وعن ابْنِ مسعُودٍ رضي اللَّه عَنْهُ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّه صَلّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وسَلَّم : « لَيْسَ مِنَّا مَنْ ضَرَبَ الخُدُودَ ، وشَقَّ الجُيُوبَ ، ودَعا بِدَعْوَى الجَاهِليةِ » متفقٌ عليه .

Prohibition of Bewailing the Deceased
Ibn Mas`ud (May Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, "He who (on befalling a calamity) slaps his cheeks, tears his clothes and follows the ways and traditions of the Days of Ignorance is none of us."[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].


Commentary:
"He is none of us" here signifies that he is not following the ways of Muslims. "The ways and traditions of the Days of Ignorance" means here wailing, i.e., `Alas! my lion, my moon, my support, one whose death has rendered his children orphan etc., etc.' This is a grave sin and there is a stern warning that one who does it, is in danger of losing his Faith because by doing so one, in fact, expresses resentment against Allah's Command.
