I heard my father saying, “The Prophet (ﷺ) led us, and prayed a two-rak`at Zuhr prayer and then a tworak`
at `Asr prayer at Al-Batha’ [??] with a short spear (planted) in front of him (as a Sutra) while
women and donkeys were passing in front of him (beyond that stick).

The distance between the Musalla of Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) and the wall was just sufficient for a sheep to
pass through .

The distance between the wall of the mosque and the pulpit was hardly enough for a sheep to pass
through.

The Prophet (ﷺ) used to get a Harba planted in front of him (as a Sutra) and pray behind it.

that he had heard his father saying, “Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) came to us at midday and water was brought for
his ablution. He performed ablution and led us in Zuhr and `Asr prayers with a short stpear (or stick)
planted in front of him (as a Sutra), while women and donkeys were passing beyond it.”

Whenever the Prophet (ﷺ) went for answering the call of nature, I and another boy used to go after him
with a staff, a stick or a short spear (or stick) and a tumbler of water and when he finished from
answering the call of nature we would hand that tumbler of water to him.

Ibn `Umar said, “The Prophet (ﷺ) arrived at Mecca and sent for `Uthman bin Talha. He opened the gate of
the Ka`ba and the Prophet, Bilal, Usama bin Zaid and `Uthman bin Talha entered the Ka`ba and then
they closed its door (from inside). They stayed there for an hour, and then came out.” Ibn `Umar
added, “I quickly went to Bilal and asked him (whether the Prophet (ﷺ) had prayed). Bilal replied, ‘He
prayed in it.’ I asked, ‘Where?’ He replied, ‘Between the two pillars.’ “Ibn `Umar added, “I forgot to
ask how many rak`at he (the Prophet) had prayed in the Ka`ba.”

See translation forhadith 484above

Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) sent some horse men to Najd and they brought a man called Thumama bin Uthal from
Bani Hanifa. They fastened him to one of the pillars of the mosque.

I was standing in the mosque and somebody threw a gravel at me. I looked and found that he was
`Umar bin Al-Khattab. He said to me, “Fetch those two men to me.” When I did, he said to them,
“Who are you? (Or) where do you come from?” They replied, “We are from Ta’if.” `Umar said, “Were
you from this city (Medina) I would have punished you for raising your voices in the mosque of
Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ).”
