It is narrated from Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that we set out with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and our intention was only to perform Hajj. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) reached Makkah Mukarramah, he performed the Tawaf of the House of Allah but did not exit the state of Ihram. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had a sacrificial animal with him. His noble wives and the companions (may Allah be pleased with them) also performed Tawaf and Sa’i, and all those who did not have a sacrificial animal with them exited the state of Ihram. Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) was in her menstrual period. After we had performed our Hajj rituals and reached the place of Hasbah to depart, I said, "O Messenger of Allah! Will your companions return with both Hajj and Umrah, and I will return with only Hajj?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "When we reached Makkah Mukarramah, did you not perform Tawaf of both?" I replied, "No." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Go with your brother to Tan’eem, enter into Ihram for Umrah, perform Umrah, and meet us at such-and-such place." Meanwhile, Hazrat Safiyyah (may Allah be pleased with her) began her menstrual period. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "These women cut and shave (i.e., they delay us), you will make us stay longer. Did you not perform Tawaf al-Ziyarah on the tenth of Dhul-Hijjah?" She replied, "Yes, I did." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Then there is no harm, now you may depart." Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) says that I met the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) at night while the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was ascending the upper part of Makkah Mukarramah and I was descending, or the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was descending and I was ascending.

The previous hadith is also narrated through this second chain of transmission.

Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) once learned that some people say that a dog, a donkey, and a woman passing in front of a person praying breaks his prayer. So she said, "I think these people have made us equal to dogs and donkeys, whereas sometimes the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would pray at night and I would be lying between him and the Qiblah like a bier. If I needed something, I would slip away from the foot of the bed, because I did not like to pass in front of him."

It is narrated from Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that (I used to apply the best perfume available with me to the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم and) it is as if that scene is still before my eyes that I am seeing the shine of musk on the head of the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم while he was in the state of Ihram.

It is narrated from Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that I heard the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "Any woman who removes her clothes anywhere other than her husband's house tears the veil between herself and her Lord."

It is narrated from Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that the son of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), Hazrat Ibrahim (peace be upon him), passed away at the age of eighteen months, but the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not lead his funeral prayer.

It is narrated from Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that when the people intended to give Ghusl (ritual bath) to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), there arose a difference of opinion among the people and they began to say, "By Allah! We do not understand what to do. Should we remove the clothes from the body of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) like ordinary men, or should we give him Ghusl with his clothes on?" Meanwhile, Allah caused drowsiness to overcome them, and by Allah, there was not a single man whose chin did not fall upon his chest and who did not fall asleep. Then, from a corner of the house, a voice was heard from someone whose identity they did not know, and he said, "Give the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) Ghusl with his clothes on." So the people advanced and began to give the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) Ghusl with his clothes on, and water mixed with lote leaves was poured over the blessed body, and the body was rubbed over the shirt itself. Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) says, "If I had understood earlier what I understood later, then only the pure wives of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would have given him Ghusl."

It is narrated from Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that during the blessed month of Ramadan, people used to pray in the Prophet’s Mosque at night in different groups. Whoever knew a little bit of the Qur’an, about six people would stand with him and pray with him. One day, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered me to spread a mat at the door of the chamber, so I did so. After the ‘Isha prayer, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came out of the house in the middle of the night and started praying in the mosque. People gathered and joined the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in prayer. In the morning, people mentioned to each other that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had come out of his house at midnight and prayed in the mosque. So, the next night, more people gathered than before. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came out as usual and started praying, and people joined him. The same happened on the third night. On the fourth night, so many people gathered that there was no room left in the mosque for anyone else to come, but that night the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) remained in the house and did not come out, until I heard some people saying,“Prayer! Prayer!”But the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not come out. Then, when he led the Fajr prayer, after finishing the prayer he stood among the people, testified to the Oneness of Allah and the Messengership, and after saying“Amma ba’du”said:“Your condition tonight was not hidden from me, but I feared that this prayer might become obligatory upon you and then you would be unable to perform it. Therefore, do as much as you are able, for Allah will not tire, but you will surely tire.”

It is narrated from Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that the wife of Hazrat Uthman bin Maz'oon, Khawla bint Hakim, used to apply henna and smell of fragrance, but suddenly she abandoned all these things. One day she came to me in a disheveled state, so the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me, "Aisha! Why is Khawla in this bad condition?" I replied, "O Messenger of Allah! She is like a woman who has no husband, because her husband fasts all day and prays all night, so she is as if she has no husband. That is why she has left herself in this state." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) met him and said, "O Uthman! Are you turning away from my Sunnah?" He replied, "No, by Allah, O Messenger of Allah! I am seeking your Sunnah." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Then I sleep and I pray, I fast and I break my fast, and I marry women. Therefore, O Uthman! Fear Allah, for your family, your guests, and even your own self have rights over you. So fast and also break your fast, pray and also sleep."

It is narrated from Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that once a woman named Hawla bint Tuwait passed by the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Someone informed him, "O Messenger of Allah! This woman prays all night, and when she becomes overcome by sleep, she ties a rope and hangs from it." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "She should pray as long as she has strength, and when she becomes drowsy, she should sleep."
