Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) narrated: The Prophet (ﷺ) was at her house, and there was a effeminate man in the house. He said to Abdullah ibn Abi Umayyah, the brother of Umm Salamah: "O Abdullah, if Allah grants you victory at Ta’if tomorrow, I will guide you to the daughter of Ghaylan, for she approaches with four and retreats with eight." The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "These people should not enter upon you"

Note 1

These people should not enter upon you

(1) The statement: "These people should not enter upon you" for this reason, it is stated in "Ad-Durr al-Mukhtar" that the castrated, the mutilated, and the effeminate are like the virile man in looking at a stranger woman.

قوله

(۱) قوله : لا يدخلن هؤلاء عليكم لذلك قال في الدر المختار والخصي والمجبوب والمخنث في النظر إلى الأجنبية كالفحل.

Note 1

ف: درمختار میں لکھا ہے کہ خصی اور مخنث کا حکم جو جماع پر قدرت نہیں رکھتے اجنبی عورت کے دیکھنے کے بارے میں صحیح اور سالم مرد کی طرح ہے۔12
