Arabic text

1460 - حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ آدَمَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحُ بْنُ عُبَادَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنْ حَبِيبِ بْنِ أَبِي ثَابِتٍ، عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ ضَمْرَةَ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ: قَالَ لِيَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَا تُبْرِزْ فَخِذَكَ، وَلَا تَنْظُرْ إِلَى فَخِذِ حَيٍّ، وَلَا مَيِّتٍ»

Commentary

Shaikh Albānī gave preference to the view that the thigh is a part of the body which must be kept covered. Imām Tirmidhi declared the Hadīth 'The thigh is from the part of the body which must be covered' as a Hasan (Good) Hadīth. (Jāmi' At-Tirmidhi: 2795)
