250 - وَ رُوِيَ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اَللَّهِ اَلْمُرَافِقِيِّ قَالَ: دَخَلْتُ حَمَّاماً بِالْمَدِينَةِ فَإِذَا شَيْخٌ كَبِيرٌ وَ هُوَ قَيِّمُ اَلْحَمَّامِ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ يَا شَيْخُ لِمَنْ هَذَا اَلْحَمَّامُ فَقَالَ لِأَبِي جَعْفَرٍ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ فَقُلْتُ أَ كَانَ يَدْخُلُهُ قَالَ نَعَمْ فَقُلْتُ كَيْفَ كَانَ يَصْنَعُ قَالَ كَانَ يَدْخُلُ فَيَبْدَأُ فَيَطْلِي عَانَتَهُ وَ مَا يَلِيهَا ثُمَّ يَلُفُّ إِزَارَهُ عَلَى أَطْرَافِ إِحْلِيلِهِ وَ يَدْعُونِي فَأَطْلِي سَائِرَ جَسَدِهِ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ يَوْماً مِنَ اَلْأَيَّامِ اَلَّذِي تَكْرَهُ أَنْ أَرَاهُ قَدْ رَأَيْتُهُ قَالَ «كَلاَّ إِنَّ اَلنُّورَةَ سُتْرَةٌ.
Hadith.250 - It was narrated by Ubaidullah Al-Marafiqi that he entered a bathhouse in Medina and saw an elderly man who was the caretaker of the bathhouse.
(Al-Marafiqi) said to him: ‘O’ Shaykh, 'To whom does this bathhouse belong?'
(Old man) said: ‘It belongs to Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir 
’
(Al-Marafiqi) asked: 'Did he use to come here?'
(Old man) replied: 'Yes.'
So (Al-Marafiqi) asked: ‘And what does He do (in the bathhouse)?’
(Old man) said: 'He would enter and first anoint the area around his private parts and what was near it. Then, he would wrap his waistcloth (izar) around the edges of his private area and call me to anoint the rest of his body." One day, I said to him, "What you would dislike for me to see, I have already seen.'
Imam said: 'Not at all; the Nuura (depilatory paste) is a form of covering.'
