TEARING OF CLOTHES

1705

“Abu Musa fell ill and became unconscious. His head rested in the lap of one of the women in his family. She cried out in a loud voice. When Abu Musa recovered consciousness he said, ‘I detest what the Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, detested. He detested a woman who cried out aloud, shaved her head, or tore at her clothes.’"

Bukhari and Muslim with a chain up to Abu Burdah who related that the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said this.
