Question

What is status of following Hadith ?

من نظر إلى فرج امرأة لم تحل له أمها ولا ابنتها
أخرجه ابن أبي شيبة في المصنف

 

Answer

The chain for this particular Hadith is weak.

(Refer: footnotes of Shaykh Muhammad ‘Awwamah on Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah, Hadith: 16490)

 

Note: This is not the only proof on this issue. Rulings of Shari’ah are deduced from any of the four sources; Quran, Sunnah, Ijma’ (consensus) and Qiyas (analogy). Refer to the books of the Fuqaha for details.

 

 

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best,
