It is narrated from Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that once Barirah came to her; she was a mukatabah (a slave woman who had a contract for her freedom) and came with a request for help in paying her contract amount. Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) asked her, "Do your owners want to sell you? If they wish, I will pay your contract amount, but your wala (right of inheritance/loyalty) will be mine." She went to her owners and mentioned this to them. They said, "Not unless she accepts the condition that your inheritance will go to us." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), "Buy her and set her free, for the wala (right of inheritance/loyalty) belongs only to the one who sets the slave free." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) stood up and said, "What is wrong with people that they stipulate conditions which are not in the Book of Allah? Whoever stipulates a condition that is not permitted in the Book of Allah, it is not valid, even if he stipulates it a hundred times. The condition of Allah is more deserving and stronger."

Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) says that if anyone tells you that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) urinated while standing, then do not consider him truthful, because since the Qur'an was revealed to him, he never urinated while standing without a valid excuse.

The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked, "Who is this?" She replied, "O Messenger of Allah! This is my foster brother." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Make sure to verify who your brothers are, for the relationship of fosterage is established only through hunger (that is, within two and a half years, during which the child's hunger is satisfied only by that milk)."

Aswad bin Yazid was informed by Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) regarding the night prayer of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to sleep in the early part of the night and wake up in the last part of the night. Then, if he felt a need towards his wife, he would fulfill his need, then before touching water, he would stand up. When the first call to prayer was given, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would go quickly and pour water over his body, and if he was not in a state of major impurity, he would only perform the ablution for prayer, and he would offer two rak'ahs and proceed towards the mosque.
