Bayhaqi 3238 — Those who held that the thigh is not awrah

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الْحَسَنِ عَلِيُّ بْنُ عُمَرَ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مَهْدِيٍّ الْحَافِظُ بِبَغْدَادَ، أَخْبَرَنَا الْقَاضِي الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، وَعَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ نَصْرٍ، قَالَا: ثنا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، ثنا ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ، ثنا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ صُهَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ غَزَا خَيْبَرَ قَالَ: فَصَلَّيْنَا عِنْدَهَا صَلَاةَ الْغَدَاةِ بِغَلَسٍ فَرَكِبَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَرَكِبَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ وَأَنَا رَدِيفُ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ فَأَجْرَى نَبِيُّ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي زِقَاقِ خَيْبَرَ وَإِنَّ رُكْبَتِي لَتَمَسُّ فَخِذَ نَبِيِّ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ثُمَّ حَسَرَ الْإِزَارَ عَنْ فَخَذِهِ حَتَّى إِنِّي لَأَنْظُرُ إِلَى بَيَاضِ فَخِذِ نَبِيِّ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَلَمَّا دَخَلَ الْقَرْيَةَ قَالَ: " اللهُ أَكْبَرُ خَرِبَتْ خَيْبَرُ، إِنَّا إِذَا نَزَلْنَا بِسَاحَةِ قَوْمٍ فَسَاءَ صَبَاحُ الْمُنْذَرِينَ " وَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ بِطُولِهِ رَوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ فِي الصَّحِيحِ، عَنْ يَعْقُوبَ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بِهَذَا اللَّفْظِ، وَأَخْرَجَهُ مُسْلِمٌ عَنْ زُهَيْرِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ ابْنِ عُلَيَّةَ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ قَالَ: وَانْحَسَرَ الْإِزَارُ عَنْ فَخِذِ نَبِيِّ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَرَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، فَقَالَ فِي الْحَدِيثِ: فَانْكَشَفَ فَخِذَهُ.
(a) It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) went out to fight at Khaybar. We prayed the dawn prayer near Khaybar while it was still dark. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and Abu Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him) mounted, and I was riding behind Abu Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) made his mount run through the lanes of Khaybar, and meanwhile my knee kept touching his thigh. Then he moved the waist-wrapper away from his thigh, and I could see the whiteness and brightness of his thigh. When he (peace and blessings be upon him) entered the settlement of Khaybar, he said: "Allah is the Greatest! Khaybar is ruined." Then he said: "When we descend upon the courtyard of a people, evil is the morning of those who were warned." And he narrated the hadith in full.
(b) In Sahih Muslim it says that the waist-wrapper slipped from his (peace and blessings be upon him) thigh.
And in the narration of Musnad Ahmad it says that his thigh became uncovered.
