Detestable Matters for Women

1- عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ النَّوْفَلِيِّ عَنِ السَّكُونِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ إِنَّ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) نَهَى عَنِ الْقَنَازِعِ وَالْقُصَصِ وَنَقْشِ الْخِضَابِ عَلَى الرَّاحَةِ وَقَالَ إِنَّمَإ؛ هَلَكَتْ نِسَاءُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ قِبَلِ الْقُصَصِ وَنَقْشِ الْخِضَابِ.
1. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from af-Nawfafiy from af-Sakuniy who has said the following: “Abu ‘ Abd Allah عليه السلام, has said that ’Amir al-Mu’minin عليه السلام, prohibited women from forming their hairs in raised portion at different parts of the head and hanging a part of their hairs on the forehead, drawings of dyes on their palms, saying that Israelite women were destroyed because of hanging hairs on their forehead and drawings of dyes on their palms.”’
