It is narrated from Muhammad bin Jahsh, may Allah be pleased with him, that once the Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, passed by Hazrat Muammar, may Allah be pleased with him, who was sitting in the courtyard of the mosque with both legs upright in such a way that the cloth had slipped from one side of his thigh. The Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, said to him, "O Muammar! Cover your thigh, for the thigh is part of the private area."
