It is narrated from Umm al-Mu'minin Aisha Siddiqa (may Allah be pleased with her) that she used to play with dolls in the presence of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). She said that her friends would come and, upon seeing the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), would hide (out of shyness and fear), so the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would send them to her.
