Commentary:
The Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam did not act upon this intention because there are women and children in the houses, and taking their circumstances into consideration, he sallallahu alayhi wa sallam overlooked it. However, staying behind from the congregation is certainly a cause of the Messenger of Allah’s sallallahu alayhi wa sallam displeasure; therefore, it can be counted as a major sin (kabirah).
