dog, a donkey and a woman (if they pass in front of the praying people).” I said, “You have made us
(i.e. women) dogs. I saw the Prophet (ﷺ) praying while I used to lie in my bed between him and the Qibla.
Whenever I was in need of something, I would slip away. for I disliked to face him.”

The Prophet (ﷺ) used to pray while I was sleeping across in his bed in front of him. Whenever he wanted

The things which annul prayer were mentioned before me (and those were): a dog, a donkey and a
woman. I said, “You have compared us (women) to donkeys and dogs. By Allah! I saw the Prophet (ﷺ)
