حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَی بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزُ بْنُ حَکِيمٍ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ جَدِّي قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ عَوْرَاتُنَا مَا نَأْتِي مِنْهَا وَمَا نَذَرُ قَالَ احْفَظْ عَوْرَتَکَ إِلَّا مِنْ زَوْجَتِکَ أَوْ مَا مَلَکَتْ يَمِينُکَ فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ يَکُونُ مَعَ الرَّجُلِ قَالَ إِنْ اسْتَطَعْتَ أَنْ لَا يَرَاهَا أَحَدٌ فَافْعَلْ قُلْتُ وَالرَّجُلُ يَکُونُ خَالِيًا قَالَ فَاللَّهُ أَحَقُّ أَنْ يُسْتَحْيَا مِنْهُ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَی هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ وَجَدُّ بَهْزٍ اسْمُهُ مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ حَيْدَةَ الْقُشَيْرِيُّ وَقَدْ رَوَی الْجُرَيْرِيُّ عَنْ حَکِيمِ بْنِ مُعَاوِيَةَ وَهُوَ وَالِدُ بَهْزٍ
جامع ترمذی · Hadith 2769
Narrated Bahz bin Hakim: My father narrated to me from my grandfather, who said: 'I said: O Messenger of Allah! Regarding our 'Awrah, what of it must we cover and what of it may we leave? He said: Protect your 'Awrah except from your wife or what your right hand possesses. ' He said: What about a man with another man? He said: If you are able to not let anyone see it, then do so. I said: What about a man when he is alone? He said: Allah is most deserving of being shy from Him.
