On Women Wearing Perfume: Debunking Weak and Blasphemous Hadith -Mufti Abu Layth

now there is a hadith right the hadith is that any excuse me a human rotten star towards any woman so guys if you've just tuned in if you can click like and share get this out they have like people to to be aware of these rulings so we're discussing now women leaving home with perfume and the hadith that this comes in now this hadith is

transmitted by one companion okay abu musa al-ashari Rohde allah on now there are two other varying narrations that may lend some support to this and i'll discuss them one comes from is a transmission from a woman the wife of abdullah minimus road called zeyneb Asaka thea and the other transmission is from abu huraira or the Lewan right so but this narration that comes with this wording the others are they may lend some support to this notion and I'll get

to that but they're not this actual honey there is a very popular hadith at a umhum raatein is started any woman who wears perfume adorns herself with perfume for moderate Allah omen then she passes by people Leo G domine rehear so they may so and in a way that they can smell her perfume so they like her in any way that they can for here's Anya

then she is a fornicator woman okay an adult for us right so now this hadith has very that narration I just read to you is in the soon enough necessary it does come in Abu Dawood it comes in the most Ahmed I believe three different narration I mean three readings of the same hadith and it comes in Tirmidhi as well in some of them it mentions the wording that Kulu I mean that every eye

that looks at it every eye that looks at her sari is zania is is is also an fornicating eye and she is a fornicating woman so this is the hadith and this is quite commonly preached okay so a lot of people will sometimes under a lot of Imams and movies on their member will often teach this saying any woman that goes out wearing perfume she's an adulteress she's a fornicating woman I would like to tell you that people write this hadith that we've just

quoted here right this hadith is not sorry okay it is not sorry this hadith is life life people and this is a lie attributed to the messenger of allah sallallahu alayhi wasallam and let me go into this hadith let me go into this so first of all what I would like to highlight first of all is that this narration lets us take a look at this

narration this narration only rests on one companion this so as many of these hadith saying any woman who is perfume goes out she's an fornicating woman she is a zania any woman who wears perfume goes past people so they can smell her she's a zania any woman with perfume goes outside and any eye that looks at her she's a zania and the eyes a zania so this is all these a hadith they are all transmitted just they come through one companion just through one his name is abu musa al-ashari from him from him

just one person is meeting okay who named Ignotus from her name abilities just one person is transmitting this and his name is Thor bit ofnot Amara okay so just to remember that so these three so it's resting allegedly on abu musa al-ashari and then you've got who named abilities right who some people have claimed is a companion others said he was not a companion and we'll come to that in a moment and then from him Sabbath even Amara so it comes

through these and then there's some variation who is transmitting it there is one narration endure me now that means a book of hadith as well soon enough dar me their armies teacher whose name is Abu awesome who is known as maja asked him at the hawkish a Bernie from Basra who dies in 211 injury he's from the teachers of under me another great nada Fein he highlights this hadith why your father who borrow a subpoena

some of our companions have decided to make this have have raised this to the Prophet others did not others did not say this is the word of the Prophet okay they said that they stopped with the companion that this is the wording of maybe abu musa al-ashari or somebody but this was not the word of the prophet so our arson makes that very clear now just looking at this chain because this is the popular hadith that we've got going around everywhere so let's just take a

look first of all at who named in the face okay now who named him the face some people because he's transmitting from abu musa al-ashari some people said that he is a companion others like it nahin ban even assad Albahari it not be hard even Amanda Abu no I mean all these people said he is not a sahabi of the messenger of allah so there's a difference of opinion many of these people like Bihari and all these people if not be had him did not accept him as a companion they said he may have been alive at the time of the Prophet but he never

actually met or saw the Prophet despite what some people have claimed now he also this same chain from him or transmitted some strange things so one example that Imam Ahmed brings from his same students Herbet from him who named him saying that with the same companion abu musa al-ashari that one day we were with abu musa al-ashari and he said he said to us and to allah i dirtiest homage as habita Lutz

he said you who named you and you people here today are the same number as those who went to fight Goliath in the army of David David out aleihsalaam going back to that time so you guys are on the number so third bit says to her name and how many were you so he says I think we were 250 or I think we were 350 now this narration in itself goes to show the kind of stories being transmitted like obviously it's impossible to really know what was the number of the army of David

aleihsalaam so these things already give you an idea that whoa this this seems to be some mmm some problematic things transmitted by but but by these people the other thing is this person who named in the face hardly transmits anything else very few things come from him his students habited not murder people what have the scholar said about him abou her tomorrow Z the dawn of Jericho a deal said leasable Mateen he is not strong this on much

missile not strong in hadith even a Hodja although saying he is a good guy trust world likes speaks truth fee he leaned but he's not all that is a big week here and there right at the Hobby transmits a bow had him saying Lisa bill Kobe is not strong if Normandy knee says I asked yeah yeah if not yeah I'm no marina baths a vietnam-era for all aha you lie aqua min whom he says I asked him yeah he about him and he said these are the people are stronger than him much wrong

