When Sayyiduna Salman (may Allah be pleased with him) married into the family of Abi Qurrah Kindi, when he came to his wife, he said: "O lady! The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) advised me: 'When Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, grants you the ability to marry, let your first act be obedience to Allah.'" The wife said: "You are in a position where a man's command is to be obeyed." So Sayyiduna Salman said: "Get up, pray, and supplicate." Then he saw curtains in the house and said: "What is this? Is someone sick, or has the Ka'bah been moved to Kindah?" It was said: "No one is sick, nor has the Ka'bah been moved." So he said: "I will not enter until all the curtains are removed except for the curtain on the door."
