Summary
No such narration about a nagging or shouting wife becoming like a barking dog was found in any reliable hadith collection. A different report in al-Suyuti's Lubab al-Hadis mentions a woman who wails over the dead barking like a dog, but it is given without a chain of narration. The similar report by al-Tabarani is weak because of the narrator Sulaiman bin Daud al-Yamami. The ruling draws a lesson that spouses should understand, respect and treat each other well for a harmonious household.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Setelah melakukan carian maka tidak dijumpai dalam mana-mana karya hadis yang muktabar berkenaan riwayat yang menyebutkan bahawa "perempuan yang suka membebel dan suka menjerit di hadapan suami, pada hari akhirat nanti seperti anjing yang menggonggong".
