Question
One of the group of people who will be in the shade of Allah's Arasy
during Qiyamah is men who says no for the sake of Allah to a woman who
invites them to adultery. Does this apply to women as well? I heard
maybe not because women are easier to control their desires than men?
Is this true?
Answer
Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds; and may His blessings and
peace be upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon all his Family and
Companions.
The reward that is mentioned in the Hadith, for the one who refuses
the invitation of a woman of noble birth for having illicit
intercourse with her, saying: "I fear Allah", is the same as the woman
when a handsome man of noble birth calls her for illicit intercourse,
and she refuses only due to the fear of Allah while she has no
hindrance for approving his call, she gets the same reward.
Ibn Hajarsaid in "Fath al-Bari":The Hadith )Allah will give shade to
seven…( is not peculiar to men rather it addresses both men and women.
But if "just ruler" refers to the ruler of a government then it does
not cover women. If the words do not imply the ruler of a government
then the words cover women too; for example, if a woman has many
children and she deals justly with them she will deserve the same
reward. Another quality that is mentioned in the HadithA man whose
heart is attached to the mosquedoes not apply to women since it is
better for women to perform their prayers in their houses. The other
qualities are common for men and women.
Allah knows best.
