It is narrated from Hazrat Umm Atiyyah (may Allah be pleased with her) that when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) arrived in Madinah Munawwarah, he gathered the women of the Ansar in a house, then sent Hazrat Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) to them. He came and stood at the door and greeted them with salam. The women replied. Hazrat Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I have come to you as the messenger of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). We said: Welcome to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and his messenger. He said: Do you pledge that you will not associate anything with Allah, will not commit adultery, will not kill your children, will not fabricate any slander, and will not disobey the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in any good work? We agreed and extended our hands from inside the house. Hazrat Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) extended his hand from outside and said: O Allah! Be witness. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) also commanded us that on the two Eids, we should take the unmarried and menstruating women out for the prayer, and he forbade us from accompanying funeral processions, and that Jumu'ah is not obligatory upon us. A woman asked Hazrat Umm Atiyyah (may Allah be pleased with her) about the meaning of «وَلا يَعْصِينَكَ فِي مَعْرُوفٍ» , so she replied that in it we were forbidden from wailing.
