حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ قَالَ: نَا أَبُو مَعْشَرٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ، فِي قَوْلِهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ: { إِنَّمَا حَرَّمَ رَبِّيَ الْفَوَاحِشَ مَا ظَهَرَ مِنْهَا وَمَا بَطَنَ } - قَالَ: مَا ظَهَرَ، كَانُوا يَمْشُونَ حَوْلَ الْبَيْتِ عُرَاةً، وَمَا بَطَنَ الزِّنَا .
Muhammad bin Qais, may Allah have mercy on him, regarding the statement of Allah the Exalted: ﴿إِنَّمَا حَرَّمَ رَبِّيَ الْفَوَاحِشَ مَا ظَهَرَ مِنْهَا وَمَا بَطَنَ﴾ said: «مَا ظَهَرَ» That is, the apparent indecency refers to the fact that they used to circumambulate the House of Allah naked, and «مَا بَطَنَ» that is, the hidden indecency refers to adultery.
