Throwing Waste in Parks: Does This Fall Under the Hadith: “Beware of the Two Cursed Ones”?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
I have a final question. Regarding the hadith of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), “Beware of the two cursed ones: the one who relieves himself in the path of people or in their shade,” does throwing waste, Pepsi cans, and bottles count as relieving oneself, Shaykh?
The Shaykh:
What?
The questioner:
It is included.
The Shaykh:
Whatever harms people. Yes.
The questioner:
I mean, what kind of harm, Shaykh?
The Shaykh:
No, it is not permissible.
The questioner:
Okay, and what is meant by “Allah” here, Shaykh? What is meant?
The Shaykh:
Because of what is with people, I mean.
The questioner:
I mean, if you played...
The Shaykh:
And people curse the one who did it.
The questioner:
I mean, cursing is not forbidden.
The Shaykh:
It is one of the causes of cursing.
The questioner:
If you cursed, is that forbidden?
The Shaykh:
No, one should not curse; one should rebuke him. Otherwise, cursing a Muslim is not permissible. But people may curse him and not care.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good and preserve you, Shaykh.
