A woman reported,

Among the things the Messenger of Allah ﷺ required of us in matters of righteous conduct, in which we were not to disobey him, were that we should not scratch our faces, cry out in lamentation, tear our garments, or let our hair down loose.

عن امرأة من المبايعات قالت

كان فيما أخذ علينا رسول الله ﷺ في المعروف الذي أخذ علينا: أن لا نعصيه فيه، أن لا نخمش وجها، ولا ندعو ويلا، ولا نشق جيبا، وأن لا ننشر شعرا.
