Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to my house while two girls were singing beside me the songs of Bu'ath (a story about the war between the two tribes of the Ansar, i.e. Khazraj and Aus, before Islam.) The Prophet ﷺ reclined on the bed and turned his face to the other side. Abu Bakr came and scolded me and said protestingly, "Instrument of Satan in the presence of Messenger of Allah ﷺ?" Messenger of Allah ﷺ turned his face towards him and said, "Leave them." When Abu Bakr became inattentive, I waved the two girls to go away and they left. It was the day of ʿId when negroes used to play with leather shields and spears. Either I requested Messenger of Allah ﷺ or he himself asked me whether I would like to see the display. I replied in the affirmative. Then he let me stand behind him and my cheek was touching his cheek and he was saying, "Carry on, O Bani Arfida (i.e. negroes)!" When I got tired, he asked me if that was enough. I replied in the affirmative and he told me to leave.  

عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ؓ دَخَلَ عَلَىَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَعِنْدِي جَارِيَتَانِ تُغَنِّيَانِ بِغِنَاءِ بُعَاثَ فَاضْطَجَعَ عَلَى الْفِرَاشِ وَحَوَّلَ وَجْهَهُ فَدَخَلَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَانْتَهَرَنِي وَقَالَ مِزْمَارَةُ الشَّيْطَانِ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَأَقْبَلَ عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ دَعْهُمَا فَلَمَّا غَفَلَ غَمَزْتُهُمَا فَخَرَجَتَا قَالَتْ وَكَانَ يَوْمُ عِيدٍ يَلْعَبُ السُّودَانُ بِالدَّرَقِ وَالْحِرَابِ فَإِمَّا سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَإِمَّا قَالَ تَشْتَهِينَ تَنْظُرِينَ فَقَالَتْ نَعَمْ فَأَقَامَنِي وَرَاءَهُ خَدِّي عَلَى خَدِّهِ وَيَقُولُ دُونَكُمْ بَنِي أَرْفِدَةَ حَتَّى إِذَا مَلِلْتُ قَالَ حَسْبُكِ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَاذْهَبِي  

The Prophet ﷺ was screening me with his Rida' (garment covering the upper part of the body) while I was looking at the Ethiopians who were playing in the courtyard of the mosque. (I continued watching) till I was satisfied. So you may deduce from this event how a little girl (who has not reached the age of puberty) who is eager to enjoy amusement should be treated in this respect.  

رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَسْتُرُنِي بِرِدَائِهِ وَأَنَا أَنْظُرُ إِلَى الْحَبَشَةِ يَلْعَبُونَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ حَتَّى أَكُونَ أَنَا الَّذِي أَسْأَمُ فَاقْدُرُوا قَدْرَ الْجَارِيَةِ الْحَدِيثَةِ السِّنِّ الْحَرِيصَةِ عَلَى اللَّهْوِ  

Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to my house while two girls were singing beside me the songs of Buath (a story about the war between the two tribes of the Ansar, the Khazraj and the Aus, before Islam). The Prophet ﷺ lay down and turned his face to the other side. Then Abu Bakr came and spoke to me harshly saying, "Musical instruments of Satan near the Prophet ﷺ ?" Messenger of Allah ﷺ turned his face towards him and said, "Leave them." When Abu Bakr became inattentive, I signaled to those girls to go out and they left. It was the day of ʿId, and the Black people were playing with shields and spears; so either I requested the Prophet ﷺ or he asked me whether I would like to see the display. I replied in the affirmative. Then the Prophet ﷺ made me stand behind him and my cheek was touching his cheek and he was saying, "Carry on! O Bani Arfida," till I got tired. The Prophet ﷺ asked me, "Are you satisfied (Is that sufficient for you)?" I replied in the affirmative and he told me to leave.  

