Primary text

It is disliked (*yukrah*) to be completely naked during intercourse. This is supported by the narration of Utbah ibn Abd, who said the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, commanded: 'When one of you approaches his spouse, he should cover himself and not strip entirely like donkeys,' narrated by Ibn Majah. Aisha also stated that the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, covered his head when entering the latrine and when approaching his spouse.
