3561 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، وَأَبُو أُسَامَةَ، عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ عَمْرَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ: " نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ لِبْسَتَيْنِ: اشْتِمَالِ الصَّمَّاءِ، وَالِاحْتِبَاءِ فِي ثَوْبٍ وَاحِدٍ، وَأَنْتَ مُفْضٍ فَرْجَكَ "

[1] There are various interpretations of this manner of dress. Ishtimâl is derived from Shaml; to wrap, and its mention preceded under no. 3552. Sammâ' means solid, so it is literally: 'a solid or tight wrap.' Most of the scholars say that it is to wear one garment draped in a manner that one cannot take the hands out of it. For this, see Fathul-Bârî, Sharh Muslim by Nawawi, Nailul-Awtâr by Shawkânî, and An-Nihâyah. Others say it is to wear only one wrap which he covers himself with, but he puts one of its edges over one shoulder, thereby exposing his private parts. Ibn Athîr and Abu 'Ubaid mentioned this second definition as the view of the Fuqahâ'.

[2] Ihtibâ' is from Habâ, to sit with one's legs drawn up while wrapped in a garment, the prohibition is of doing such in a manner that the private parts are exposed.