دَخَلَ عَلَىَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَعِنْدِي جَارِيَتَانِ تُغَنِّيَانِ بِغِنَاءِ بُعَاثَ فَاضْطَجَعَ عَلَى الْفِرَاشِ وَحَوَّلَ وَجْهَهُ وَدَخَلَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَانْتَهَرَنِي وَقَالَ مِزْمَارَةُ الشَّيْطَانِ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَأَقْبَلَ عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ فَقَالَ دَعْهُمَا فَلَمَّا غَفَلَ غَمَزْتُهُمَا فَخَرَجَتَا وَكَانَ يَوْمَ عِيدٍ يَلْعَبُ السُّودَانُ بِالدَّرَقِ وَالْحِرَابِ فَإِمَّا سَأَلْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ وَإِمَّا قَالَ تَشْتَهِينَ تَنْظُرِينَ فَقُلْتُ نَعَمْ فَأَقَامَنِي وَرَاءَهُ خَدِّي عَلَى خَدِّهِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ دُونَكُمْ يَا بَنِي أَرْفِدَةَ حَتَّى إِذَا مَلِلْتُ قَالَ حَسْبُكِ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَاذْهَبِي  

That once Abu Bakr came to her on the day of ʿId-ul-Fitr or ʿId ul Adha while the Prophet ﷺ was with her and there were two girl singers with her, singing songs of the Ansar about the day of Buath. Abu Bakr said twice. "Musical instrument of Satan!" But the Prophet ﷺ said, "Leave them Abu Bakr, for every nation has an ʿId (i.e. festival) and this day is our ʿId."  

أَنَّ أَبَا بَكْرٍ دَخَلَ عَلَيْهَا وَالنَّبِيُّ ﷺ عِنْدَهَا يَوْمَ فِطْرٍ أَوْ أَضْحًى وَعِنْدَهَا قَيْنَتَانِ {تُغَنِّيَانِ} بِمَا تَقَاذَفَتِ الأَنْصَارُ يَوْمَ بُعَاثَ فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ مِزْمَارُ الشَّيْطَانِ مَرَّتَيْنِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ دَعْهُمَا يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ إِنَّ لِكُلِّ قَوْمٍ عِيدًا وَإِنَّ عِيدَنَا هَذَا الْيَوْمُ  

BY Allah, I remember the Messenger of Allah ﷺ standing on the door of my apartment screening me with his mantle enabling me to see the sport of the Abyssinians as they played with their daggers in the mosque of the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upom him). He (the Holy Prophet) kept standing for my sake till I was satiated and then I went back; and thus you can well imagine how long a girl tender of age who is fond of sports (could have watched it).  

عَائِشَةُ وَاللَّهِ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُومُ عَلَى بَابِ حُجْرَتِي وَالْحَبَشَةُ يَلْعَبُونَ بِحِرَابِهِمْ فِي مَسْجِدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَسْتُرُنِي بِرِدَائِهِ لِكَىْ أَنْظُرَ إِلَى لَعِبِهِمْ ثُمَّ يَقُومُ مِنْ أَجْلِي حَتَّى أَكُونَ أَنَا الَّتِي أَنْصَرِفُ فَاقْدُرُوا قَدْرَ الْجَارِيَةِ الْحَدِيثَةِ السِّنِّ حَرِيصَةً عَلَى اللَّهْوِ  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came (to my apartment) while there were two girls with me singing the song of the Battle of Buʿāth. He lay down on the bed and turned around his face. Then Abū Bakr came and he scolded me and said: Oh! this musical instrument of the devil in the house of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ? The Messenger of Allah ﷺ turned towards him and said, "Leave them alone."

When he ˹the Prophet˺ became unattentive, I hinted at them and they went out. It was the day of the ʿĪd ˹festival˺ and the black men were playing with shields and spears. ˹I do not remember˺ whether I asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ or whether he asked me: "Would you like to watch?". I said: Yes. I stood behind him with his face parallel to my face, and he said: "O Banū Arfadah, be busy ˹in your sport.˺" until I was satiated. He said ˹to me˺, "Is that enough?" I said: Yes. Upon this he said, "Then go."  

دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَعِنْدِي جَارِيَتَانِ تُغَنِّيَانِ بِغِنَاءِ بُعَاثٍ، فَاضْطَجَعَ عَلَى الْفِرَاشِ وَحَوَّلَ وَجْهَهُ۔ فَدَخَلَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَانْتَهَرَنِي وَقَالَ: مِزْمَارُ الشَّيْطَانِ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ؟! فَأَقْبَلَ عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ: «دَعْهُمَا۔»

فَلَمَّا غَفَلَ غَمَزْتُهُمَا فَخَرَجَتَا، وَكَانَ يَوْمَ عِيدٍ يَلْعَبُ السُّودَانُ بِالدَّرَقِ وَالْحِرَابِ۔ فَإِمَّا سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَإِمَّا قَالَ: «تَشْتَهِينَ تَنْظُرِينَ؟» فَقُلْتُ: نَعَمْ۔ فَأَقَامَنِي وَرَاءَهُ خَدِّي عَلَى خَدِّهِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ: «دُونَكُمْ يَا بَنِي أَرْفَدَةَ۔» حَتَّى إِذَا مَلِلْتُ قَالَ: «حَسْبُكِ؟» قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ۔ قَالَ: «فَاذْهَبِي۔»  

"The black people came and played in front of the Prophet ﷺ on the day of 'Eid. He called me and I watched them from over his shoulder, and I continued to watch them until I was the one who moved away."  

جَاءَ السُّودَانُ يَلْعَبُونَ بَيْنَ يَدَىِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِي يَوْمِ عِيدٍ فَدَعَانِي فَكُنْتُ أَطَّلِعُ إِلَيْهِمْ مِنْ فَوْقِ عَاتِقِهِ فَمَا زِلْتُ أَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِمْ حَتَّى كُنْتُ أَنَا الَّتِي انْصَرَفْتُ  

"I remember the Messenger of Allah ﷺ covering me with his Rida' while I was watching the Ethiopians playing in the masjid, until I got bored. So you should understand the keenness of young girls to play."  

رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَسْتُرُنِي بِرِدَائِهِ وَأَنَا أَنْظُرُ إِلَى الْحَبَشَةِ يَلْعَبُونَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ حَتَّى أَكُونَ أَنَا أَسْأَمُ فَاقْدُرُوا قَدْرَ الْجَارِيَةِ الْحَدِيثَةِ السِّنِّ الْحَرِيصَةِ عَلَى اللَّهْوِ  

[Machine] That Abu Bakr entered upon her and had two servant girls with him during the days of Mina, who were playing the drums. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was reclining on his garment, so he scolded them. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then uncovered his face and said, "Leave them, O Abu Bakr, for these are the days of celebration." Aisha also said, "I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ covering me with his garment while I watched the Abyssinians playing in the mosque until I became bored, and then I would sit and estimate the age of the young servant girl who was avidly interested in playing."  

أَنَّ أَبَا بَكْرٍ دَخَلَ عَلَيْهَا وَعِنْدَهَا جَارِيَتَانِ فِي أَيَّامِ مِنًى تَضْرِبَانِ بِدُفَّيْنِ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مُسَجّىً عَلَيْهِ بِثَوْبِهِ فَانْتَهَرَهُمَا فَكَشَفَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَجْهَهُ فَقَالَ دَعْهُنَّ يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ فَإِنَّهَا أَيَّامُ عِيدٍ وَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَسْتُرُنِي بِرِدَائِهِ وَأَنَا أَنْظُرُ إِلَى الْحَبَشَةِ يَلْعَبُونَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ حَتَّى أَكُونَ أَنَا أَسْأَمُ فَأَقْعُدُ فَاقْدُرُوا قَدْرَ الْجَارِيَةِ الْحَدِيثَةِ السِّنِّ الْحَرِيصَةِ عَلَى اللهْوِ  

"I remember the Messenger of Allah ﷺ covering me with his Rida' while I was watching the Ethiopians playing in the masjid, until I got bored. So you should understand the keenness of young girls to play." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1595)   

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي حُجْرَتِي يَسْتُرُنِي بِرِدَائِهِ وَأَنَا أَنْظُرُ إِلَى الْحَبَشَةِ كَيْفَ يَلْعَبُونَ حَتَّى أَكُونَ أَنَا أَسْأَمُ فَاقْدِرُوا قَدْرَ الْجَارِيَةِ الْحَدِيثَةِ السِّنِّ الْحَرِيصَةِ عَلَى اللهْوِ  

BY Allah, I remember the Messenger of Allah ﷺ standing on the door of my apartment screening me with his mantle enabling me to see the sport of the Abyssinians as they played with their daggers in the mosque of the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upom him). He (the Holy Prophet) kept standing for my sake till I was satiated and then I went back; and thus you can well imagine how long a girl tender of age who is fond of sports (could have watched it). (Using translation from Muslim 892d)  

