Hadith 1396
عَنْ بَهْزِ بْنِ حَكِيمٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ جَدِّي (مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ حَيْدَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ) قَالَ: قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ! عَوْرَاتُنَا مَا نَأْتِي مِنْهَا وَمَا نَذَرُ؟ قَالَ: ((احْفَظْ عَوْرَتَكَ إِلَّا مِنْ زَوْجَتِكَ أَوْ مَا مَلَكَتْ يَمِينُكَ)) قَالَ: قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ! فَإِذَا كَانَ الْقَوْمُ بَعْضُهُمْ فِي بَعْضٍ؟ قَالَ: ((إِنِ اسْتَطَعْتَ أَنْ لَا يَرَاهَا أَحَدٌ فَلَا يَرَيَنَّهَا)) قُلْتُ: فَإِذَا كَانَ أَحَدُنَا خَالِيًا؟ قَالَ: ((فَاللَّهُ أَحَقُّ أَنْ يُسْتَحْيَا مِنْهُ)) وَزَادَ فِي رِوَايَةٍ: وَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِيَدِهِ فَوَضَعَهَا عَلَى فَرْجِهِ
Sayyiduna Muawiyah bin Haydah (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I asked, "O Messenger of Allah! From whom among our private parts (i.e., the areas that must be covered) can we see, and from whom can we not see?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Protect your private parts from everyone except your wife and your slave woman." Muawiyah says: I asked, "O Messenger of Allah! What if people are together with each other?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If you are able that no one sees (your private parts), then let no one see them." Muawiyah says: I asked, "What if a person is alone?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: "Allah is more deserving that one should feel shy before Him." According to one narration (to explain the matter), the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) raised his hand and placed it on his private part.
Hadith 1397
عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: ((لَا يَنْظُرُ الرَّجُلُ إِلَى عَوْرَةِ الرَّجُلِ وَلَا تَنْظُرُ الْمَرْأَةُ إِلَى عَوْرَةِ الْمَرْأَةِ وَلَا يُفْضِي الرَّجُلُ إِلَى الرَّجُلِ فِي الثَّوْبِ، وَلَا تُفْضِي الْمَرْأَةُ إِلَى الْمَرْأَةِ فِي الثَّوْبِ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: A man should not look at the private parts of another man, nor should a woman look at the private parts of another woman, and a man should not lie with another man under a single garment, nor should a woman lie with another woman under a single garment.
Hadith 1398
عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((إِنَّ مُوسَى بْنَ عِمْرَانَ كَانَ إِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَدْخُلَ الْمَاءَ لَمْ يُلْقِ ثَوْبَهُ حَتَّى يُوَارِي عَوْرَتَهُ فِي الْمَاءِ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: When Musa bin Imran, peace be upon him, intended to enter the water, he would not remove his garment until he had concealed his private parts in the water.
Hadith 1399
عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ: مَا نَظَرْتُ إِلَى فَرْجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَطُّ، أَوْ مَا رَأَيْتُ فَرْجَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَطُّ
Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) says: I have never seen the private part of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).
