It is narrated from Shurayh (may Allah have mercy on him) that I asked Umm al-Mu'minin Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) about going to the countryside and said: Did the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ever go outside the city population? She replied: Yes, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would sometimes go towards those mounds.
