[Machine] "O Messenger of Allah, I have seen men in Yemen prostrating to each other. Shouldn't we prostrate to you instead?" He replied, "If I were to command someone to prostrate to another person, I would have commanded the woman to prostrate to her husband."
يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ رَأَيْتُ رِجَالًا بِالْيَمَنِ يَسْجُدُ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضٍ أَفَلَا نَسْجُدُ لَكَ؟ قَالَ لَوْ كُنْتُ آمِرًا بَشَرًا يَسْجُدُ لِبَشَرٍ لَأَمَرْتُ الْمَرْأَةَ أَنْ تَسْجُدَ لِزَوْجِهَا
[Machine] An Arab man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, give me permission to prostrate to you." The Prophet ﷺ said, "If I were to command anyone to prostrate to another, I would have commanded the wife to prostrate to her husband."
جَاءَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ائْذَنْ لِي فَلِأَسْجُدَ لَكَ قَالَ «لَوْ كُنْتُ آمِرًا أَحَدًا أَنْ يَسْجُدَ لِأَحَدٍ لَأَمَرْتُ الْمَرْأَةَ أَنْ تَسْجُدَ لِزَوْجِهَا»
[Machine] So I said, "O Messenger of Allah, I have come from a people who prostrate to one another. Should we not do that for you? He said, "If I were to command anyone to prostrate to another person, I would have commanded women to prostrate to their husbands."
فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي قَدِمْتُ مِنْ عِنْدِ قَوْمٍ يَسْجُدُ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضٍ أَفَلَا نَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ لَكَ؟ قَالَ «لَوْ كُنْتُ آمُرُ بَشَرًا أَنْ يَسْجُدَ لِبَشَرٍ لَأَمَرْتُ النِّسَاءَ أَنْ يَسْجُدْنَ لِأَزْوَاجِهِنِّ»
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If I were to command anyone to prostrate to someone else, I would have commanded the woman to prostrate to her husband."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَوْ كُنْتُ آمِرًا أَحَدًا أَنْ يَسْجُدَ لِأَحَدٍ لَأَمَرْتُ الْمَرْأَةَ أَنْ تَسْجُدَ لِزَوْجِهَا»