وَاللهِ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُومُ عَلَى بَابِ حُجْرَتِي وَالْحَبَشَةُ يَلْعَبُونَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَسْتُرُنِي بِرِدَائِهِ لِكَيْ أَنْظُرَ إِلَى لَعِبِهِمْ ثُمَّ يَقُومُ مِنْ أَجْلِي حَتَّى أَكُونَ أَنَا الَّتِي أَنْصَرِفُ فَاقْدُرُوا قَدْرَ الْجَارِيَةِ الْحَدِيثَةِ السِّنِّ الْحَرِيصَةِ عَلَى اللهْوِ  

[Machine] Abu Bakr entered upon her and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was with her on the day of Eid al-Fitr or Eid al-Adha, and she had two slave girls who were playing the tambourines. Abu Bakr scolded them, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Leave them, O Abu Bakr, for every nation has a celebration, and indeed, our celebration is this day."  

أَنَّ أَبَا بَكْرٍ دَخَلَ عَلَيْهَا وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عِنْدَهَا يَوْمَ فِطْرٍ أَوْ أَضْحًى وَعِنْدَهَا جَارِيَتَانِ تَضْرِبَانِ بِدُفَّيْنِ فَانْتَهَرَهُمَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ دَعْنَا يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ إِنَّ لِكُلِّ قَوْمٍ عِيدًا وَإِنَّ عِيدَنَا هَذَا الْيَوْمَ  

[Machine] "And by Allah, I have seen the Messenger of Allah ﷺ standing at the door of my room while the Abyssinians were playing with spears, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ would cover me with his cloak so that I could see their play between his ear and shoulder. Then he would stand up for me until I left, estimating the value of the young, eager girl who was devoted to playful amusement."  

وَاللهِ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُومُ عَلَى بَابِ حُجْرَتِي وَالْحَبَشَةُ يَلْعَبُونَ بِالْحِرَابِ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَسْتُرُنِي بِرِدَائِهِ لِأَنْظُرَ إِلَى لَعِبِهِمْ مِنْ بَيْنِ أُذُنِهِ وَعَاتِقِهِ ثُمَّ يَقُومُ مِنْ أَجْلِي حَتَّى أَكُونَ أَنَا الَّتِي أَنْصَرِفُ فَاقْدُرُوا قَدْرَ الْجَارِيَةِ الْحَدِيثَةِ السِّنِّ الْحَرِيصَةِ عَلَى اللهْوِ  

"I remember the Messenger of Allah ﷺ covering me with his Rida' while I was watching the Ethiopians playing in the masjid, until I got bored. So you should understand the keenness of young girls to play." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1595)   

عَائِشَةُ وَلَمَّا قَدِمَ وَفْدُ الْحَبَشَةِ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَامُوا يَلْعَبُونَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَرَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَسْتُرُنِي بِرِدَائِهِ وَأَنَا أَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِمْ وَهُمْ يَلْعَبُونَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ حَتَّى أَكُونَ أَنَا الَّذِي أَسْأَمُ فَاقْدُرُوا قَدْرَ الْجَارِيَةِ الْحَدِيثَةِ السِّنِّ الْحَرِيصَةِ عَلَى اللَّهْوِ  

Abu Bakr came to my house while two small Ansari girls were singing beside me the stories of the Ansar concerning the Day of Buath. And they were not singers. Abu Bakr said protestingly, "Musical instruments of Satan in the house of Messenger of Allah ﷺ !" It happened on the ʿId day and Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "O Abu Bakr! There is an ʿId for every nation and this is our ʿId." (Using translation from Bukhārī 952)  

دَخَلَ عَلَيَّ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعِنْدِي جَارِيَتَانِ مِنْ جَوَارِي الْأَنْصَارِ تُغَنِّيَانِ بِمَا تَقَاوَلَتِ الْأَنْصَارُ يَوْمَ بُعَاثٍ فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ أَمِزْمَارُ الشَّيْطَانِ فِي بَيْتِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ؟ وَذَلِكَ فِي يَوْمِ عِيدٍ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ إِنَّ لِكُلَّ قَوْمٍ عِيدًا وَهَذَا عِيدُنَا»  

[Machine] "And by Allah, I truly witnessed the Messenger of Allah ﷺ standing by the door of my room, while the Abyssinians were playing with their spears inside the mosque. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ covered me with his cloak so that I could watch their play from between his ears and shoulders. Then he stood up for me until I left, so estimate the value of a young girl in pursuit of amusement for the sake of Allah."  

