Combining the hadith on not disclosing secrets with the hadith of Umm Zira'
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. He asks: How can the hadith on not disclosing secrets be reconciled with the hadith of Umm Zira' in al-Bukhari?
Answer:
[The women were] like those of the farmers, describing their husbands, each one describing her husband. This does not indicate permissibility. It is a narration of the reality of women, a narration of the reality of women who were in the pre-Islamic age of ignorance (jahiliyyah), and it is evidence of backbiting about their husbands. Yes.
