Arabic Text
وَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَسْتُرُنِي بِرِدَائِهِ وَأَنَا أَنْظُرُ إِلَى الْحَبَشَةِ يَلْعَبُونَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ حَتَّى أَكُونَ أَنَا أَسْأَمُ فَأَقْعُدُ فَاقْدُرُوا قَدْرَ الْجَارِيَةِ الْحَدِيثَةِ السِّنِّ الْحَرِيصَةِ عَلَى اللَّهْوِ
English Translation
It was narrated from Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that she said: 'I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ covering me with his robe while I watched the Abyssinians playing in the mosque until I was the one who tired of watching. So judge by the standard of the young girl who is eager for entertainment.'
