How can one respond to someone who cites the ḥadīth, "Gabriel came to me and gave me the glad tidings that whoever dies from your nation without associating anything with Allah shall enter Paradise"—even if he commits adultery or theft—to contradict other texts, such as the ḥadīth concerning plucking eyebrows (namṣ) and the ḥadīth regarding the interruption of prayer by a woman, a donkey, or a dog, claiming that Aisha objected to the latter? And are the aforementioned ḥadīth authentic?

The curse on women who pluck their eyebrows does not prevent their entry into Paradise. The curse here signifies temporary expulsion and removal from Allah's mercy, or the punishment that a disobedient person deserves. However, monotheists will not remain eternally in Hellfire; rather, they will be purified therein and then emerge from it by the grace and mercy of Allah and the intercession of intercessors. This curse is an indication that plucking eyebrows is a major sin. The curse may be lifted by sincere repentance or by the presence of reasons that prevent entry into Hellfire, such as expiating good deeds and the intercession of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him. Indeed, the Ahl al-Sunnah wal-Jama'ah believe that the ultimate destiny of a monotheist is Paradise, even if they are punished in Hellfire for their disobedience; their eventual outcome is to exit it and enter Paradise.
