Explanation of the Chapter: "Do Not Say, 'May Allah Ugly Your Face'"
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : This is the etiquette mentioned in Chapter One and Ninety-One, which is:
Chapter: "Do Not Say, 'May Allah Ugly Your Face.'" We say this word to one another today, and we are free people, but Islam forbids a master from saying to his slave, "May Allah ugly your face," or, for example, "Why is he so dark?" This is not permissible in Islam. So, due to our ignorance of Islam and our distance from observing the etiquettes of Islam, we use such words without feeling the slightest pang of conscience, sense of responsibility, or awareness of violating the Islamic Shari'ah when we say to one of our children, "May Allah ugly your face."
