"No doubt! They did fold up their breasts, that they may hide from Him. Surely, even when they cover themselves with their garments, He knows what they conceal and what they reveal. Verily, He is the All-Knower of the (innermost secrets) of the breasts." (V.11:5)

English translation

4682. Narrated Muḥammad bin 'Abbād bin Ja'far : Ibn 'Abbās recited : "No doubt! They did fold up their breasts..." I said, "O Abul 'Abbās! What is meant by, 'They did fold up their breasts?'" He said, "A man used to feel shy on having sexual relation with his wife, or on answering the call of nature (in an open space), so this Verse was revealed : "No doubt! They did fold up their breasts."

Arabic text

4682 - حَدَّثَنِي إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُوسَى، أَخْبَرَنَا هِشَامٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، وَأَخْبَرَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبَّادِ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ، أَنَّ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ، قَرَأَ: أَلاَ إِنَّهُمْ تَثْنَوْنِي صُدُورُهُمْ قُلْتُ: يَا أَبَا العَبَّاسِ مَا تَثْنَوْنِي صُدُورُهُمْ؟ قَالَ: «كَانَ الرَّجُلُ يُجَامِعُ امْرَأَتَهُ فَيَسْتَحِي أَوْ يَتَخَلَّى فَيَسْتَحِي» فَنَزَلَتْ: أَلاَ إِنَّهُمْ تَثْنَوْنِي صُدُورُهُمْ
