أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحَسَنِ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَبْدَانَ، أنبأ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ الصَّفَّارُ، ثنا ابْنُ مِلْحَانَ، ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، ثنا اللَّيْثُ، عَنِ ابْنِ الْهَادِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " يَا مَعْشَرَ النِّسَاءِ، تَصَدَّقْنَ وَأَكْثِرْنَ الِاسْتِغْفَارَ، فَإِنِّي رَأَيْتُكُنَّ أَكْثَرَ أَهْلِ النَّارِ "، قَالَتِ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْهُنَّ: مَا لَنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ: " تُكْثِرْنَ اللَّعْنَ وَتَكْفُرْنَ الْعَشِيرَ، وَمَا رَأَيْتُ مِنْ نَاقِصَاتِ عَقْلٍ وَدِينٍ أَغْلَبَ لِذِي اللُّبِ مِنْكُنَّ "، قَالَتْ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، وَمَا نُقْصَانُ الْعَقْلِ وَالدِّينِ؟ قَالَ: " أَمَّا نُقْصَانُ الْعَقْلِ، فَشَهَادَةُ امْرَأَتَيْنِ تَعْدِلُ شَهَادَةَ رَجُلٍ وَاحِدٍ، فَهَذَا نُقْصَانُ الْعَقْلِ، وَتَمْكُثُ اللَّيَالِيَ لَا تُصَلِّي، وَتُفْطِرُ فِي رَمَضَانَ، فَهَذَا نُقْصَانُ الدِّينِ ". ⦗٢٥١⦘.
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O assembly of women! Give charity and seek forgiveness abundantly, for I have seen you to be the majority of the people of Hell." A woman among them said: O Messenger of Allah! Why is that for us (that we are the majority of the people of Hell)? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "You curse frequently and are ungrateful to your husbands. And I have not seen any who are deficient in intellect and religion more overpowering of a man of sense than you." She said: O Messenger of Allah! What is the deficiency of intellect and religion? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "As for the deficiency of intellect, the testimony of two women equals the testimony of one man; this is the deficiency of intellect. And she remains for nights without praying, and does not fast in Ramadan; this is the deficiency of religion."