like as in he's got some problems so when we've got an isolated chain that's coming through just saboteur no matter who is not reliable naive the ieave people in hadith transmitting from almost an unknown person who hardly transmits and when he does transmit transmit something strange from a companion that some people Burmese teachers who transmit the same thing say was not a wording of the Prophet this is not a hadith but let me add further why

is this a problem people why is this a problem this hadith is not a problem simply because it's trying to just control women it's not a problem because of that per se that is a problem but that is not the shocking problem here because that is done in other places too the shocking thing is this is an attack on the messenger of allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam why do I say that because to call somebody a zania to call

a woman and adulterous or a fornicating woman goes not only it is a clear head in the Quran against anybody who says that so in the Quran there is a verse while Lavina yamuna masa not those who throw words women saying about Xena thumbnail um yeah to be our Bharati Shahada then they do not come with four weaknesses fragile ii dooms the man image elder lashed them 80 lashes when i talked about allah whom

shahadat an a burden do not ever accept from them a testimony again if a man was to call a woman zania use a Nia he would be punishable under Islamic law punishable to say The Messenger of Allah casually called every woman a fornicating woman that goes out with perfume is an attack on the honor of the messenger of allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam not only that somebody

may say oh but the Prophet here didn't mean it like this they may say the Prophet didn't mean it like this ah so let's take a look at the ruling in fact what is the ruling if you call a woman Yesenia so the my lakiya the school of Medina make it very clear whether you had that intention or another intention you will be punished because you have attacked the honour of a woman you have attacked the honor of a woman yes the humble ease and the chauffeur is in the

Hanna fear do go into saying the intention ought to be there but even they say if the wording is totally clear like Xena but if you used a different word like if you said for example oh you're easygoing and then you meant by and she said what do you mean by and and you said oh no I meant something else as in in life casually easygoing I don't mean it like as in you're a prostitute or something like that then those methods are a bit relaxed the Maliki method is still very harsh that if you attacked the honor of a woman you will

be punished regardless then not so just to let me just see if I've got this here Imam Malik in the Madonna Imam Malik in his 5th April person says ara 8:00 a.m.

rats and Carla ha Roger Anya's Anya if a man says to a woman yeah Sonia and then he goes on adds more as well if this and she says this says total to the rock I'll had that the head is applied live Roger upon the man ok the hug that the man is punished for what he said check this out now if a woman imagined this now if a woman this is coming to the intention part if a woman they speak of the example were if a woman had been a victim of rape but

the man said to her call le Marat in Edina BIA is na tu did Xena you fornicated and then he says what Anton was stuck gonna hire you for negated but it was done against your will right all if he says to her you come you fornicated what whilst you were a Christian what antonis Rania or if he said to a man even this doesn't have to be gender specific that oh you fornicated you whilst you were a Christian right what did Imam Malik say Dorabella Dorabella all

had had l-fatiha he is taken in that day and age he was lashed as in he is punished leon Nimmons enough in nasa Rani Alya do zaleka zina even if he did that previously before Islam that does not take he's not taken into account in Islam and this is a slander against him now and then Imam Malik says in he says lana malikan caliphate re al had Hamelin now what's interesting what about this hadith how could the Prophet be saying

that to people how could he be saying that the lasagna you are a zania search and what does the Quran say about the Prophet in Nacala Allah who looking nothing this is the Prophet would never ever have said something like this this is a slander against the honor of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam right that he would speak about women in such a way and what does the hadith in Bukhari when Una's describing him say let me hakuna he was never for Hashem what a suburban he was not somebody that

would be fahisha in his words or suburb or use Swiss Oh curse well Allah Annan this was the messenger of allah salallahu alaihe salam now the messenger himself said in a hadith that is in abu dawood man rama mu'minin whosoever accused a believer Bechet in you read to be he shana in a way to kind of degrade them right huh Bursa hello I like history Jahannam then Allah will hold this person on a bridge above the fire meaning that this is how

seriously and in another this another narration as well another the old man olofi movement in Malaysia fihi as can allow rather intelligible hat is once again trying to say that he will be held in that he will be punished for these things but what happened what about this part of the hadith Kulu I mean in zhonya your eye is an adult rating of fornicating I look what it my Malik is asked Allah Aitor ignore Qasim says in color in color signing fook that your mouth is an

adult rating mouth o Senate Ridge look o your foot or your leg is an adult rating leg fornicating like Imam Malik is being lost this okay so imam malik being asked aarathi hill hat I understand him him to be punished that's what Imam Malik said this is the school of Medina people write these these things are miss attributions to the messenger of allah sallallahu alayhi wasallam they are art early against his

honor to say that the Prophet would be a kid saying oh but he meant it to dis to just as they kind of deterrent the Prophet wouldn't call a woman a fornicating woman just to deter her he could just say that using other words he could have said don't wear perfume or don't don't do this it said why would he accuse throw such a grandiose such a a serious label at them so this is utterly false the chain like I said is only transmitted through abu musa al-ashari through her name interface through

saboted Namara Sabbath of Marah is a weak transmitter as I've explained chi Cygni her name has transmitted strange things and doesn't transmit much anyway and abour asking who transmits this chain from Daraa me say is that some of our companions said this was from the Prophet so this was not from the prophet of God now somebody could say what there are some other narrations that not that don't say things like this at all but there's some other narrations like from

so there's two other kinds one is from zeyneb hasta Coffea now this hadith from zainabou sokovia is transmitted in books right it's transmitted you've got this in a few different books like in it does come in in the Muslim life more than and quite a few others as well this is all one narration it's all too with the eshop ray she was the wife of

