From the Supplications of the Bedouins
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The second question of Fatwa No. ( 20383 )
Q 2: It is a custom among us in the Bedouin dialect to say: "May your father have no mercy," or "May your father not be resurrected." When we are angry with others, we say: "May your mother and father be in the Fire," and we say: "May your parents have no mercy." I ask your Eminence to issue a ruling on these phrases: are they permissible or forbidden?
A 2: It is obligatory to abandon these phrases because they involve transgressing against others through supplication. Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, says:[Al-Baqarah 2:190] ,
and He, Glorified and Exalted is He, says:[Al-Baqarah 2:83] . And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.

وَلاَ تَعْتَدُوا إِنَّ اللَّهَ لاَ يُحِبُّ الْمُعْتَدِينَand He, Glorified and Exalted is He, says:
And speak to people good [words]
وَقُولُوا لِلنَّاسِ حُسْنًا
