Narrated al-Qasim:
Aisha said that whenever the Prophet intended to go on a journey, he drew lots among his wives
(so as to take one of them along with him). During one of his journeys the lot fell on ‘Aisha and Haf –
sa. When night fell the Prophet would ride beside ‘Aisha and talk with her. One night Hafsa said to
‘Aisha, “Won’t you ride my camel tonight and I ride yours, so that you may see (me) and I see (you)
(in new situation)?” ‘Aisha said, “Yes, (I agree.)” So ‘Aisha rode, and then the Prophet came towards
‘Aisha’s camel on which Hafsa was riding. He greeted Hafsa and then proceeded (beside her) till they
dismounted (on the way). ‘Aisha missed him, and so, when they dismounted, she put her legs in the
Idhkhir and said, “O Lord (Allah)! Send a scorpion or a snake to bite me for I am not to blame him
(the Prophet ).

Volume 7, Book 62, Number 125:
Narrated ‘Abdullah bin Abbas:
During the lifetime of Allah’s Apostle, the sun eclipsed. Allah’s Apostle offered the prayer of (the)
eclipse) and so did the people along with him. He performed a long Qiyam (standing posture) during
which Surat-al-Baqara could have been recited; then he performed a pro-longed bowing, then
raised his head and stood for a long time which was slightly less than that of the first Qiyam (and re –
cited Qur’an). Then he performed a prolonged bowing again but the period was shorter than the
period of the first bowing, then he stood up and then prostrated. Again he stood up, but this time the
period of standing was less than the first standing. Then he performed a prolonged bowing but of a
lesser duration than the first, then he stood up again for a long time but for a lesser duration than
the first. Then he performed a prolonged bowing but of lesser duration than the first, and then he
again stood up, and then prostrated and then finished his prayer. By then the sun eclipse had
cleared. The Prophet then said, “The sun and the moon are two signs among the signs of Allah, and
they do not eclipse because of the death or birth of someone, so when you observe the eclipse, re –
member Allah (offer the eclipse prayer).” They (the people) said, “O Allah’s Apostle! We saw you
stretching your hand to take something at this place of yours, then we saw you stepping backward.”
He said, “I saw Paradise (or Paradise was shown to me), and I stretched my hand to pluck a bunch (of
grapes), and had I plucked it, you would have eaten of it as long as this world exists. Then I saw the
(Hell) Fire, and I have never before, seen such a horrible sight as that, and I saw that the majority of
its dwellers were women.” The people asked, “O Allah’s Apostle! What is the reason for that?” He
replied, “Because of their ungratefulness.” It was said. “Do they disbelieve in Allah (are they ungrate –
ful to Allah)?” He replied, “They are not thankful to their husbands and are ungrateful for the favors
done to them. Even if you do good to one of them all your life, when she seems some harshness from
you, she will say, “I have never seen any good from you.’ ”
