موطا امام مالك رواية ابن القاسم
Muwatta Imam Malik (Riwayat Ibn al-Qasim)
Discussion on Sutrah (Barrier in Prayer)
If a mahram woman is in front of the worshipper, the prayer is valid
Hadith 132
423- وعن أبى النضر مولى عمر بن عبيد الله عن أبى سلمة بن عبد الرحمن عن عائشة زوج النبى صلى الله عليه وسلم أنها قالت: كنت أنام بين يدي رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ورجلاي فى قبلته، فإذا سجد غمزني فقبضت رجلي، فإذا قام بسطتهما؛ قالت: والبيوت يومئذ ليس فيها مصابيح.
It is narrated from the wife of the Prophet, Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), that I used to sleep in front of the Prophet (peace be upon him) and my feet would be towards his qiblah. Then when the Prophet (peace be upon him) would go into prostration, he would touch my feet with his hand, and I would withdraw my feet. Then when he stood up, I would stretch out my feet again. In those days, there were no lamps in the houses.
