Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : And the fact is that his side is tilted.
And his saying:
Two wives امرأتان
means: two wives.
So in this hadith, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) warns against inclining toward one of the two wives to the exclusion of the other, and he says:
When a man has two wives من كانت له امرأتان
Sunan Abi Dawud 2133Sahih (Al-Albani)
means: two wives.
and he is inclined to one of them, he will come on the Day of resurrection with a side hanging down. فمال إلى إحداهما ، جاء يوم القيامة وشقه مائل
Sunan Abi Dawud 2133Sahih (Al-Albani)
: And his saying:
Inclined مال
means the inclination for which one is blamed, not the inclination that one is unable to control, due to the saying of Allah the Exalted:
And you will never be able to be equal [in feeling] between wives, even if you should strive [to do so]. So do not incline completely [toward one] and leave another hanging ولن تستطيعوا أن تعدلوا بين النساء ولو حرصتم فلا تميلوا كل الميل فتذروها كالمعلقة
[An-Nisa 4:129]
.
So his saying:
Inclined toward one of them مال إلى إحداهما
means: an inclination for which one is blamed.
The Day of Resurrection came جاء يوم القيامة
: It means he came to the gathering place of the people on the Day of Resurrection with his side tilted, thereby being exposed before the people.
