و حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ کَانَ يَدْخُلُ عَلَی أَزْوَاجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُخَنَّثٌ فَکَانُوا يَعُدُّونَهُ مِنْ غَيْرِ أُولِي الْإِرْبَةِ قَالَ فَدَخَلَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَوْمًا وَهُوَ عِنْدَ بَعْضِ نِسَائِهِ وَهُوَ يَنْعَتُ امْرَأَةً قَالَ إِذَا أَقْبَلَتْ أَقْبَلَتْ بِأَرْبَعٍ وَإِذَا أَدْبَرَتْ أَدْبَرَتْ بِثَمَانٍ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَلَا أَرَی هَذَا يَعْرِفُ مَا هَاهُنَا لَا يَدْخُلَنَّ عَلَيْکُنَّ قَالَتْ فَحَجَبُوهُ
صحیح مسلم · Hadith 5691
A'isha reported that a eunuch used to come to the wives of Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) and they did not And anything objectionable in his visit considering him to be a male without any sexual desire. Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) one day came as he was sitting with some of his wives and he was busy in describing the bodily characteristics of a lady and saying: As the comes in front tour folds appear on her front side and as she turns her back eight folds appear on the back side. Thereupon Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: I me that he knows these things; do not, therefore. allow him to cater. She ( A'isha) said: Then they began to observe veil from him.
