Brief Explanation
1؎ : In another narration it is mentioned that when my body became heavier, you (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) outran me in the race. You (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said: "Aisha! This is the recompense for the first race." The purpose of mentioning this hadith here is to show the good conduct of a husband with his wives. Despite the fact that the age of the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) was greater, and Aisha (radi Allahu anha) was younger in age, yet he (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) would do such things to please her. Racing is permissible; it is not an improper game.
Explanation & Benefits
Maulana Ataullah Sajid
Benefits and Issues:
➊
When Aisha radi Allahu anha was granted the honor of serving the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, she was of a young age.
The Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, taking her youth into consideration, would provide her with opportunities for amusement.
➋
Children, both boys and girls, should be provided with appropriate opportunities for permissible recreation.
➌
It is not correct to maintain an atmosphere of constant seriousness in the home.
Engaging in appropriate humor with one’s wife and children and trying to make them happy is not contrary to one’s dignity.
➍
This incident took place during a journey.
The Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said to the noble Companions radi Allahu anhum: “You go ahead.”
Afterwards, he raced with the Mother of the Believers radi Allahu anha.
At that time, she outran him.
Several years later, a similar event occurred during another journey, but this time the Mother of the Believers radi Allahu anha lagged behind.
The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said: “This is the recompense for that previous race.” See: (Sunan Abi Dawud, Al-Jihad, Chapter: Regarding Racing with a Man, Hadith: 2578)
