Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said:
‘There are seven people whom the Creator will neither look at on the Day of Qiyamah nor will He purify them, and He will make them enter Jahannam, the homosexual and his partner, the one who masturbates, the one who engages in bestiality, the one who has anal intercourse with a woman, a man who marries both a woman and her daughter, the one who fornicates with his neighbour’s wife and the one who hurts his neighbour to such a degree that he curses him.’
Is this Hadith authentic?
Answer
This is recorded by Imam Bayhaqi (rahimahullah) and others on the authority of Sayyiduna Anas (radiyallahu’anhu) with a weak chain.
Shaykh ‘Abdullah Siddique Al-Ghumari (rahimahullah) -a renowned recent Moroccon Scholar- has cited additional support for this chain which further strengthens it.
Furthermore, Imam Ibn Jarir Tabari (rahimahullah), after citing another weak narration from Sayyiduna ‘Ali (radiyallahu’anhu) with very similar wordings to this one states:
‘…However, its meanings have been reported [and supported] in other Hadiths from Rasulullah (sallallahu’alayhi wasallam) with different wordings.’
This statement of Imam Tabari (rahimahullah) is to assure one, that the narration in question is suitable, despite the weakness of the chain for this version.
