ENGLISH

Asid bin Abu Usaid reported:

A woman who had taken a pledge of allegiance at the hand of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Among the matters in respect of which we gave the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) the pledge not to disobey him in any Ma'ruf <b>[i.e., all that Islam ordains (V:60:12)]</b> was that we should not slap our faces, bewail, tear our clothes up and tear out our hair (in grief)." <b>[Abu Dawud]</b>.

ARABIC

وعن أسيد بن أبي أسيد التابعي عن امرأة من المبايعات قالت‏:‏ كان فيما أخذ علينا رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، في المعروف الذي أخذ علينا أن لا نعصيه فيه‏:‏ أن لا نخمش وجهًا، ولا ندعو ويلا، ولا نشق جيبًا، وأن لا ننشر شعرًا‏"‏‏. ((رواه أبو داود بإسناد حسن ))‏
