Praying on a bed

كُنْتُ أَنَامُ بَيْنَ يَدَىْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَرِجْلاَىَ فِي قِبْلَتِهِ، فَإِذَا سَجَدَ غَمَزَنِي، فَقَبَضْتُ رِجْلَىَّ، فَإِذَا قَامَ بَسَطْتُهُمَا. قَالَتْ وَالْبُيُوتُ يَوْمَئِذٍ لَيْسَ فِيهَا مَصَابِيحُ.

Translation

Aishah reported: I used to sleep in front of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ with my legs in his qiblah. When he prostrated, he would nudge me and I would draw up my legs, and when he stood up, I would stretch them out. She said, “And in those days the houses had no lamps.”

Aischa berichtete: Ich pflegte vor dem Gesandten Allahs ﷺ zu schlafen, während meine Beine in seiner Gebetsrichtung (Qibla) lagen. Wenn er sich niederwarf, stupste er mich an, und ich zog meine Beine an; und wenn er aufstand, streckte ich sie aus. Sie sagte: „Und die Häuser hatten damals keine Lampen.“

Âişe (r.a.) şöyle rivayet etti: Resûlullah'ın ﷺ önünde uyurdum, ayaklarım da onun kıblesinde olurdu. Secde ettiğinde beni dürterdi, ben de ayaklarımı çekerdim; kalktığında da onları uzatırdım. Dedi ki: “O gün evlerde kandil yoktu.”
