The questioner : What is the ruling on a man cursing the father or mother of another man? Please clarify this for us, as this is widespread among people. May Allah guide you.

The Shaykh : This is forbidden. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Allah cursed him who cursed his parents لعن الله من لعن والديه
Sahih Muslim 1978b
one abuses the father of another man, who in turn abuses his father. One abuses his mother and he in turn abuses his (the former's) mother. يسب أبا الرجل فيسب أباه، ويسب أمه فيسب أمه
Sahih Muslim 90a
Therefore, it is not permissible for a man to curse the parents of another person, especially since this is a transgression against someone who has not wronged him. What is the sin of the parents that this man should direct curses at them?

The questioner : Yes, his fourth question.
