Women And Ornamentation

Tradition n. 330

قالَ رَسُولُ الله صلی الله عليه و آله و سلم:

قَو لُ الرَّجُلِ لِل مَر أَةِ إنِّي أُحِبُّكِ لايَذ هَبُ مِن قَل بِها أَبَدًا.

The Holy Prophet (S) said: “A man's word telling his wife: 'I love you' never will quit her heart.”

Tradition n. 331

سُئِلَ الإمامُ الباقِرُ عليه السلام عَنِ القَرامِلِ الَّتِي تَضَعُها النِّساءُ فِي رُؤُوسِهِنَّ يَصِل نَهُ بِشُعُورِهِنَّ فَقالَ: لا بَأسَ عَلَى المَرأَةِ بِما تَزَيَّنَت بِهِ لِزَو جِها.

Imam al-Baqir (‘a) said: “It does not matter what a woman ornaments herself with for her husband.”

Tradition n. 332

قالَ أَميرُ المُؤمنينَ عَلِيٌّ عليه السلام :

نَهى رَسُولُ اللهِ صلی الله عليه و آله و سلم أَن تَتَزَيَّنَ لِغَيرِ زَوجِها فَاِن فَعَلَـت كانَ حَقًّا عَلَى اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أَن يُح رِقَها بِالنّارِ.

Imam Amir al-Mu’minin ‘Ali (‘a) said that the Prophet (S) prohibited the ornamentation of a woman for someone else other than her husband, and said:

“Thus, if she does so, it is the right of Allah, Almighty and Glorious, to burn her in Hell.” (Unless she repents.)

كُلُّ مَن اِش تَدَّ لَنا حُبًّا اِش تَدَّ لِلنِساءِ حُبًّا.

Imam as-Sadiq (‘a) said: “Everyone who intensifies love for us (Ahl Al-Bayt) intensifies love for his wife, too.”

Tradition n. 334

قالَ النَّبِيّ صلی الله عليه و آله و سلم:

خَيرُ نِسائِكُم اَلعَفِيفَةُ الغَلِمَةُ.
