Hadith 870

Narrated Jabir (RA): We were with the Prophet (ﷺ) on an expedition. Then, when we arrived at al-Madinah and were about to enter he said, "Wait so that you may enter by night - i.e. in the evening in order that the woman with disheveled hair may comb it and the woman whose husband has been away may shave her pubic hairs (getting ready for her husband)." [Agreed upon]. A narration by al-Bukhari has: "When one of you has been away from home for a long time, he must not come to his family during the night."
