Anas bin Malik said that his grandmother Mulaikah the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم to take meals which the prepared for him. He took some of it and prayed. He said: Get up, I shall lead you in prayer. Anas said: I got up and took a mat which had become black on account of long use. I then washed it with water. The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم stood upon it. I and the orphan (Ibn Abi Dumairah, the freed slave of the prophet) stood in a row behind him. The old women stood behind us. He then led us two RAKAHs in prayer and went away.

Anas said: The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم led him and one of their women in prayer. He (the prophet) put him on his right side and the woman behind him (Anas)

Anas bin Malik reported: A man from the Ansar said: I am a corpulent man-and he was (actually) a fat man; I cannot pray along with you. He prepared food for him and invited him to his house. (he said) (please) pray (here) so that I may see how you pray, and then I would follow you. They (the people) washed one side of their mat. He (the prophet) then got up and prayed two Rak’ahs. Ibn al-Jarud asked Anas bin Malik: would he (the prophet) say the forenoon prayer? He replied: I did not see him offering this prayer except that day.
