Women who are Dressed; but Naked and Those who Torture Others

 To display charm, walk around half-naked, shamelessness in dressing and not covering up are factors that spread corruption and immorality. Hence, Allah commands us to cover and adopt modesty.

The Prophet salla alayhi wa sallam informed us that women that display their adornment and walk half-naked are among the people fo the Fire, just as oppressors who torture and beat people with batons and whips are. The Prophet salla alayhi wa sallam mentioned these two types of peole in the following hadith:

´´I have not seen two types (of people) amongst the denizens of Hell: the first are people who wield whips like the tail of an ox with which they flog people. (The second one) are the women who would be naked despite being dressed, who are seduced (to wrong paths) and seduce other with their hair high like humps of bukht camel. These women will not enter Paradise and tehy will not perceive its fragrance, although its fragrance can be perceived from such distance (from great distance).´´140

Bukht is the plural of bukhtiyyah which is a name given to a particular camel that has a long neck and two humps.

His statement: ´´The first are people who wield ships like the tail of an ox with which they flog people.´´ The blameworthy flogging is that of the unjust who beat without due right. As for shipping with due right; such a flogging someone who has erred, or carrying out legal punishment of the Shari´ah, then there is nothing wrong with these. Allah says:

´´The woman and the man guilty of illegal sexual intercourse, flog each of them with a hundred stripes.´´ (An-Noor: 2)

Salvation

 None will be saved on the Day of Resurrection except he who used to worship alah alone with Whom there is no associate. As for the other gods, they will lead their adherents into the Fire.

Voluntary Fasting

 Fasting is one of the major acts of worship with which Allah redeems the fasting person from the Fire. The Prophet salla alayhi wa sallam said: ´´Fasting is a shield against the Fire (of Hell) just like the shield one of you would use during fighting.´´80 The supererogatory fasting has its virtue. The Prophet salla alayhi wa sallam said: ´´He who observes fast for a day in the path of Allah, He will remove his face from the Hell due to (the fast of) that day to the extent of seventy years.´ distance.´´81 The phrase ´in the path of Allah´ could either mean fasting a day sincerely, intending the pleasure of Allah; or fasting in the course of a military expedition in the path of Allah.

Backbiter and Tale-Bearer

 A backbiter is the individual who indugles in backiting which involves mentioning about your brother that which he would detest. The tale-bearer is the person who varries bad tale among the people in order to cause disaffection among them. These sins cause pervading tribulations, and enormous corruption also stems from them. Their perpetrators are among the worst of people and due to their capricious tongue, they speak as dictated by their whims and desires.  Their situation at the time of resurrection will be appalling as the Prophet salla alayhi wa sallam mentioned, Whoever eats the flesh of his brother in the world (i.e. bacjbites), he will be presented to him on the Day of Resurrection and it will be said to him, Eat his dead as you have eaten him alive. He would eat him and he would scowl and scream.
