8.12 What is said about the thigh
٨۔١٢ باب مَا يُذْكَرُ فِي الْفَخِذِ
[Machine] It is narrated by Ibn Abbas, Jarhad, and Muhammad ibn Jahsh from the Prophet ﷺ , "The thigh is a private (awrah)." Anas reported that the Prophet ﷺ uncovered his thigh. The narration of Anas is more reliable, and the narration of Jarhad is more appropriate until their differences are resolved. Abu Musa said that the Prophet ﷺ covered his knees when entering upon Uthman. Zaid ibn Thabit said that Allah revealed to His Messenger ﷺ and his thigh came upon my thigh, and it became heavy upon me to the point that I feared my thigh may break.
وَيُرْوَى عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ وَجَرْهَدٍ وَمُحَمَّدِ بْنِ جَحْشٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ: «الْفَخِذُ عَوْرَةٌ». وَقَالَ أَنَسٌ حَسَرَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ عَنْ فَخِذِهِ. وَحَدِيثُ أَنَسٍ أَسْنَدُ، وَحَدِيثُ جَرْهَدٍ أَحْوَطُ حَتَّى يُخْرَجَ مِنِ اخْتِلاَفِهِمْ. وَقَالَ أَبُو مُوسَى غَطَّى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ رُكْبَتَيْهِ حِينَ دَخَلَ عُثْمَانُ. وَقَالَ زَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَلَى رَسُولِهِ ﷺ وَفَخِذُهُ عَلَى فَخِذِي فَثَقُلَتْ عَلَيَّ حَتَّى خِفْتُ أَنْ تُرَضَّ فَخِذِي.
