5107. It was narrated from Ibn 'Awn, from Ash-Sh'aḇī, from Al-Ḥārīth, who said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ cursed the one who consumes Ribā, the one who pays it, the one who writes it down and the one who witnesses it; the woman who does tattoos and the woman who has that done" – he said:[1] "Unless it is done as a remedy," he said: "Yes" – "the man who married a woman in order to divorce her so that she may go back to her first husband and the man (the first husband) for whom that is done; and the one who withholds Sadaqah (Zakāh). And he used to forbid wailing (in mourning), but he did not say 'cursed.'" (Hasan)