«وَاللهِ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُومُ عَلَى بَابِ حُجْرَتِي وَالْحَبَشَةُ يَلْعَبُونَ بِالْحِرَابِ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَسْتُرُنِي بِرِدَائِهِ لِأَنْظُرَ إِلَى لَعِبِهِمْ مِنْ بَيْنِ أُذُنَيْهِ وَعَاتِقِهِ ثُمَّ يَقُومُ مِنْ أَجْلِي حَتَّى أَكُونَ أَنَا الَّذِي أَنْصَرِفُ فَاقْدُرُوا قَدْرَ الْجَارِيَةِ الْحَدِيثَةِ السِّنِّ الْحَرِيصَةِ لِلَّهْوِ»  

[Machine] I have seen the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , standing at the door of my room while the Abyssinians played with their spears in the mosque, and the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , would cover me with his cloak so that I could watch their play. He would stand up for me until I had finished watching, and then he would leave. May you measure, O son of my sister, the quantity of the young, eager slave girl's talk about frivolous matters.  

«لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُومُ عَلَى بَابِ حُجْرَتِي وَالْحَبَشَةُ يَلْعَبُونَ بِحِرَابِهِمْ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَسْتُرُنِي بِرِدَائِهِ لِكَيْ أَنْظُرَ إِلَى لَعِبِهِمْ فَيَقُومُ مِنْ أَجْلِي قَائِمًا حَتَّى كُنْتُ أَكُونُ أَنَا أَنْصَرِفُ فَاقْدُرْ يَا ابْنَ أُخْتِي قَدْرَ الْجَارِيَةِ الْحَدِيثَةِ السِّنِّ الْحَرِيصَةِ عَلَى اللهْوِ»  

[Machine] Abu Bakr entered upon her and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was with her on the day of Eid al-Fitr or Eid al-Adha, and she had two young girls who were singing. Abu Bakr said, "Are these the musical instruments of Satan?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Leave them, O Abu Bakr, for every nation has a festival and this is our festival."  

أَنَّ أَبَا بَكْرٍ دَخَلَ عَلَيْهَا وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عِنْدَهَا فِي يَوْمِ فِطْرٍ أَوْ أَضْحًى وَعِنْدَهَا قَيْنَتَانِ تُغَنِّيَانِ فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ مِزْمَارُ الشَّيْطَانِ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «دَعْنَا يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ إِنَّ لِكُلِّ قَوْمٍ عِيدًا وَإِنَّ عِيدُنَا هَذَا الْيَوْمُ»  

"The black people came and played in front of the Prophet ﷺ on the day of 'Eid. He called me and I watched them from over his shoulder, and I continued to watch them until I was the one who moved away." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1594)  

«جَاءَ السُّودَانُ يَلْعَبُونَ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِي يَوْمِ عِيدٍ فَدَعَانِي وَكُنْتُ أَطَّلِعُ إِلَيْهِمْ مِنْ فَوْقِ عَاتِقِهِ فَمَا زِلْتُ أَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِمْ حَتَّى كُنْتُ أَنَا الَّتِي انْصَرَفْتُ»  

The Prophet ﷺ was screening me with his Rida' (garment covering the upper part of the body) while I was looking at the Ethiopians who were playing in the courtyard of the mosque. (I continued watching) till I was satisfied. So you may deduce from this event how a little girl (who has not reached the age of puberty) who is eager to enjoy amusement should be treated in this respect. (Using translation from Bukhārī 5236)  

رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ «يَسْتُرُنِي بِرِدَائِهِ وَأَنَا أَنْظُرُ إِلَى الْحَبَشَةِ يَلْعَبُونَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ حَتَّى أَكُونَ أَنَا أَسْأَمُ فَاقْدُرُوا قَدْرَ الْجَارِيَةِ الْحَدِيثَةِ السِّنِّ الْحَرِيصَةِ عَلَى اللهْوِ»

