(44) Chapter: The prohibition of striking one's checks, tearing one's garment and calling with the calls of Jahilliyyah
باب تَحْرِيمِ ضَرْبِ الْخُدُودِ وَشَقِّ الْجُيُوبِ وَالدُّعَاءِ بِدَعْوَى الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ
It is narrated on the authority of Abdullah b. Mas’ud that the Prophet observed:
He is not one of us (one among the Ummah of Islam) who beat the cheeks or tore the front opening of the shirt or uttered the slogans of (the days of) Jahiliya (ignorance). Ibn Numair and Abu Bakr said (instead of the word” au” (or) it is” wa” [and] the words are) and tore and uttered (the slogans) of Jahiliya without” alif”.
