Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) once patrolled at night and heard a woman reciting these verses: "The night has become long and there is no one to comfort me; if it were not for the fear of Allah, the bed would shake." In the morning, he summoned the woman's husband and decided that the warriors (mujahideen) should be returned to their homes after four months.
