1582. It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbās that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Wailing over the dead is one of the affairs of the Days of Ignorance and if the woman who wails does not repent before she dies, she will be resurrected on the Day of Resurrection wearing a shirt of pitch (tar), over which she will wear a shirt of flaming fire.” (Hasan)

Arabic text

1582 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ رَاشِدٍ الْيَمَامِيُّ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «النِّيَاحَةُ عَلَى الْمَيِّتِ، مِنْ أَمْرِ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ، فَإِنَّ النَّائِحَةَ إِنْ لَمْ تَتُبْ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَمُوتَ، فَإِنَّهَا تُبْعَثُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ عَلَيْهَا سَرَابِيلُ مِنْ قَطِرَانٍ، ثُمَّ يُعْلَى عَلَيْهَا، بِدِرْعٍ مِنْ لَهَبِ النَّارِ»

Commentary

This warning is not only to women, but also if a man commits this sin, he will get exactly the same punishment in the Hereafter.