BY Allah, I remember the Messenger of Allah ﷺ standing on the door of my apartment screening me with his mantle enabling me to see the sport of the Abyssinians as they played with their daggers in the mosque of the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upom him). He (the Holy Prophet) kept standing for my sake till I was satiated and then I went back; and thus you can well imagine how long a girl tender of age who is fond of sports (could have watched it). (Using translation from Muslim 892d)  

وَاللهِ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ «يَقُومُ عَلَى بَابِ حُجْرَتِي وَالْحَبَشَةُ يَلْعَبُونَ بِحِرَابٍ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ يَسْتُرُنِي بِرِدَائِهِ لِكَيْ أَنْظُرَ إِلَى لَعِبِهِمْ ثُمَّ يَقُومُ مِنْ أَجْلِي حَتَّى أَكُونَ أَنَا الَّتِي أَمَلُّ فَاقْدُرُوا بِقَدْرِ الْجَارِيَةِ الْحَدِيثَةِ السِّنِّ الْحَرِيصَةِ عَلَى اللهْوِ»  

Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to my house while two girls were singing beside me the songs of Buath (a story about the war between the two tribes of the Ansar, the Khazraj and the Aus, before Islam). The Prophet ﷺ lay down and turned his face to the other side. Then Abu Bakr came and spoke to me harshly saying, "Musical instruments of Satan near the Prophet ﷺ ?" Messenger of Allah ﷺ turned his face towards him and said, "Leave them." When Abu Bakr became inattentive, I signaled to those girls to go out and they left. It was the day of ʿId, and the Black people were playing with shields and spears; so either I requested the Prophet ﷺ or he asked me whether I would like to see the display. I replied in the affirmative. Then the Prophet ﷺ made me stand behind him and my cheek was touching his cheek and he was saying, "Carry on! O Bani Arfida," till I got tired. The Prophet ﷺ asked me, "Are you satisfied (Is that sufficient for you)?" I replied in the affirmative and he told me to leave. (Using translation from Bukhārī 949)   

دَخَلَ عَلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَعِنْدِي جَارِيَتَانِ تُغَنِّيَانِ بِغِنَاءِ بُعَاثٍ فَاضْطَجَعَ عَلَى الْفِرَاشِ وَحَوَّلَ وَجْهَهُ وَدَخَلَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ ؓ فَانْتَهَرَنِي وَقَالَ مِزْمَارَةُ الشَّيْطَانِ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ؟ فَأَقْبَلَ عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ دَعْهُمَا فَلَمَّا غَفَلَ غَمَزْتُهُمَا فَخَرَجَتَا وَقَالَتْ كَانَ يَوْمُ عِيدٍ يَلْعَبُ السُّودَانُ بِالدَّرَقِ وَالْحِرَابِ فَإِمَّا سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَإِمَّا قَالَ تَشْتَهِينَ تَنْظُرِينَ؟ فَقُلْتُ نَعَمْ فَأَقَامَنِي وَرَاءَهُ خَدِّي عَلَى خَدِّهِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ دُونَكُمْ يَا بَنِي أَرْفِدَةَ حَتَّى إِذَا مَلَلْتُ قَالَ حَسْبُكِ؟ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَ اذْهَبِي  

[Machine] "By Allah, I have indeed seen the Messenger of Allah ﷺ standing at the door of my room while the Abyssinians were playing with spears in the Mosque. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ would cover me with his cloak so that I could watch their play between his ears and eyes. Then he would stand up for me until I leave. Estimate the value of a young servant girl eager for play."  

وَاللهِ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُومُ عَلَى بَابِ حُجْرَتِي وَالْحَبَشَةُ يَلْعَبُونَ بِالْحِرَابِ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَسْتُرُنِي بِرِدَائِهِ لِأَنْظُرَ إِلَى لَعِبِهِمْ بَيْنَ أُذُنَيْهِ وَعَيْنَيْهِ ثُمَّ يَقُومُ مِنْ أَجْلِي حَتَّى أَكُونَ أَنَا الَّتِي أَنْصَرِفُ فَاقْدُرُوا قَدْرَ الْجَارِيَةِ الْحَدِيثَةِ السِّنِّ الْحَرِيصَةِ عَلَى اللهْوِ
