( أَخْبَرَنَا ) أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الْحَسَنِ: مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْجَوْهَرِيُّ، ثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ، ثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى، وَزَكَرِيَّا بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي أَبَانَ قَالَا: ثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ، ثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، حَدَّثَنِي زَيْدُ بْنُ أَسْلَمَ، عَنْ عِيَاضِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، قَالَ:
خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي أَضْحَى أَوْ فِطْرٍ إِلَى الْمُصَلَّى ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ فَقَامَ فَوَعَظَ النَّاسَ وَأَمَرَ النَّاسَ بِالصَّدَقَةِ فَقَالَ: " أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ، تَصَدَّقُوا ". ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ فَمَرَّ عَلَى النِّسَاءِ فَقَالَ: يَا مَعْشَرَ النِّسَاءِ، تَصَدَّقْنَ؛ فَإِنِّي أُرِيتُكُنَّ أَكْثَرَ أَهْلِ النَّارِ، فَقُلْنَ: وَبِمَ ذَلِكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ؟ قَالَ: " تُكْثِرْنَ اللَّعْنَ، وَتَكْفُرْنَ الْعَشِيرَ، وَمَا رَأَيْتُ مِنْ نَاقِصَاتِ عَقْلٍ وَدِينٍ أَذْهَبَ بِلُبِّ الرَّجُلِ الْحَازِمِ مِنْ إِحْدَاكُنَّ يَا مَعْشَرَ النِّسَاءِ ". فَقُلْنَ لَهُ: مَا نُقْصَانُ دِينِنَا وَعَقْلِنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ؟ قَالَ: " أَلَيْسَ شَهَادَةُ الْمَرْأَةِ مِثْلَ نِصْفِ شَهَادَةِ الرَّجُلِ ؟ ". قُلْنَ: بَلَى، قَالَ: " فَذَلِكَ مِنْ نُقْصَانِ عَقْلِهَا، أَوَلَيْسَ إِذَا حَاضَتِ الْمَرْأَةِ لَمْ تُصَلِّ وَلَمْ تَصُمْ ؟ فَذَلِكَ مِنْ نُقْصَانِ دِينِهَا

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ went out to the prayer place on the day of Aḍḥā or Fiṭr. Then he finished, stood up, and admonished the people, and he commanded the people to give charity. He said: "O people, give charity." Then he left and passed by the women and said: "O company of women, give charity, for I have been shown that you are the majority of the people of the Fire." They said: "And why is that, O Messenger of Allah?" He said: "You curse frequently and you are ungrateful to your spouse. And I have not seen any who are lacking in intellect and religion more able to take away the wits of a firm man than one of you, O company of women." They said to him: "What is the deficiency in our religion and our intellect, O Messenger of Allah?" He said: "Is not the testimony of a woman equal to half the testimony of a man?" They said: "Yes." He said: "That is from the deficiency of her intellect. And is it not the case that when a woman menstruates she does not pray and does not fast? That is from the deficiency of her religion."
