Sunan Abi Dawud: Book 2, Hadith 178

‘Abd Allah b. ‘Umar reported the prophet (ﷺ) as saying; Allow women to visit the mosque at night. A son of his (Bilal) said; I swear by Allah, we shall certainly not allow them because they will defraud. I swear by Allah, we shall not allow them. He (Ibn ‘Umar) abused him and became angry at him and said : I tell you that the Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) said: Allow them; yet you say; we shall not allow them.

حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، وَأَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، قَالَ قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏”‏ ائْذَنُوا لِلنِّسَاءِ إِلَى الْمَسَاجِدِ بِاللَّيْلِ ‏”‏ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ ابْنٌ لَهُ وَاللَّهِ لاَ نَأْذَنُ لَهُنَّ فَيَتَّخِذْنَهُ دَغَلاً وَاللَّهِ لاَ نَأْذَنُ لَهُنَّ ‏.‏ قَالَ فَسَبَّهُ وَغَضِبَ وَقَالَ أَقُولُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏”‏ ائْذَنُوا لَهُنَّ ‏”‏ ‏.‏ وَتَقُولُ لاَ نَأْذَنُ لَهُنَّ

Sunan Abi Dawud: Book 2, Hadith 178

 
This hadith is from the Sunan Abi Dawud collection of hadiths. Sunan Abi Dawud is a cornerstone of Sunni Islamic scholarship and one of the six canonical hadith collections. It was meticulously compiled by the renowned scholar Abu Dawud al-Sijistani in the 9th century. The work contains over 4,800 narrations detailing the sayings, actions, and approvals of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). These are systematically organized into thematic books focusing on practical aspects of faith, including prayer, purification, fasting, charity, marriage, and civil justice. Its authority is derived from the compiler’s critical methodology, where he often annotated the reliability of each hadith, prioritizing those with strong, authentic chains of transmission for legal matters.
