Muslim narrated from Abu Malik Al-Ash'ari that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Four matters from the affairs of Jahiliyyah (pre-Islamic ignorance) will remain in my Ummah, which they will not abandon: boasting about ancestry, slandering genealogies, seeking rain through stars, and wailing over the dead. And the wailing woman, if she does not repent before her death, will be raised on the Day of Resurrection wearing a garment of tar and a shield of scabs."
