Ibn Umar (May Allah be pleased with them) said: The Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) said, O women folk! You should give charity and be diligent in seeking Allahs forgiveness because I have seen (i.e., on the Night of the Ascension to the highest heavens) that dwellers of the Hell are women. A woman amongst them said: Why is it that the majority of the dwellers of Hell are women? The Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) replied, You curse frequently and are ungrateful to your husbands. In spite of your lacking in wisdom and failing in religion, you are depriving the wisest of men of their intelligence. Upon this the woman asked: What is the deficiency in our wisdom and in our religion? He (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) replied, Your lack of wisdom can be well judged from the fact that the evidence of two women is equal to that one man. You do not offer Salat (prayer) for some days and you do not fast (the whole of) Ramadan sometimes, it is a deficiency in religion.[Muslim]. [Riyad as-Salihin, Chp: 20, No. 1879]
