Hadith 3511

أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْحَكَمِ ، قَالَ شُعَيْبٌ قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ ، عَنْ ابْنِ الْهَادِ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ يُونُسَ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ حِينَ نَزَلَتْ آيَةُ الْمُلَاعَنَةِ : " أَيُّمَا امْرَأَةٍ أَدْخَلَتْ عَلَى قَوْمٍ رَجُلًا لَيْسَ مِنْهُمْ ، فَلَيْسَتْ مِنَ اللَّهِ فِي شَيْءٍ ، وَلَا يُدْخِلُهَا اللَّهُ جَنَّتَهُ ، وَأَيُّمَا رَجُلٍ جَحَدَ وَلَدَهُ وَهُوَ يَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ ، احْتَجَبَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ مِنْهُ ، وَفَضَحَهُ عَلَى رُءُوسِ الْأَوَّلِينَ وَالْآخِرِينَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ " .
´It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that he heard the Messenger of Allah say when the Verse of Mula'anah (Li'an) was revealed:` "Any woman who falsely attributes a man to people to whom he does not belong, has no share from Allah, and Allah will not admit her to His Paradise. Any man who denies his son while looking at him (knowing that he is indeed his son), Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, will cast him away, and disgrace him before the first and the last on the Day of Resurrection."

Explanation & Benefits
Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
(1) "Who is not from among them" — that is, he is the result of adultery, but she attributes him to the husband.

(2) "Has no connection with Allah, the Exalted" — this is hyperbole; the apparent words are not intended. The meaning is that it is a very grave sin which can become a cause for deprivation from Allah, the Exalted, and His mercy. Or, the following sentence, "Allah, the Exalted, will not admit him to Paradise," is its explanation.

(3) "While the child is looking at him" — this translation is also possible: "While the man is looking at the child, realizing that he is indeed his." And Allah knows best.

Benefits and Issues:
If a woman commits adultery somewhere and becomes pregnant, and then attributes the child to her husband and his people, or if a father, without any valid or legitimate reason, denies his own child, then both of these are extremely detestable and vile acts.
And both of these actions are among the major sins (kaba'ir).
