حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ الْقَاسِمَ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ بِئْسَمَا عَدَلْتُمُونَا بِالْحِمَارِ وَالْكَلْبِ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يُصَلِّي وَأَنَا مُعْتَرِضَةٌ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ فَإِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَسْجُدَ غَمَزَ رِجْلِي فَضَمَمْتُهَا إِلَىَّ ثُمَّ يَسْجُدُ .

বাংলা অনুবাদ
। ‘আয়িশাহ্ (রাঃ) সূত্রে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, অত্যন্ত দুঃখের বিষয় যে, তোমরা (সালাত ভঙ্গের ব্যাপারে) আমাদেরকে গাধা ও কুকুরের পর্যায়ভুক্ত করেছ। অথচ আমি রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম-কে এরূপ অবস্থায় সালাত আদায় করতে দেখেছি যে, আমি তাঁর সামনে আড়া-আড়িভাবে শুয়ে থাকতাম। তিনি সিজদা্ করতে চাইলে আমার পায়ে চিমটি কাটতেন, এতে আমি আমার পা গুটিয়ে নিতাম। অতঃপর তিনি সিজদা্ করতেন। সহীহ : বুখারী।
