Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Some people, when they get angry at their colleague, say, “May Allah not bless the hour in which I met you.” What is the ruling on that?
Answer:
Yes, this is disparaging the hour. There is no doubt that this is disparaging the hour and disparaging the time. So this is not permissible; this is not permissible. It is invoking a curse upon the hour and invoking a curse upon the day. This is disparaging it. If he invokes a curse upon it, he has disparaged it.
