It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) took the pledge from women, he made an agreement with them that they would not wail (lament loudly for the dead). Some women said: O Messenger of Allah! Some women had helped us in wailing during the time of ignorance; can we help them in Islam? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: In Islam, there is neither such help, nor shighar, nor ‘aqr, nor jalb, nor janb, and whoever commits looting is not from among us.
