English translation

3750. It was narrated from Abu Malih Al-Hudhali that some women from the people of Hims asked permission to enter upon 'Aishah. She said: "Perhaps you are among those (women) who enter bathhouses? I heard the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ say: 'Any woman who takes off her clothes anywhere but in her husband's house, has torn the screen that was between her and Allāh.'" (Hasan)

Arabic text

3750 - حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ، عَنْ أَبِي الْمَلِيحِ الْهُذَلِيِّ، أَنَّ نِسْوَةً مِنْ أَهَلْ حِمْصَ اسْتَأْذَنَّ عَلَى عَائِشَةَ، فَقَالَتْ: لَعَلَّكُنَّ مِنَ اللَّوَاتِي يَدْخُلْنَ الْحَمَّامَاتِ، سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «أَيُّمَا امْرَأَةٍ وَضَعَتْ ثِيَابَهَا فِي غَيْرِ بَيْتِ زَوْجِهَا، فَقَدْ هَتَكَتْ سِتْرَ مَا بَيْنَهَا وَبَيْنَ اللَّهِ»

Commentary

The whole body of a woman should be covered, so she is prohibited to seek any one's help in public bath house. It is better for her to have her bath in her own house.
