أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَاتِمُ بْنُ وَرْدَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا بُرْدُ بْنُ سِنَانٍ أَبُو الْعَلَائِ عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ اسْتَفْتَحْتُ الْبَابَ وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصَلِّي تَطَوُّعًا وَالْبَابُ عَلَی الْقِبْلَةِ فَمَشَی عَنْ يَمِينِهِ أَوْ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ فَفَتَحَ الْبَابَ ثُمَّ رَجَعَ إِلَی مُصَلَّاهُ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 1211
It was narrated that ‘Aishah, may Allah be pleased with her, said: “I knocked at the door when the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم was offering a voluntary prayer. The door was in the direction of the Qiblah so he took a few steps to his right or left and opened the door, then he went back to where he was praying.”
