١٠۔١٦٧ باب صَلاَةِ النِّسَاءِ خَلْفَ الرِّجَالِ

bukhari:874Abū Nuʿaym > Ibn ʿUyaynah > Isḥāq > Anas

The Prophet ﷺ prayed in the house of Um Sulaim; and I, along with an orphan stood behind him while Um Sulaim (stood) behind us.  

البخاري:٨٧٤حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ

صَلَّى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فِي بَيْتِ أُمِّ سُلَيْمٍ فَقُمْتُ وَيَتِيمٌ خَلْفَهُ وَأُمُّ سُلَيْمٍ خَلْفَنَا  

bukhari:875Yaḥyá b. Qazaʿah > Ibrāhīm b. Saʿd > al-Zuhrī > Hind b. al-Ḥārith > Um Salamah

Whenever Messenger of Allah ﷺ completed the Salat with Taslim, the women used to get up immediately and Messenger of Allah ﷺ would remain at his place for sometime before getting up. The subnarrator (Az-Zuhri) said, "We think, and Allah knows better, that he did so, so that the women might leave before the men could catch up with them."  

البخاري:٨٧٥حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ قَزَعَةَ حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ هِنْدَ بِنْتِ الْحَارِثِ عَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ قَالَتْ

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا سَلَّمَ قَامَ النِّسَاءُ حِينَ يَقْضِي تَسْلِيمَهُ وَهُوَ يَمْكُثُ فِي مَقَامِهِ يَسِيرًا قَبْلَ أَنْ يَقُومَ قَالَتْ نُرَى وَاللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ أَنَّ ذَلِكَ كَانَ لِكَىْ يَنْصَرِفَ النِّسَاءُ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُدْرِكَهُنَّ الرِّجَالُ
