6. Jabir ibn `Abdullah (may Allah be please with him) said:
I attended the `Eid Prayer along with the Messenger of Allah; he started with the prayer, before the sermon, without an Adhan or an Iqamah. Then, he stood up leaning on Bilal, commanded (people to) fear Allah and encouraged obedience to Him. He admonished the men and exhorted them, and then moved towards the women.
When he reached the women place, he admonished and exhorted them and said, “Give out charities, for most of you are the fuel of Hellfire“.
Hence, an ordinary, dark-cheeked woman stood up and asked, “Why is that, O Messenger of Allah?”
He replied, “Because you complain much and show ingratitude to your spouses“.
So, they started giving out their jewelry in charity, throwing their earrings and rings in Bilal’s garment.[6]
7. Asma’ bint Yazid (may Allah be pleased with her) narrated:
One day, the Messenger of Allah talked to us about Ad-Dhajjal (Anti-Christ), and then a woman said,
“O Messenger of Allah, I knead flour for my family and (it is so straining that) I feel about to breathe my last before it turns into a dough [meaning how weak we would be in face of Ad-Dajjal!]”.
The Prophet said,
“If he comes out while I am amongst you, I would argue with him, and if he comes out after me, then Allah will take care of every Muslim on my behalf“.[7]
8. Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated:
The Messenger of Allah said, “Perhaps a man of you tells what he did with his wife (i.e. regarding their intimacy) and a woman tells others what her husband did with her?“
An African woman stood up and said, “Yes, by Allah, O Messenger of Allah, women do that, and men do that”.
He said, “Do not do that. It is like a male devil meeting a female devil in the road and having intercourse with her whilst the people are watching“.[8]
