Chapter on the Blameworthy Traits and Characteristics of Women

Hadith.4371 - The Messenger of Allah (swt) (peace be upon him and his family) said: "I have not seen those who are weak in faith and deficient in intellect more capable of overwhelming a man of reason than you (women)."

Hadith.4375 - The Messenger of Allah (swt) (peace be upon him and his family) passed by a group of women, stopped, and said: "O assembly of women! I have not seen those who are deficient in intellect and religion more capable of taking away the reasoning of men of understanding than you. Indeed, I have observed that you will form the majority of the inhabitants of Hell on the Day of Judgment. So, seek closeness to Allah (swt), the Almighty and Glorious, as much as you can." One of the women asked: "O Messenger of Allah (swt), what is the deficiency in our religion and intellect?" He (sw) replied: "As for the deficiency in your religion, it is due to the menstruation that afflicts you, during which one of you may remain for a period, as Allah (swt) wills, without praying or fasting. And as for the deficiency in your intellect, it is because the testimony of a woman is equivalent to half the testimony of a man."

Hadith.4376 - The Messenger of Allah (swt) (peace be upon him and his family) said: "Shall I not inform you about the worst of your women?" They said: "Yes, O Messenger of Allah (swt), tell us." He said: "The worst of your women is the one who is humble and submissive with her family but domineering and arrogant with her husband. She is barren, spiteful, and does not refrain from committing indecency. She flaunts herself when her husband is absent but is reserved and guarded when he is present. She does not listen to his words nor obey his commands. When he is alone with her, she behaves stubbornly like a difficult mount that resists being ridden. She neither accepts his apology nor forgives his faults."
