Chapter 8 · Prayers (Salat)فِي كَمْ تُصَلِّي الْمَرْأَةُ فِي الثِّيَابِ
In how many garments a woman prays
لَقَدْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يُصَلِّي الْفَجْرَ، فَيَشْهَدُ مَعَهُ نِسَاءٌ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنَاتِ مُتَلَفِّعَاتٍ فِي مُرُوطِهِنَّ ثُمَّ يَرْجِعْنَ إِلَى بُيُوتِهِنَّ مَا يَعْرِفُهُنَّ أَحَدٌ.

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْيَمَانِ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا شُعَيْبٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عُرْوَةُ، أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ
Translation
Aishah reported: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to pray the Fajr prayer, and believing women would attend it with him, wrapped in their woollen sheets. Then they would return to their homes without anyone recognizing them.
Translator’s note: They were not recognized because of the darkness and their wrapping.
