you.” Buraira mentioned that offer to her masters but they refused to sell her unless the Wala’ was

Narrated ‘Amra bint ‘AbdurRahman:
I heard ‘Aisha saying, “Five days before the end of Dhul-Qa’ada we set out from Medina in the
company of Allah’s Apostle with the intention of performing Hajj only. When we approached Mecca,
Allah’s Apostle ordered those who had no Hadi with them to finish their lhram after performing
Tawaf of the Ka’ba and (Sa’i) and between Safa and Marwa.” ‘Aisha added, “On the day of Nahr
(slaughtering of sacrifice) beef was brought to us. I asked, ‘What is this?’ The reply was, ‘Allah’s
Apostle (p.b.u.h) has slaughtered (sacrifices) on behalf of his wives.’ “
Volume 2, Book 18, Number 164:
Narrated ‘Amra bint ‘AbdurRahman:
A Jewess came to ‘Aisha to ask her about something and then she said, “May Allah give you refuge
from the punishment of the grave.” So ‘Aisha asked Allah’s Apostle, “Would the people be punished in
their graves?” Allah’s Apostle asked Allah’s refuge from the punishment of the grave (indicating an
affirmative reply). Then one day Allah’s Apostle rode (to leave for some place) but the sun eclipsed.
He returned on the forenoon and passed through the rear of the dwellings (of his wives) and stood
up and started offering the (eclipse) prayer and the people stood behind him. He stood for a long
period and then performed a long bowing and then stood straight for a long period which was
shorter than that of the first standing, then he performed a prolonged bowing which was shorter
than the first bowing, then he raised his head and prostrated for a long time and then stood up (for
the second Raka) for a long while, but the standing was shorter than the standing of the first Raka.
Then he performed a prolonged bowing which was shorter than that of the first one. He then stood
up for a long time but shorter than the first, then again performed a long bowing which was shorter
than the first and then prostrated for a shorter while than that of the first prostration. Then he fin –
ished the prayer and delivered the sermon and) said what Allah wished; and ordered the people to
seek refuge with Allah from the punishment of the grave.
