حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا أَبَانُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ ح وَحَدَّثَنِي إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ وَاللَّفْظُ لَهُ أَخْبَرَنَا حَبَّانُ بْنُ هِلاَلٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبَانٌ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى أَنَّ زَيْدًا حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّ أَبَا سَلاَّمٍ حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّ أَبَا مَالِكٍ الأَشْعَرِيَّ حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ:

«أَرْبَعٌ فِي أُمَّتِي مِنْ أَمْرِ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ لاَ يَتْرُكُونَهُنَّ: الْفَخْرُ فِي الأَحْسَابِ، وَالطَّعْنُ فِي الأَنْسَابِ، وَالاِسْتِسْقَاءُ بِالنُّجُومِ، وَالنِّيَاحَةُ». وَقَالَ: «النَّائِحَةُ إِذَا لَمْ تَتُبْ قَبْلَ مَوْتِهَا، تُقَامُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَعَلَيْهَا سِرْبَالٌ مِنْ قَطِرَانٍ، وَدِرْعٌ مِنْ جَرَبٍ».

The Prophet ﷺ said: "There are four practices from the affairs of the Jahiliyyah among my Ummah that they will not abandon: boasting of ancestry, disparaging lineages, seeking rain through the stars, and wailing over the dead." He also said: "If the wailing woman does not repent before her death, she will be raised on the Day of Resurrection wearing a garment of tar and a coat of scabies."
