Sahih al-Bukhari 4252 (Book 64, Hadith 468)
prayer, suddenly Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) lifted the curtain of `Aisha’s dwelling and looked at them while they
were in the rows of the prayers and smiled. Abu Bakr retreated to join the row, thinking that Allah’s
Apostle wanted to come out for the prayer. The Muslims were about to be put to trial in their prayer
(i.e. were about to give up praying) because of being overjoyed at seeing Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ). But Allah’s
Apostle beckoned them with his hand to complete their prayer and then entered the dwelling and let
fall the curtain.
