To what extent is the prophetic hadith authentic: "If my Ummah does five things, destruction will be upon them: if cursing appears among them, and they drink alcohol, and wear silk, and take female singers, and men suffice with men and women with women"?
Al-Tabarani reported this narration with two similar wordings in "Musnad Al-Shamiyin" and "Al-Mu'jam Al-Awsat," and Al-Bayhaqi reported it in "Shu'ab Al-Iman" with the same chain of narration. This chain of narration is weak due to the weakness of "Abbad ibn Kathir Al-Ramli," who was deemed weak by a group of scholars. Al-Bayhaqi strengthened it with another chain of narration, but its pivot is around "Al-Fadl ibn Umayrah," who was deemed weak, and the narrator from him in one of the chains is "Amr ibn Al-Husayn Al-Uqayli," who is abandoned, and the narrator from him in the second chain is "Ahmad ibn Nasr Al-Buzajani," who has not been authenticated. Therefore, the conclusion is that this narration does not have a sound chain of narration.
