حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مَالِکٌ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِکٍ أَنَّ جَدَّتَهُ مُلَيْکَةَ دَعَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِطَعَامٍ صَنَعَتْهُ فَأَکَلَ مِنْهُ فَقَالَ قُومُوا فَلِأُصَلِّيَ بِکُمْ فَقُمْتُ إِلَی حَصِيرٍ لَنَا قَدْ اسْوَدَّ مِنْ طُولِ مَا لَبِثَ فَنَضَحْتُهُ بِمَائٍ فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَالْيَتِيمُ مَعِي وَالْعَجُوزُ مِنْ وَرَائِنَا فَصَلَّی بِنَا رَکْعَتَيْنِ
صحیح بخاری · Hadith 860
Narrated Anas bin Malik: My grandmother Mulaika invited Allah's Apostle for a meal which she had prepared specially for him. He ate some of it and said, "Get up. I shall lead you in the prayer." I brought a mat that had become black owing to excessive use and I sprinkled water on it. Allah's Apostle stood on it and prayed two rak`at; and the orphan was with me (in the first row), and the old lady stood behind us.
