Our sister is also asking about the saying of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him): ?
Answer: This is an authentic hadith narrated by Muslim in his Sahih, from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), that he said:Sahih Muslim 2128. This is a great warning, and one must be cautious of what it indicates. The men who have whips in their hands like the tails of cows are those who take charge of beating people without right, whether they are police officers or other men. Everyone who takes charge of beating people without right falls under this hadith, whether by the order of the state or without the order of the state; for the state is only obeyed in what is right. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sunan Abi Dawud 2625Sahih (Al-Albani), Mishkat al-Masabih 3696. As for his (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: Muwatta Malik 48:8, the scholars have explained that the meaning of his saying: (clothed) means: from the blessings of Allah, (naked) means: from the gratitude for them. They did not stand by the obedience of Allah, but rather they were bold in committing sins and evil deeds, despite Allah’s bestowal of wealth and other things upon them. It was also explained with another meaning: that the meaning of (clothed) is: a nominal covering with no reality, meaning: a covering that does not achieve the intended purpose; for this reason he said: (naked). There is a covering, but it has no value and no benefit; either because of its shortness, or because of its thinness, being so thin that the private parts are seen through it, or being so short that the legs are exposed, or other things like the hands and chests, and the like.
The result is that it is a covering that does not achieve the intended purpose; for this reason it is called nakedness; due to the lack of sufficiency in the covering. Rather, it is a thin covering that exposes the private parts, or a short one that does not cover the entire body.
(Leaning) means: leaning away from modesty and uprightness, meaning: they have sins and evil deeds; for this reason they are called: leaning, meaning: leaning away from modesty, like the one who commits fornication, or leaning away from performing the obligatory duties such as prayers and others.
(Causing others to lean): the meaning is: causing others to lean, meaning: that they call to evil and corruption. So by their actions and words, they incline others toward corruption, sins, and committing fornications; due to their lack of faith, or the weakness of their faith and the smallness of their faith.
The intent of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in that is warning. The intent of this warning is from this evil deed, and warning against taking these described women as friends or companions. Rather, one must warn them and disapprove of them, and they should not be taken as companions or friends while they are in this state; because of the corruption and evil they possess.
And his (peace and blessings be upon him) saying:Sahih Muslim 2128 The Bakhit is a type of camel that has two humps with some depression between them. So this one is tilted to one side, and this one is tilted to the other side, one end tilted to one side and one end tilted to the other side. So these women, when they enlarged their heads and made their heads big with what they put on them, they resembled these humps.
His saying:Muwatta Malik 48:8 This is a severe warning that indicates caution. It does not necessitate disbelief, nor their eternal abode in the Fire like the other sins. This is a warning. So if they are Muslim women but they commit these fornications, this is one of the causes of their entering the Fire and being punished in the Fire according to their sins. They will not abide in the Fire eternally if they are Muslim women who affirm the oneness of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) , and believe in the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). They will not abide in the Fire eternally, but they are warned with this severe warning regarding their sins and evil deeds.
And the people of the Sunnah and the community say: that the sinner, even if he enters the Fire, will not abide in it eternally. He is in danger, but he will not abide in it if he enters it. Rather, he will be punished according to his sins for which he died and did not repent. Then Allah will take him out of the Fire after purification and cleansing to Paradise. This is the saying of the people of the Sunnah and the community, contrary to the Khawarij and the Mu'tazilah. The Khawarij and the Mu'tazilah say: that whoever enters the Fire will abide in it eternally, absolutely. And this is a false and misguided saying. With the Mu'tazilah and the Khawarij: that the fornicator abides in the Fire eternally, and the fornicatress abides in the Fire eternally, and the thief abides in the Fire eternally, and the one who is undutiful to his parents abides in the Fire eternally, and the one who severs family ties abides in the Fire eternally, and the one who deals in usury abides in the Fire eternally if he enters it, all of them; because with them, these sins necessitate the Fire, and abiding in it forever like the disbelievers. We seek refuge in Allah from that. And this is a corrupt saying with the people of the Sunnah and an error. It has been established from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and the reports from him have been mass-transmitted: that the sinners will be taken out of the Fire, and that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) will intercede for them, and the believers will intercede for them, and their excesses will intercede for them, and the angels will intercede. So Allah will take out of the Fire everyone who has in his heart the weight of a mustard seed of faith, the weight of a barley grain of faith, the weight of a lentil of faith.
The intent is that the people of sins who are Muslims affirming the oneness of Allah who entered the Fire with their sins, and they are not disbelievers, then they will not abide in the Fire eternally. Rather, whenever they enter it, they will be punished in it according to the crimes for which they died. And after purification and cleansing, Allah will take them out of the Fire by His grace, Glorified and Exalted is He, either by the intercession of the intercessors, or by His mere grace and mercy, Glorified and Exalted is He, without the intercession of anyone, by the grace of Allah, Mighty and Majestic.
This is what the people of the Sunnah and the community are upon, from the Companions of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and from their followers with excellence, may Allah be pleased with them. Yes.
leaning and causing others to lean
مائلات مميلاتAnswer: This is an authentic hadith narrated by Muslim in his Sahih, from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), that he said:
Two are the types of the denizens of Hell whom I did not see: people having flogs like the tails of the ox with them and they would be beating people, and the women who would be dressed but appear to be naked, who would be inclined (to evil) and make their husbands incline towards it. Their heads would be like the humps of the bukht camel inclined to one side. They will not enter Paradise and they would not smell its odour
صنفان من أهل النار لم أرهما: رجال بأيديهم سياط كأذناب البقر يضربون بها الناس، ونساء كاسيات عاريات، مائلات مميلات، رءوسهن كأسنمة البخت المائلة، لا يدخلن الجنة ولا يجدن ريحها...Obedience is in matters which are good and universally recognized.
إنما الطاعة في المعروفA creature is not to be obeyed when it involves disobedience to the "Creator.”
لا طاعة لمخلوق في معصية الخالقWomen who are naked even though they are wearing clothes, go astray and make others go astray
نساء كاسيات عاريات مائلات مميلاتThe result is that it is a covering that does not achieve the intended purpose; for this reason it is called nakedness; due to the lack of sufficiency in the covering. Rather, it is a thin covering that exposes the private parts, or a short one that does not cover the entire body.
(Leaning) means: leaning away from modesty and uprightness, meaning: they have sins and evil deeds; for this reason they are called: leaning, meaning: leaning away from modesty, like the one who commits fornication, or leaning away from performing the obligatory duties such as prayers and others.

And his (peace and blessings be upon him) saying:
Their heads would be like the humps of the bukht camel inclined to one side
رءوسهن كأسنمة البخت المائلةHis saying:
they will not enter the Garden and they will not find its scent
لا يدخلن الجنة ولا يجدن ريحهاAnd the people of the Sunnah and the community say: that the sinner, even if he enters the Fire, will not abide in it eternally. He is in danger, but he will not abide in it if he enters it. Rather, he will be punished according to his sins for which he died and did not repent. Then Allah will take him out of the Fire after purification and cleansing to Paradise. This is the saying of the people of the Sunnah and the community, contrary to the Khawarij and the Mu'tazilah.
