Sahih Muslim 1568a — The Worst Earnings

Summary of Sahih Muslim Hadith 1568a

This Hadith about the worst earnings names three items: the earning of a prostitute, the price of a dog, and the earning of a cupper. The wording is strong, so the explanation should stay close to it. The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم is teaching that income is not judged only by whether money changes hands. Some earnings carry blame in the Hadith. People searching “worst earning hadith” or “earning of a cupper hadith” often want to know what the narration actually says. This text gives the list clearly. It reminds a Muslim to look at the moral state of income and to avoid treating every payment as good simply because it brings money.
