أَخْبَرَنَا نُوحُ بْنُ حَبِيبٍ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنْ رَبَاحِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ كَلَامًا مَعْنَاهُ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ
دَخَلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَإِذَا مُخَنَّثٌ عِنْدَ بَعْضِ نِسَائِهِ وَكَانُوا يَعُدُّونَهُ مِنْ غَيْرِ أُولِي الْإِرْبَةِ فَسَمِعَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ إِنَّهَا إِذَا أَقْبَلَتْ أَقْبَلَتْ بِأَرْبَعٍ وَإِذَا أَدْبَرَتْ أَدْبَرَتْ بِثَمَانٍ يَنْعَتُ امْرَأَةً فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «أَلَا أَرَى هَذَا يَعْلَمُ مَا هَاهُنَا لَا يَدْخُلَنَّ عَلَيْكُمْ فَاحْجُبُوهُ»

✧ The Prophet ﷺ entered while a mukhannath was with some of his wives, and they used to consider him among those without desire. The Prophet ﷺ heard him describing a woman, saying: "When she approaches, she approaches with four, and when she turns away, she turns away with eight." The Prophet ﷺ said: "Do I not see that this one knows what is here? He must never enter upon you; veil him."
