Why did Allah specifically curse men and express His wrath towards women in the verse of "Li'an" (mutual imprecation)?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Because a man distances himself from his family, wife, and child, the curse (la'n) — which means banishment or being cast away — is appropriate for him. And because a woman angers her husband, her family, and her Lord, the expression of wrath or anger (ghadab) is appropriate for her.
