The Ruling on Cursing People During Disputes

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks, may Allah bless you: What is the ruling on cursing people over a trivial matter or a minor dispute?

Answer:
It is not permissible to curse people, animals, dwellings, or places. A woman was traveling with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and she had a camel she was riding. She cursed the camel, so the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered that the load be taken off the camel and that it be set free. The narrator said, “It was as if I saw it flowing away, and no one touched it.” She said, “It will not accompany us.” The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
A cursed camel will not accompany usلا تصحبنا ناقة ملعونة
. Yes.
