Abdullah bin Qais (may Allah have mercy on him) says that I asked Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), "Tell me, did the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) perform the ghusl of janabah in the early part of the night or the latter part?" She replied, "Sometimes he would perform ghusl in the early part of the night and sometimes in the latter part." Upon this, I said "Allahu Akbar" and expressed gratitude, "Praise be to Allah who has granted ease in this matter." Then I asked, "Tell me, did the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) perform witr in the early part of the night or the latter part?" She replied, "Sometimes he would perform witr in the early part of the night and sometimes in the latter part." Again, I said "Allahu Akbar" and expressed gratitude, "Praise be to Allah who has granted ease in this matter." Then I asked, "Tell me, did the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) recite aloud or silently?" She replied, "Sometimes he would recite aloud and sometimes silently." Again, I said "Allahu Akbar" and expressed gratitude, "Praise be to Allah who has granted ease in this matter as well."

It is narrated from Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to say: When the time came for a prophet's soul to be taken, after their soul was taken, their reward was shown to them, then it was returned and they were given the choice whether to be returned to that reward and joined with it (or to be sent back to the world). I had firmly preserved this saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in my mind. During his final illness, I was supporting the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) against my chest when suddenly I saw that his neck drooped. I thought that perhaps the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had departed from this world. Then I remembered what the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had said. So now when I looked at the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he raised his neck and looked upwards. I understood that now the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would not prefer us in any case. Thus, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "With the Highest Companion in Paradise." The Divine command is: "With those upon whom Allah has bestowed His favor, such as the Prophets (peace be upon them) and the truthful ones."

It is narrated from Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: O Aisha! The first people to be destroyed among the people will be those of your tribe. I asked, "May Allah make me your ransom, do you mean the people of Banu Taym?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: No, rather this tribe of Quraysh. Desires will be adorned before them and people will withdraw from them, and they will be the first to be destroyed. I asked, "Then what will remain of the people after them?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Quraysh are the backbone of the people, so when they are destroyed, the common people will also begin to be destroyed.

It is narrated from Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that once we did so and performed ghusl (ritual bath). (The meaning is that if a man has intercourse with his wife and there is no ejaculation, he should still perform ghusl.)