Abdul Edna mr. hood and her companion from her her friend sorry a student if not a friend her student is transmitting it from her the students name is boo sleepness I eats a booster booster rip NEBOSH yep so possibly Saeed is transmitting it and she says that I went to the mosque and the Prophet said now he said that if you're coming to Asia l aquila that's mentioned in all the narrations if you're coming to the final

Asia then don't wear perfume now this has this a few perspectives at this now in one of the narrations you'll find so for example insulin SAE when this is mentioned Boozer is saying the Prophet said to her specifically Allah tomasa that she doesn't touch perfume so some of the narrations are just her and some of the narrations are general so they're saying that oh that you shouldn't you

lot shouldn't as in the plural thing but my question is first of all how is this a prohibition in general because it could be that make why do all of these narrations mention only YCJA a lockira the final a sharp ray of night so some scholars have tried to say old but that's when only women would come out that's not true women would go to the marketplace women would go out for their daily business they would do things why is the Prophet only mentioning it here and if it was Haram in general why not

say by the way perfume is haram outside why say to her as in some of the narrations just to her don't you wear this at this time was this a specific thing that they were wearing that was upsetting who was this something very isolated in my understanding this was just an isolated incident that may whatever it was it was not a general ruling because if it was a general ruling the Prophet would have said that here mash are Anissa women do not go out in proof wearing perfume but why is he saying to her and only to her she's the only person transmitting this and in some

narrations exclusively to her in some day saying to her as in you lot who attend only a shuttle Arcana the final night pray don't wear your perfume so whatever the reason for that was maybe there was a particular type of perfume that was upsetting people maybe it was just it wasn't maybe they were overdoing it maybe whatever the reason the hadith doesn't say but what it does not say is that it was haram for all women because more deservingly comment being honest you've got the night prayer okay but what is more of an issue would be women

going out during the day outside in the marketplaces doing things I'm sure if they're all wearing perfume that would be more of an issue to address but yet the Prophet this is not transmitted through any sigh sorry changed back to the prophet of God salallahu alaihe salam the final hadith right now this is this hadith is from Abu Huraira now this is transmitted in Abu Dawood and in the most of the Batman and and these books mainly the Abu Huraira saw a woman going and he said to

this woman that where did you just come from and she says from the Masjid and he says what we're all that perfume that you're wearing and she says yes and then Abu Huraira says to her lair took Baloo soliton limb row are the Salah will be invalid for a woman invalid for a woman that has worn perfume and come to this Masjid until she doesn't do hustle hustle jahnava like the ritual shower after

having intercourse for example now this hadith is not a hadith from the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam okay this is like I said transmitted from Abu Huraira from Abu Huraira a particular person only transmits this his name is obeyed mola of Iran okay now so obeyed mola of Iran according to some of the his it was some freed slave according to ignore fat pan we don't even know who he is he says now you are off we don't even know who this person is from obeyed mola

of Iran this is transmitted from one person abdul kareem who is unknown and in more popular chains this is transmitted by arson in Nevada law and flourish al-madani and who is this awesome people this awesome you've not away the law Abdullah a Dorothy said about him live Jeremy said about him live in Omaha I said about him live April Matheny said my naive about her tomorrow Z abuzer are rosy and albahari they said about him monka monka all

hadith this person is utterly unacceptable that hadith is utterly utterly unacceptable as a hadith from the prophet salallahu alaihe salam whether these things somehow above herrera said them or not is a different story but nobody accepts these rulings of course a woman's praise accepted and nobody says a woman has to do hustling janaba she has to go and shower like a ritual showering and if you're gonna say this is exaggeration or but that's not what that hadith says and even if you do try to accept this hadith it is transmitted it's only really coming from homemade

mullah be wrong and from him I'll sing with Nabi now and this is life the ieave people okay so and and if you're gonna go back to the main hadith of the Bob that any woman that leaves her home while she's wearing perfume she's a zania then please be careful do not attribute these slanderous claims and labels to the messenger of allah who was a rahmatan lil ila mean he was a mercy for the world he was not somebody that would go around saying to women you're resigning just because he doesn't want it to do something he is he was the

most articulate in expression if he wanted to say something to them like that's Haram he could have easily said that's Haram he didn't need to say oh I'm gonna scare you by calling you a fornicator or calling you a prostitute or calling you these things do not befit the the noble character of the messenger of allah sallallahu alayhi wasallam so I would advise all people to refrain from that as to women generally the ruling yes of course they can work perfume when they go out and people should wear a certain amount of perfume people should always smell good they should always be

presentable they should always kind of see themselves these things as a blessing of God for them okay so hygiene and the Deen is built upon not only hygiene but also presentable 'ti okay people so that's a summary of that hadith okay let's take
