Sunan Abi Dawud 571 (Book 2, Hadith 181) #20862
Respecting Women's Privacy

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) suggested that it would be better to reserve a door for women, and Ibn Umar followed this suggestion until his death.

Ibn 'Umar reported the Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) as saying : if we reserve this door for women (it would be better). Nafi' said: Ibn 'Umar did not enter through it( the door) till he died. Abu Dawud said: This tradition has been narrated though a different chain of transmitters by 'Umar. And this is more correct.
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَعْمَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏ "‏ لَوْ تَرَكْنَا هَذَا الْبَابَ لِلنِّسَاءِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ نَافِعٌ فَلَمْ يَدْخُلْ مِنْهُ ابْنُ عُمَرَ حَتَّى مَاتَ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ رَوَاهُ إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ عَنْ نَافِعٍ قَالَ قَالَ عُمَرُ وَهَذَا أَصَحُّ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks of the importance of respecting women's privacy. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) suggested that it would be better to reserve a door for women, so they could enter and leave without being seen by men. This is an example of how the Prophet Muhammad respected the rights of women in his society. He wanted them to have their own space where they could feel safe and secure from any unwanted attention or harassment. Furthermore, Ibn Umar followed this suggestion until his death, showing us how important it was for him as well. This hadith teaches us that we should always respect the privacy of others, especially when it comes to women. We should never intrude on someone else's space or make them feel uncomfortable in any way.
