Is it permissible to cite the Hadith: "Two types of people from the dwellers of Hell whom I have not seen: men who have whips like the tails of oxen with which they beat people, and women who are clothed yet naked, inclining [to evil] and enticing [others to evil], their heads like the humps of camels; they will not enter Paradise nor smell its fragrance" to admonish sisters who wear tight clothes, and what is the interpretation of the Hadith: "Paradise is forbidden for an habitual drunkard, one who disobeys his parents, and the Dayyuth who approves of evil [acts] among his family"?
The hadith is a fundamental principle in warning against the display of women's adornment (tabarruj). Enjoining what is right and forbidding what is wrong is among the best forms of righteousness, and it should be done with wisdom and good admonition. As for the second hadith, some scholars interpreted it as an exaggeration or as referring to those who deem such actions permissible. The اہل السنة (People of the Sunnah) hold that "faith" here means complete faith, as in the hadith: "The fornicator does not commit fornication while he is a believer." Such a hadith is interpreted to mean that one will not enter Paradise with that characteristic until it is purified through repentance, punishment, or forgiveness.
