Describing Another Woman's Body to Husband

SUMMARY: Women should not describe another woman's body to her husband in a way that would make him feel as if he was looking at her.

Ibn Mas'ud (May Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah said, "No woman should touch another woman's body and then describe the details of her figure to her husband in such a manner as if he was looking at her". Al- Bukhari.

Respect others privacy and do not talk negatively about them

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about how women should not describe another woman’s body to their husbands. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said that no woman should touch another woman’s body and then tell her husband the details of what she looks like, as if he was looking at her himself. This means that women should not talk about other women in a way that would make their husbands feel jealous or uncomfortable. Instead, they should focus on talking positively about themselves and their own bodies so that their husbands can appreciate them more. It also teaches us to respect other people’s privacy and not talk about them in a way that could hurt someone else’s feelings or cause harm.
