Contacting and Embracing During Menstruation

SUMMARY: The Prophet ﷺ would contact and embrace any of his wives while she was menstruating, and she would wear the wrapper up to half the thighs or cover her knees with it.

Maimunah said: The Prophet would contact and embrace any of his wives while she was menstruating. She would wear the wrapper up to half the the thighs or cover her knees with it.
حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ خَالِدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَوْهَبٍ الرَّمْلِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ حَبِيبٍ، مَوْلَى عُرْوَةَ عَنْ نُدْبَةَ، مَوْلاَةِ مَيْمُونَةَ عَنْ مَيْمُونَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كَانَ يُبَاشِرُ الْمَرْأَةَ مِنْ نِسَائِهِ وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ إِذَا كَانَ عَلَيْهَا إِزَارٌ إِلَى أَنْصَافِ الْفَخِذَيْنِ أَوِ الرُّكْبَتَيْنِ تَحْتَجِزُ بِهِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about how the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ used to contact and embrace any of his wives while she was menstruating. He would allow her to wear a wrapper up to half her thighs or cover her knees with it. This shows us that even during a time when women were not allowed to be seen in public, the Prophet ﷺ respected them by allowing them some privacy during their menstrual cycle. It also teaches us that we should respect women's privacy at all times, regardless of their situation.
