Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates from the Mother of the Believers, Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her), that she said: "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! All of your wives have entered the House (of Allah) except me." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Go to your close relative Shaybah, so that he may open the door for you, and enter it." Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: I sent word to him that the Prophet of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had given me permission for you to open the door for me so that I may enter it. He asked: "Has the Prophet of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) really commanded you to do that?" I said: "Yes." So he took the keys, came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! Did you command that the door be opened for Aishah?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Yes." He said: "No, by Allah! I have never opened it at night, neither in the time of Ignorance nor in Islam." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Then look at what you used to do and do that, and what you did not use to do, do not do it. And you, O Aishah, go and pray two rak'ahs in the Hijr (the Hatim), for part of it is from the House, and your people ran short of funds, so they left part of the House (outside)."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "No one narrated this hadith from Ata bin al-Sa'ib except Shu'ayb bin Safwan."
