bayhaqi:13497Abū al-Ḥasan ʿAlī b. Aḥmad b. ʿAbdān > Aḥmad b. ʿUbayd > Abū ʿImrān al-Jawnī > Muḥammad b. Rumḥ > Ibn Lahīʿah > ʿIyāḍ b. ʿAbdullāh > Ibrāhīm b. ʿUbayd b. Rifāʿah al-Anṣārī Yukhbir > Abīh Aẓunnuh > Asmāʾ b. ʿUmays > Dakhal Rasūl

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ visited Aisha bint Abi Bakr, who was with her sister Asma bint Abi Bakr. Aisha was wearing loose, wide-sleeved Syrian robes. When the Prophet ﷺ looked at her, he stood up and left. Aisha told her sister, "Move away, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ has seen something he dislikes." So she moved away and then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered. Aisha asked him, "Why did you stand up?" He replied, "Did you not see her appearance? It is not appropriate for a Muslim woman to reveal more than this and this." Then he took his hands and covered the back of his hands with them, so that only his fingers were visible from his hand. Then he placed his hands on his cheeks, so that only his face was visible. This narration has a weak chain of transmission.

[Machine] She said: "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered upon Aisha bint Abu Bakr one day, and her sister Asma was with her, wearing loose and wide garments. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ looked at her, he stood up and left. Aisha said to her: "Move away, for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ has seen something from you that he dislikes." So she opened up and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered. Aisha asked him: "Why did you stand up?" He replied: "Have you not seen her appearance? It is not appropriate for a Muslim woman to show more than this." Then he took his garment and covered his hands' backs with it, so that nothing could be seen from his hands except his fingers. Then he placed his hands on his cheeks, so that nothing could be seen except his face."
