Cursing People
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The fourth question of Fatwa No. ( 7622 )
Q4: Is it permissible for a man to curse people and invoke the curse of Satan upon them? Is it permissible for a man to insult his wife and abuse her, and call her
cursed, angry, or ugly?
A4 : It is not permissible to do so with a Muslim, whether distant or close, rather it is among the major sins; for the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):Sahih Muslim 64a agreed upon by al-Bukhari and Muslim, and his saying (peace and blessings be upon him): Riyad as-Salihin 1560 narrated by al-Bukhari . And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.

A4 : It is not permissible to do so with a Muslim, whether distant or close, rather it is among the major sins; for the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):
Abusing a Muslim is an outrage and fighting against him is unbelief
سباب المسلم فسوق، وقتاله كفرWhen any Muslim accuses another Muslim of sin or of disbelief, the reproach rebounds upon the one who utters it, if the other person is not deserving of it.
لا يرمي رجل رجلاً بالفسق أو الكفر إلا ارتدت عليه إن لم يكن صاحبه كذلك
