Sahih Muslim 348a (Book 3, Hadith 105) #7953
Obligation of Bathing After Intercourse

SUMMARY: Sexual intercourse requires both partners to take a bath afterwards.

Abu Huraira reported: The Apostle of Allah said: When a man has sexual intercourse, bathing becomes obligatory (both for the male and the female). In the hadith of Matar the words are: Even if there is no orgasm. Zuhair has narrated it with a minor alteration of words.
وَحَدَّثَنِي زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، وَأَبُو غَسَّانَ الْمِسْمَعِيُّ ح وَحَدَّثَنَاهُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، وَابْنُ، بَشَّارٍ قَالُوا حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، وَمَطَرٍ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، عَنْ أَبِي رَافِعٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ قَالَ ‏"‏ إِذَا جَلَسَ بَيْنَ شُعَبِهَا الأَرْبَعِ ثُمَّ جَهَدَهَا فَقَدْ وَجَبَ عَلَيْهِ الْغُسْلُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ وَفِي حَدِيثِ مَطَرٍ ‏"‏ وَإِنْ لَمْ يُنْزِلْ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ زُهَيْرٌ مِنْ بَيْنِهِمْ ‏"‏ بَيْنَ أَشْعُبِهَا الأَرْبَعِ
