Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him):
This world is cursed and what is in it is cursedالدنيا ملعونة ملعون ما فيها..
Sunan Ibn Majah 4112Hasan (Darussalam)
?

Answer:
It means "blameworthy," that is, subject to blame, like:
(43) Indeed, the tree of zaqqum (44) Is food for the sinful.شجرة الزقوم طعام الأثيم
[Ad-Dukhan 44:43-44]
. He called it "cursed," saying:
as was the accursed tree [mentioned] in the Qur'anوَالشَّجَرَةَ الْمَلْعُونَةَ فِي الْقُرْآنِ
[Al-Isra 17:60]
, meaning "blameworthy." The world is blameworthy because it occupies one from the Hereafter and diverts one from guidance, except for the one who uses it to aid in good.
