Sahih Muslim - Book 16, Hadith 10 View on sunnah.com →
Jabir reported that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) saw a woman, and so he came to his wife, Zainab, as she was tanning a leather and had sexual intercourse with her. He then went to his Companions and told them: The woman advances and retires in the shape of a devil, so when one of you sees a woman, he should come to his wife, for that will repel what he feels in his heart.

How the Prophet ص modelled this behaviour here

Principled Leadership

“he came to his wife, Zainab, as she was tanning a leather and had sexual intercourse with her.”

Leads the marriage from inner conviction and self-mastery rather than insecurity or ego; sets a steady, positive tone for the home.
