Hadith 255
وَحَدَّثَنِي ، عَنْ مَالِك ، عَنْ أَبِي النَّضْرِ مَوْلَى عُمَرَ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ : " كُنْتُ أَنَامُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَرِجْلَايَ فِي قِبْلَتِهِ فَإِذَا سَجَدَ غَمَزَنِي فَقَبَضْتُ رِجْلَيَّ فَإِذَا قَامَ بَسَطْتُهُمَا " . قَالَتْ : " وَالْبُيُوتُ يَوْمَئِذٍ لَيْسَ فِيهَا مَصَابِيحُ "
It is narrated from Umm al-Mu'mineen Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that I used to sleep in front of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and my feet would be in front of him. So when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) would go into prostration, he would press me, so I would draw up my feet. Then when he stood up, I would stretch out my feet again. Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) says that in those days there were no lamps in the houses.
