ قَامَ فَقَامَ قِيَامًا طَوِيلًا وَهُوَ دُونَ الْقِيَامِ الْأَوَّلِ ، ثُمَّ رَكَعَ رُكُوعًا طَوِيلًا وَهُوَ دُونَ الرُّكُوعِ الْأَوَّلِ ، ثُمَّ رَفَعَ فَقَامَ قِيَامًا طَوِيلًا وَهُوَ دُونَ الْقِيَامِ الْأَوَّلِ ، ثُمَّ رَكَعَ رُكُوعًا طَوِيلًا وَهُوَ دُونَ الرُّكُوعِ الْأَوَّلِ ، ثُمَّ رَفَعَ ، ثُمَّ سَجَدَ ، ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ وَقَدْ تَجَلَّتِ الشَّمْسُ ، فَقَالَ : إِنَّ الشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ آيَتَانِ مِنْ آيَاتِ اللَّهِ لَا يَخْسِفَانِ لِمَوْتِ أَحَدٍ وَلَا لِحَيَاتِهِ ، فَإِذَا رَأَيْتُمْ ذَلِكَ فَاذْكُرُوا اللَّهَ ، قَالُوا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، رَأَيْنَاكَ تَنَاوَلْتَ شَيْئًا فِي مَقَامِكَ هَذَا ، ثُمَّ رَأَيْنَاكَ تَكَعْكَعْتَ ، فَقَالَ : إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ الْجَنَّةَ أَوْ أُرِيتُ الْجَنَّةَ ، فَتَنَاوَلْتُ مِنْهَا عُنْقُودًا وَلَوْ أَخَذْتُهُ لَأَكَلْتُمْ مِنْهُ مَا بَقِيَتِ الدُّنْيَا ، وَرَأَيْتُ النَّارَ فَلَمْ أَرَ كَالْيَوْمِ مَنْظَرًا قَطُّ وَرَأَيْتُ أَكْثَرَ أَهْلِهَا النِّسَاءَ ، قَالُوا : لِمَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ؟ قَالَ : بِكُفْرِهِنَّ ، قِيلَ : يَكْفُرْنَ بِاللَّهِ ، قَالَ : يَكْفُرْنَ الْعَشِيرَ وَيَكْفُرْنَ الْإِحْسَانَ لَوْ أَحْسَنْتَ إِلَى إِحْدَاهُنَّ الدَّهْرَ ، ثُمَّ رَأَتْ مِنْكَ شَيْئًا ، قَالَتْ : مَا رَأَيْتُ مِنْكَ خَيْرًا قَطُّ " .
Narrated `Abdullah bin `Abbas: During the lifetime of Allah's Apostle, the sun eclipsed. Allah's Apostle offered the prayer of (the) eclipse) and so did the people along with him. He performed a long Qiyam (standing posture) during which Surat-al-Baqara could have been recited; then he performed a pro-longed bowing, then raised his head and stood for a long time which was slightly less than that of the first Qiyam (and recited Qur'an). Then he performed a prolonged bowing again but the period was shorter than the period of the first bowing, then he stood up and then prostrated. Again he stood up, but this time the period of standing was less than the first standing. Then he performed a prolonged bowing but of a lesser duration than the first, then he stood up again for a long time but for a lesser duration than the first. Then he performed a prolonged bowing but of lesser duration than the first, and then he again stood up, and then prostrated and then finished his prayer. By then the sun eclipse had cleared. The Prophet then said, "The sun and the moon are two signs among the signs of Allah, and they do not eclipse because of the death or birth of someone, so when you observe the eclipse, remember Allah (offer the eclipse prayer)." They (the people) said, "O Allah's Apostle! We saw you stretching your hand to take something at this place of yours, then we saw you stepping backward." He said, "I saw Paradise (or Paradise was shown to me), and I stretched my hand to pluck a bunch (of grapes), and had I plucked it, you would have eaten of it as long as this world exists. Then I saw the (Hell) Fire, and I have never before, seen such a horrible sight as that, and I saw that the majority of its dwellers were women." The people asked, "O Allah's Apostle! What is the reason for that?" He replied, "Because of their ungratefulness." It was said. "Do they disbelieve in Allah (are they ungrateful to Allah)?" He replied, "They are not thankful to their husbands and are ungrateful for the favors done to them. Even if you do good to one of them all your life, when she seems some harshness from you, she will say, "I have never seen any good from you.' "

Hadith Commentary:
(1)
A scene of Hell was presented to the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) which pertained to disobedient and sinful women.
It is that women often show ingratitude towards the rights of their husbands, whereas doing so is a grave sin, and this very sin is the cause of their entry into Hell.
(2)
The nature of women described in the hadith is based on reality.
Very few fortunate women are such that they are obedient and compliant to their husbands and are grateful even for the meager provisions from their husbands.

Hadith Commentary:
Because these occurrences take place under the transformations of Allah’s divine power, therefore, especially on such occasions, remembering Allah and performing prayer (salah) becomes a means for the increase of faith (iman).

1494. Commentary:
➊ The lengthy standing (qiyam) and other acts in the prayer of eclipse (salat al-kusuf) are not for the purpose of making the sun shine again; the sun is destined to shine according to its usual course, whether someone prays or not, or even if people utter abuses, because it is a matter of divine decree (takwini). This prayer is only for the fulfillment of a temporary obligation, just as the dawn (fajr) prayer is recited at length. Generally, the time of an eclipse is prolonged. Especially in your (the Prophet’s) era, the eclipse was a total solar eclipse, and it takes considerable time for a total solar eclipse to end. Therefore, prolonging this prayer is recommended (mustahabb) and is in accordance with the temporal requirement.
➋ The meaning of kufr is both to deny and to be ungrateful. Here, the second meaning is intended. And this entry into Hell is temporary, because the ultimate and permanent abode of sinful believers is Paradise; however, true disbelievers (kuffar) are eternally in Hell, and Hell is their permanent abode.
