Umm al-Mu'mineen Aisha Siddiqa (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "Have you people considered us equal to dogs and donkeys? Indeed, I have seen myself lying on the bed and the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) would come and stand in the middle of the bed (to pray), and I disliked being in front of him (during prayer), so I would slip away towards the legs of the bed until I would be outside my blanket."
