Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri
On ‘Id ul Fitr or ‘Id ul Adha Allah’s Apostle (p.b.u.h) went out to the Musalla. After finishing the
prayer, he delivered the sermon and ordered the people to give alms. He said, “O people! Give alms.”
Then he went towards the women and said. “O women! Give alms, for I have seen that the majority
of the dwellers of Hell-Fire were you (women).” The women asked, “O Allah’s Apostle! What is the
reason for it?” He replied, “O women! You curse frequently, and are ungrateful to your husbands. I
have not seen anyone more deficient in intelligence and religion than you. O women, some of you
can lead a cautious wise man astray.” Then he left. And when he reached his house, Zainab, the wife
of Ibn Masud, came and asked permission to enter It was said, “O Allah’s Apostle! It is Zainab.” He
asked, ‘Which Zainab?” The reply was that she was the wife of Ibn Mas’ub. He said, “Yes, allow her to
enter.” And she was admitted. Then she said, “O Prophet of Allah! Today you ordered people to give
alms and I had an ornament and intended to give it as alms, but Ibn Masud said that he and his chil –
dren deserved it more than anybody else.” The Prophet replied, “Ibn Masud had spoken the truth.
Your husband and your children had more right to it than anybody else.”
