Does the man who was invited by a woman who has neither status nor beauty fall among the seven?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : This is Sa'd ibn 'Ali al-Jaloud. We mentioned in the explanation of Muslim that when stoning a fornicator, the combatants should keep their distance. However, the action of Khalid ibn al-Walid confused me, where he threw a stone at al-Ghamidi from the direction of the head, as in the hadith of Buraydah. It is not confusing; the head can withstand more than other parts. But if a person hits him, for example, near the nose or near the eye, the place where death occurs quickly, that is not valid, because this is the first time he kills him and he dies. This is in the hadith of the seven, and it is 'Abd al-Salam al-Salih in the hadith of the seven whom Allah will shade on the Day when there is no shade except His, among whom is a man whom a woman of high status and beauty invited, and he said, "I fear Allah." The question is: if the woman is not of high status and beauty, or is of high status without beauty, or of beauty without status, does the man fall among the seven? And does a woman fall among them if a man of high status and beauty invited her and she said, "I fear Allah"? As for the first, yes, he does not fall among them, because the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) stipulated that she must be of high status and beauty. That means, if she is not beautiful, there is nothing to invite him to have intercourse with her. If she is not of high status, because she is lowly and from the common people, not from the nobles, then the soul also finds it repulsive. As for the second, which is your question of whether the woman falls among them? Yes, if a man of high status and beauty invited her and she said, "I fear Allah," then she is like you. Is Hamdan ibn Suwaylim not present?
