The things which annul the prayers were mentioned before me. They said, "Prayer is annulled by a dog, a donkey and a woman (if they pass in front of the praying people)." I said, "You have made us (i.e. women) dogs. I saw the Prophet ﷺ praying while I used to lie in my bed between him and the Qibla. Whenever I was in need of something, I would slip away. for I disliked to face him."  

البخاري:٥١١حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ خَلِيلٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُسْهِرٍ عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ عَنْ مُسْلِمٍ يَعْنِي ابْنَ صُبَيْحٍ عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ

أَنَّهُ ذُكِرَ عِنْدَهَا مَا يَقْطَعُ الصَّلاَةَ فَقَالُوا يَقْطَعُهَا الْكَلْبُ وَالْحِمَارُ وَالْمَرْأَةُ قَالَتْ قَدْ جَعَلْتُمُونَا كِلاَبًا لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ يُصَلِّي وَإِنِّي لَبَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ الْقِبْلَةِ وَأَنَا مُضْطَجِعَةٌ عَلَى السَّرِيرِ فَتَكُونُ لِي الْحَاجَةُ فَأَكْرَهُ أَنْ أَسْتَقْبِلَهُ فَأَنْسَلُّ انْسِلاَلاً وَعَنِ الأَعْمَشِ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنِ الأَسْوَدِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ نَحْوَهُ

The things which annul prayer were mentioned before me (and those were): a dog, a donkey and a woman. I said, "You have compared us (women) to donkeys and dogs. By Allah! I saw the Prophet ﷺ praying while I used to lie in (my) bed between him and the Qibla. Whenever I was in need of something, I disliked to sit and trouble the Prophet. So, I would slip away by the side of his feet."

[Machine] "Some people say that prayer is interrupted by the presence of a dog, a donkey, or a woman. Aisha replied, 'You have wronged us by comparing us to dogs and donkeys. I have seen the Messenger of Allah ﷺ praying opposite the bed while I was in between him and the Qibla (direction of prayer). And sometimes I would have a need, so I would move aside from the side of the bed, disliking to face him.'"

[Machine] "Some people say that prayer is disrupted by dogs, donkeys, and women. She said, 'Don't I see that they have replaced us with dogs and donkeys? Perhaps I have seen the Messenger of Allah ﷺ praying at night while I am lying on the bed between him and the Qibla, and then I have a need, so I slide out from the foot of the bed, disliking to face him directly.'"
