Musnad Ahmad 1307Lts isnad is Sahih, Muslim (1978)
, is it a supplication for a curse upon them, or is it a report that Allah will curse the one who does these things?

Answer:
It is possible that it is either, it is possible that it is a report from Allah, and it is possible that it is the initiation of a curse by the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), and both matters are serious, whether it is a report from Allah or a curse from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him).
