Question 1901: From what age is it obligatory to conceal intimate relations from children?
✅ Answer: Please refer to the following narrations:
1⃣عَنْ سُلَیْمَانَ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ الْجَعْفَرِیِّ عَنِ الرِّضَا عَنْ آبَائِهِ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ تَعَلَّمُوا مِنَ الْغُرَابِ خِصَالًا ثَلَاثاً اسْتِتَارَهُ بِالسِّفَادِ وَ بُکُورَهُ فِی طَلَبِ الرِّزْقِ وَ حَذَرَهُ.
📚 Uyoon Akhbar al-Ridha, p. 257, hadith 10
Imam Reza (peace be upon him) narrated from his ancestors that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) said: Learn three qualities from the crow: concealing its mating, seeking sustenance at the beginning of its day, and exercising caution.
2⃣عَنِ ابْنِ رَاشِدٍ عَنْ أَبِیهِ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ یَقُولُ لَا یُجَامِعِ الرَّجُلُ امْرَأَتَهُ وَ لَا جَارِیَتَهُ وَ فِی الْبَیْتِ صَبِیٌّ فَإِنَّ ذَلِکَ مِمَّا یُورِثُ الزِّنَا.
📚 Al-Kafi, Vol. 5, p. 499
Rashid reported: I heard Imam Sadiq (peace be upon him) say: A man should not have intercourse with his wife or servant in a room where there is a child, as it can lead to immoral behavior.
3⃣عَنْ عَبْدِاللَّهِ بْنِ الْحُسَیْنِ بْنِ زَیْدٍ عَنْ أَبِیهِ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَ الَّذِی نَفْسِی بِیَدِهِ لَوْ أَنَّ رَجُلًا غَشِیَ امْرَأَتَهُ وَ فِی الْبَیْتِ صَبِیٌّ مُسْتَیْقِظٌ یَرَاهُمَا وَ یَسْمَعُ کَلَامَهُمَا وَ نَفَسَهُمَا مَا أَفْلَحَ أَبَداً إِنْ کَانَ غُلَاماً کَانَ زَانِیاً أَوْ جَارِیَةً کَانَتْ زَانِیَةً وَ کَانَ عَلِیُّ بْنُ الْحُسَیْنِ إِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ یَغْشَی أَهْلَهُ أَغْلَقَ الْبَابَ وَ أَرْخَی السُّتُورَ وَ أَخْرَجَ الْخَدَمَ.
📚 Al-Kafi, Vol. 5, p. 500
Imam Sadiq (peace be upon him) said: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) said, 'By the One in whose hand is my soul, if a man has intercourse with his wife while there is an awake child in the room who can see and hear them, he will not prosper: if it is a boy, he will become adulterous, and if it is a girl, she will become adulterous.' Imam Sajjad (peace be upon him) would close the door, draw the curtain, and send the servants out when intending to be with his wife.
4⃣عَنْ أَبِی بَصِیرٍ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: إِیَّاکَ أَنْ تُجَامِعَ أَهْلَکَ وَ صَبِیٌّ یَنْظُرُ إِلَیْکَ فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ کَانَ یَکْرَهُ ذَلِکَ أَشَدَّ کَرَاهِیَةٍ.
📚 Tibb al-A'imma, p. 133
Abu Basir reported: Imam Sadiq (peace be upon him) said: Avoid having intercourse with your wife while a child is watching, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) strongly disliked this.
5⃣عن أَحْمَدَ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ الْخَلِیلِ عن مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِیلَ عَنِ النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ یَعْلَی عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ: قال أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ إِیَّاکَ وَ الْجِمَاعَ حَیْثُ یَرَاکَ صَبِیٌّ یُحْسِنُ أَنْ یَصِفَ حَالَکَ قُلْتُ یَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ کَرَاهَةَ الشُّنْعَةِ قَالَ لَا فَإِنَّکَ إِنْ رُزِقْتَ وَلَداً کَانَ شُهْرَةً عَلَماً فِی الْفِسْقِ وَ الْفُجُورِ.
📚 Tibb al-A'imma, p. 133
Jabir reported: Imam Baqir (peace be upon him) said: Avoid intercourse in a way that a child who can clearly understand and describe your state can see you. I asked, 'Is this due to the shame and scandal?' He replied, 'No, because if a child is conceived from such intercourse, that child may be infamous for immorality and wrongdoing.'
📚 Al-Ja'fariyat, p. 96
6⃣أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْداللَّهِ أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ حَدَّثَنِي مُوسَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ: نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ أَنْ يُجَامِعَ الرَّجُلُ امْرَأَتَهُ وَ الصَّبِيُّ فِي الْمَهْدِ يَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِمَا
The Commander of the Faithful (peace be upon him) said: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) prohibited a man from being intimate with his wife while a child in the cradle is watching.
✅ From these narrations, it is emphasized that intimacy should be concealed, and intercourse in a room with an awake child who can see or hear should be avoided, as it may lead to the child becoming immoral and, if a child is conceived, that child may be known for wrongdoing. Most narrations, especially those in Al-Kafi, do not specify an age limit, implying it applies to children of all ages.
