Is the hadith: "Dye your hair profusely, and lower your voices, and do not be excessively loud," authentic?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The aforementioned has a weak chain of transmission, and its wording is: "O women of the Ansar, dye your hands profusely with henna, and circumcise but do not overdo it, for it is more pleasing to your husbands. And beware of ingratitude for small blessings." This was narrated by Anas, and Al-Bukhari said concerning one of its narrators that he is "munkar al-hadith" (has objectionable Hadith). Female circumcision has been authentically narrated through other chains, and scholars have various opinions on it, which can be reviewed in Fatwas No. 32219 and 52009.
