صحیح مسلم · Hadith 3630

A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) reported: Never did I find any woman more loving to me than Sauda bint Zam'a. I wished I could be exactly like her who was passionate. As she became old, she had made over her day (which she had to spend) with Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) to 'A'isha. She said: I have made over my day with you to 'A'isha. So Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) allotted two days to 'A'isha, her own day (when it was her turn) and that of Sauda.
