2803. Abū Al-Maliḥ Al-Hudhālī narrated that some women from the inhabitants of Hims, or from the inhabitants of Ash-Shām entered upon 'Āishah, so she said: “Are you those whose women enter the Hammamāt? I heard the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ saying: ‘No woman removes her garments in other than the house of her husband except that she has torn the screen between herself and her Lord.’” (Hasan)
[Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan.

Commentary
Allāh did not allow a woman to expose herself and her modesty to anyone other than her husband; therefore if she takes off her clothes at any other place she will break the law of Allāh. In the case of a woman taking a bath in a bathroom, if it does not have a proper and decent arrangement of privacy, then she is not allowed to take a bath in the state of nakedness.
