'A'isha asked: What disrupts the prayer? We said: The woman and the ass. Upon this she remarked: Is the woman an ugly animal? I lay in front of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ like the bier of a corpse and he said prayer.  

مسلم:٥١٢cوَحَدَّثَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ حَفْصٍ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ قَالَ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ مَا يَقْطَعُ الصَّلاَةَ قَالَ فَقُلْنَا الْمَرْأَةُ وَالْحِمَارُ فَقَالَتْ

إِنَّ الْمَرْأَةَ لَدَابَّةُ سَوْءٍ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُنِي بَيْنَ يَدَىْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ مُعْتَرِضَةً كَاعْتِرَاضِ الْجِنَازَةِ وَهُوَ يُصَلِّي

[Machine] They say that prayer is nullified by a woman, a dog, and a donkey. She said, "Indeed, I saw myself interrupting in front of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, just like interrupting a funeral."  

أحمد:٢٥٠٢٤حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ حَفْصٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عُرْوَةَ بْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ قَالَ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ مَا يَقُولُونَ يَقْطَعُ الصَّلَاةَ؟ قَالَ

يَقُولُونَ يَقْطَعُ الصَّلَاةَ الْمَرْأَةُ وَالْكَلْبُ وَالْحِمَارُ قَالَتْ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُنِي مُعْتَرِضَةً بَيْنَ يَدَيْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ كَاعْتِرَاضِ الْجِنَازَةِ

[Machine] Aisha, indeed, women are like harmful animals. I have seen myself standing before the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, blocking his way, like a funeral procession, while he was praying. Shu'bah said: "There was a distance between her and the qiblah, as far as I understand."

[Machine] Aisha said, "I saw myself in front of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ holding a funeral prayer like that of a dead body while he was praying."
