(emigration)?" The Prophet said, 'Yes." So Abu Bakr waited to
accompany the Prophet and fed two she-camels he had on the leaves of
As-Samur tree regularly for four months One day while we were sitting
in our house at midday, someone said to Abu Bakr, "Here is Allah's
Apostle, coming with his head and a part of his face covered with a
cloth-covering at an hour he never used to come to us." Abu Bakr said,
"Let my father and mother be sacrificed for you, (O Prophet)! An
urgent matter must have brought you here at this hour." The Prophet
came and asked the permission to enter, and he was allowed. The
Prophet entered and said to Abu Bakr, "Let those who are with you, go
out." Abu Bakr replied, "(There is no stranger); they are your family.
Let my father be sacrificed for you, O Allah's Apostle!" The Prophet
said, "I have been allowed to leave (Mecca)." Abu Bakr said, " I shall
accompany you, O Allah's Apostles, Let my father be sacrificed for
you!" The Prophet said, "Yes," Abu Bakr said, 'O Allah's Apostles! Let

bag. And Asma' bint Abu Bakr cut a piece of her girdle and tied the
mouth of the leather bag with it. That is why she was called
Dhat-an-Nitaqaln. Then the Prophet and Abu Bakr went to a cave in a
mountain called Thour and remained there for three nights. 'Abdullah
bin Abu Bakr. who was a young intelligent man. used to stay with them
at night and leave before dawn so that in the morning, he would he
with the Quraish at Mecca as if he had spent the night among them. If
he heard of any plot contrived by the Quraish against the Prophet and
Abu Bakr, he would understand it and (return to) inform them of it
when it became dark. 'Amir bin Fuhaira, the freed slave of Abu Bakr
used to graze a flock of milch sheep for them and he used to take
those sheep to them when an hour had passed after the 'Isha prayer.

another and the latter throws his at the former and the barter is
complete and valid without examining the two objects or being

Ishtimal-as-Samma, i e., to cover one's shoulder with one's garment

women. Look! Her skin is greener than her clothes!" When 'AbdurRahman

from another wife. She said, "By Allah! I have done no wrong to him
but he is impotent and is as useless to me as this," holding and
showing the fringe of her garment, 'Abdur-Rahman said, "By Allah, O
Allah's Apostle! She has told a lie! I am very strong and can satisfy
her but she is disobedient and wants to go back to Rifa'a." Allah's
Apostle said, to her, "If that is your intention, then know that it is
unlawful for you to remarry Rifa'a unless Abdur-Rahman has had sexual
intercourse with you." Then the Prophet saw two boys with
'Abdur-Rahman and asked (him), "Are these your sons?" On that

other against the Prophet but I was afraid of him. One day he
dismounted his riding animal and went among the trees of Arak to
answer the call of nature, and when he returned, I asked him and he
said, "(They were) 'Aisha and Hafsa." Then he added, "We never used to
give significance to ladies in the days of the Pre-lslamic period of
ignorance, but when Islam came and Allah mentioned their rights, we
used to give them their rights but did not allow them to interfere in
our affairs. Once there was some dispute between me and my wife and
she answered me back in a loud voice. I said to her, 'Strange! You can
retort in this way?' She said, 'Yes. Do you say this to me while your
daughter troubles Allah's Apostle?' So I went to Hafsa and said to
her, 'I warn you not to disobey Allah and His Apostle.' I first went
to Hafsa and then to Um Salama and told her the same. She said to me,
'O 'Umar! It surprises me that you interfere in our affairs so much
that you would poke your nose even into the affairs of Allah's Apostle
and his wives.' So she rejected my advice. There was an Ansari man;
whenever he was absent from Allah's Apostle and I was present there, I
used to convey to him what had happened (on that day), and when I was
absent and he was present there, he used to convey to me what had
happened as regards news from Allah's Apostle . During that time all
the rulers of the nearby lands had surrendered to Allah's Apostle
except the king of Ghassan in Sham, and we were afraid that he might
attack us. All of a sudden the Ansari came and said, 'A great event
has happened!' I asked him, 'What is it? Has the Ghassani (king)
come?' He said, 'Greater than that! Allah's Apostle has divorced his
wives! I went to them and found all of them weeping in their
dwellings, and the Prophet had ascended to an upper room of his. At
the door of the room there was a slave to whom I went and said, "Ask
the permission for me to enter." He admitted me and I entered to see
the Prophet lying on a mat that had left its imprint on his side.
Under his head there was a leather pillow stuffed with palm fires.
Behold! There were some hides hanging there and some grass for
tanning. Then I mentioned what I had said to Hafsa and Um Salama and
what reply Um Salama had given me. Allah's Apostle smiled and stayed
