Meaning & Usage
01
"cuckold / spineless pimp"
A man who knows his wife or female relatives are sexually active with other men and does nothing about it — or worse, approves. The word appears in hadith literature: the Prophet reportedly said 'three shall not enter Paradise,' and one of the three is the dayyuth. It's not just a social insult but a theological condemnation with heavenly consequences.
