Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that his grandmother, Malikah, prepared food and invited the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) to eat. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ate the food and then said: "Come, let me lead you in prayer." Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I took up a mat of mine which had become black due to frequent use, I sprinkled water on it, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) stood on that mat (for prayer). I and an orphan boy (Dhamirah) formed a row behind him, and my grandmother stood behind us. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) led us in two rak‘ahs of prayer, and then departed.
