MORE EXAMPLES OF MUHAMMAD’S FOUL MOUTH

In this post I will share some more examples of the foul mouth of both Muhammad and his companions, showing that neither he nor they were above insulting their opponents in the most graphic and vulgar manner.

For instance, Muhammad bluntly and explicitly told people who boasted in their lineage to bite their fathers’ penises!

41 Gestures

(436) Chapter

‘Ubayy ibn Damura said, “I saw with Ubay a man who was attributing himself (in lineage) with an attribution of Jahiliyyah, so Ubay told him to bite his father’s male organ and did not speak figuratively (i.e. was explicit). So his companions looked at him. He said, ‘It appears that you disapprove of it.’ Then he said, ‘I will never show apprehension to anyone with regards to this. Verily, I heard the Prophet say, “Whomever attributes himself (in lineage) with an attribution of Jahiliyyah, then tell him to bite his father’s male organ AND DO NOT SPEAK FIGURATIVELY (i.e. be explicit).”’”

Grade: SAHIH (Al-Albani)

Reference: Al-Adab Al-Mufrad 963

In-book reference: Book 41, Hadith 12

English translation: Book 41, Hadith 963 (sunnah.com https://sunnah.com/adab:963)

And:

Ubayy b. Ka‘b told that he heard God’s messenger say, “If anyone proudly asserts his descent in the manner of the pre-Islamic people, tell him to bite his father’s penis, AND DO NOT USE A EUPHEMISM.” It is transmitted in Sarah [sic] as-sunna. (Mishkat Al Masabih, English Translation With Explanatory Notes By Dr. James Robson [Sh. Muhammad Ashraf Publishers, Booksellers & Exporters, Lahore, Pakistan, Reprinted 1994], Volume II, Book XXIV – General Behaviour, Chapter XIII. Boasting and Party-Spirit, p. 1021; bold and capital emphasis mine)

{Sidenote: Sarah is a misspelling for Sharh, so that it should have read Sharh as-sunna.}

Muhammad wasn’t the only one to use such foul and vulgar language in his Quran. His companions did as well:

… Then ‘Urwah said: “Muhammad, tell me: if you extirpate your tribesmen, have you ever heard of any of the Arabs who destroyed his own race before you? And if the contrary comes to pass, by God I see both prominent people and rabble who are likely to flee and leave you.” Abu Bakr said, “Go suck the clitoris of al-Lat!” – al-Lat was the idol of Thaqif, which they used to worship – “Would we flee and leave him?” … (The History of al-Tabari – The Victory of Islam, translated by Michael Fishbein [State University of New York Press (SUNY), Albany 1997], Volume VIII (8), p. 76; emphasis mine)

The example of Muhammad and his followers led Muslim scholars and jurists to conclude that referring to the private parts of an opponent in order to mock and humiliate them:

And in the words of Abu Bakr As-Sideeq to ‘Urwah: “Suck Al-Lat’s clitoris![2] – there is a permissibility of speaking plainly the name of the private parts if there is some benefit to be gained thereby, just as he [Muhammad] permitted a plain response to the one who made the claims of the Jahiliyyah (i.e. claims of tribal superiority), by saying: “Bite your father’s penis!”[3] And for every situation there is a (fitting) saying. (Provisions for the Hereafter (Mukhtasar Zad Al-Ma’ad), by Imam Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah, summarized by Imam Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab At-Tamimi [Darussalam Publishers & Distributors, First Edition: September 2003], Chapter. Regarding the Story of Al-Hudaibiyyah, p. 383; source; emphasis and words within brackets mine)

[3] Narrated by Ahmad, on the authority of Ubayy Ibn Ka’b. (Ibid.)

So much for Muhammad being a beacon of morality and a role model for humanity.
