حَدَّثَنَا
رِبْعِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، حَدَّثَنَا
عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ يَعْنِي ابْنَ إِسْحَاق ، عَنْ
سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ
أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ :
" ثَلَاثٌ مِنْ عَمَلِ أَهْلِ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ لَا يَتْرُكُهُنَّ أَهْلُ الْإِسْلَامِ : النِّيَاحَةُ ، وَالِاسْتِسْقَاءُ بِالْأَنْوَاءِ ، وَكَذَا " . قُلْتُ لِسَعِيدٍ : وَمَا هُوَ ؟ قَالَ : دَعْوَى الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ يَا آلَ فُلَانٍ ، يَا آلَ فُلَانٍ ، يَا آلَ فُلَانٍ .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: There are three practices from the time of ignorance that Muslims will not abandon: wailing over the dead, seeking rain through the stars, and doing such-and-such. I asked Saeed what this meant. He explained that it refers to, during fights and quarrels, calling upon one's family or saying "O family of so-and-so, O family of so-and-so," as was done in the time of ignorance.
