وَحَدَّثَنِي، عَنْ مَالِك، عَنْ
ابْنِ شِهَابٍ ، عَنْ
حُمَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ
مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنَ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ عَامَ حَجَّ وَهُوَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ، وَتَنَاوَلَ قُصَّةً مِنْ شَعَرٍ كَانَتْ فِي يَدِ حَرَسِيٍّ، يَقُولُ : يَا أَهْلَ الْمَدِينَةِ أَيْنَ عُلَمَاؤُكُمْ ؟ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَنْهَى عَنْ مِثْلِ هَذِهِ، وَيَقُولُ : " إِنَّمَا
هَلَكَتْ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ حِينَ اتَّخَذَ هَذِهِ نِسَاؤُهُمْ "
It is narrated from Humaid bin Abdur Rahman bin Awf that he heard Muawiyah bin Abu Sufyan, in the year he performed Hajj and he was on the pulpit, take a braid of hair from his servant’s hand and say: O people of Madinah! Where are your scholars? I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, forbidding this, and he said: “The Children of Israel were destroyed when their women began to do this.”
