Sahih al-Bukhari 5822 (Book 77, Hadith 39) #5583
Prohibiting Ishtimal-as-Samma' and Sitting in an Ihtiba' Posture

SUMMARY: The Prophet forbade Ishtimal-as-Samma' and sitting in an Ihtiba' posture with one garment that does not cover the private parts.

Narrated Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri: The Prophet forbade Ishtimal-as-Samma' and that a man should sit in an Ihtiba' posture in one garment, nothing of which covers his private parts.
حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدٌ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي مَخْلَدٌ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ نَهَى عَنِ اشْتِمَالِ الصَّمَّاءِ، وَأَنْ يَحْتَبِيَ الرَّجُلُ فِي ثَوْبٍ وَاحِدٍ، لَيْسَ عَلَى فَرْجِهِ مِنْهُ شَىْءٌ‏.‏

QUICK LESSONS:
Dress modestly & Cover your body properly
EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about modesty and proper clothing. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ forbade two things, Ishtimal as Samma’ and sitting in an Ihbta’ posture with one garment that does not cover the private parts. Ishtimal as Samma’ is when a person wraps themselves up completely, leaving no part of their body exposed. Sitting in an Ihbta’ posture means to sit cross legged while wearing only one piece of clothing, which should be long enough to cover the private parts. This hadith teaches us that we should always dress modestly so that our bodies are covered properly at all times. We should also be mindful of how we sit so as not to expose any part of our body unnecessarily.
