Chapter 33 · Hot Baths (Kitab Al-Hammam)حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي. ح وحَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ بَشَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى نَحْوَهُ، عَنْ بَهْزِ بْنِ حَكِيمٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، 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، إِذَا كَانَ الْقَوْمُ بَعْضُهُمْ فِي بَعْضٍ، قَالَ: إِنِ اسْتَطَعْتَ أَنْ لَا يَرَيَنَّهَا أَحَدٌ فَلَا يَرَيَنَّهَا، قَالَ: قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، إِذَا كَانَ أَحَدُنَا خَالِيًا، قَالَ: اللَّهُ أَحَقُّ أَنْ يُسْتَحْيَا مِنْهُ مِنَ النَّاسِ .

I said: Messenger of Allah, from whom should we conceal our private parts and to whom can we show? He replied: conceal your private parts except from your wife and from whom your right hands possess (slave-girls). I then asked: Messenger of Allah, (what should we do), if the people are assembled together? He replied: If it is within your power that no one looks at it, then no one should look at it. I then asked: Messenger of Allah if one of us is alone, (what should he do)? He replied: Allah is more entitled than people that bashfulness should be shown to him.
