It is narrated from Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Do not settle women in the upper-storey rooms (from where they can look at people), nor teach them writing; rather, teach them spinning and Surah al-Nur." The chain of narration of this hadith is sahih (authentic), but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with him) concerning this statement of Allah Almighty: "The fornicator does not marry except a fornicatress or a polytheist woman" [Surah al-Nur: 3] , that in Madinah there were some immoral women whose places were well known, and some (needy) Muslim men wanted to marry these women so that they would spend on them. So they were forbidden from that. This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim), but they did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) concerning this saying of Allah Almighty, "Do not enter houses other than your own houses until you have ascertained welcome" [Surah al-Nur: 27] , that he said: (Here, originally) the scribe made a slip; (the correct wording) is "until you seek permission." This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim), but they did not record it.
