Narrated from Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), she says: Sayyida Khawla bint Hakim (may Allah be pleased with her) came to me; she was the wife of Sayyiduna Uthman bin Maz'un (may Allah be pleased with him). When the Messenger of Allah saw her disheveled state, he said to me: "Aisha! Khawla's condition is very untidy." I said: "O Messenger of Allah! Just consider that this woman has no husband, because he fasts during the day and stands in prayer at night. Therefore, Khawla is like a woman whose husband is not present, so she has not paid any attention to herself and has neglected herself." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent for Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him), so he came, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: "O Uthman! Are you turning away from my Sunnah?" He said: "By Allah, no, O Messenger of Allah! I am indeed seeking your Sunnah." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If that is so, then I sleep and I pray, I fast and I break my fast, and I have married women. O Uthman! Fear Allah, your wife has a right over you, your guest has a right over you, and your own self has a right over you. Therefore, fast sometimes and leave it sometimes, pray and also sleep."
