Abu Sa’id al-Khudri reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Verily, the most evil of people in the presence of Allah on the Day of Resurrection is a man who was intimate with his wife and then spreads her secrets.”

Grade: Sahih (authentic) according to Muslim
Imam al-Nawawi commented, “In this hadith is the prohibition of a man divulging what occurs between himself and his wife regarding matters of intimate enjoyment, describing the details of that, and what occurs from the woman therein of speech, actions, and the like. As for merely mentioning sexual intercourse itself, then if there is no benefit in it and no need for it, it is disapproved because it is contrary to chivalry.”

عن أبى سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِي قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّ مِنْ أَشَرِّ النَّاسِ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ مَنْزِلَةً يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ الرَّجُلَ يُفْضِي إِلَى امْرَأَتِهِ وَتُفْضِي إِلَيْهِ ثُمَّ يَنْشُرُ سِرَّهَا
1437 صحيح مسلم كتاب النكاح باب تحريم إفشاء سر المرأة
قال النووي وَفِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ تَحْرِيمُ إِفْشَاءِ الرَّجُلِ مَا يَجْرِي بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ امْرَأَتِهِ مِنْ أُمُورِ الِاسْتِمْتَاعِ وَوَصْفِ تَفَاصِيلِ ذَلِكَ وَمَا يَجْرِي مِنَ الْمَرْأَةِ فِيهِ مِنْ قَوْلٍ أَوْ فِعْلٍ وَنَحْوِهِ فَأَمَّا مُجَرَّدُ ذِكْرِ الْجِمَاعِ فَإِنْ لَمْ تَكُنْ فِيهِ فَائِدَةٌ وَلَا إِلَيْهِ حَاجَةٌ فَمَكْرُوهٌ لِأَنَّهُ خِلَافُ الْمُرُوءَةِ
