Sunan Ibn Majah 975 (Book 5, Hadith 173) #30327
Praying Together as a Household

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) led a woman and Anas in prayer, with Anas standing to the right of the Prophet and the woman standing behind them.

It was narrated that Anas said: "The Messenger of Allah led a woman of his household and myself in prayer. I stood to his right and the woman stood behind us".
حَدَّثَنَا نَصْرُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْمُخْتَارِ، عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ أَنَسٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، قَالَ صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ ـ بِامْرَأَةٍ مِنْ أَهْلِهِ، وَبِي، فَأَقَامَنِي عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَصَلَّتِ الْمَرْأَةُ خَلْفَنَا

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about how men and women can pray together as part of one household. It was narrated by Anas ibn Malik that he was once praying with the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). The Prophet stood in front while Anas stood to his right side and a woman from his household stood behind them. This shows that men and women can pray together in one congregation without any segregation between them. It also teaches us that we should all be respectful towards each other when praying together as part of one family or community. We should not be distracted by gender differences but instead focus on our prayers to Allah SWT. Furthermore, this hadith also serves as an example for us to follow when it comes to leading prayers at home or in our communities; we should ensure that everyone is included regardless of their gender or age so they can benefit from the blessings of prayer too!
