Sahih al-Bukhari 837 (Book 10, Hadith 230) #810
Staying After Prayers for Women's Privacy

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) would stay in his place after finishing prayers so that the women could leave before the men.

Narrated Um Salama: Whenever Allah's Messenger finished his prayers with Taslim, the women would get up and he would stay on for a while in his place before getting up. Ibn Shihab said, "I think (and Allah knows better), that the purpose of his stay was that the women might leave before the men who had finished their prayer".
حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا الزُّهْرِيُّ، عَنْ هِنْدٍ بِنْتِ الْحَارِثِ، أَنَّ أُمَّ سَلَمَةَ ـ رضى الله عنها ـ قَالَتْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ إِذَا سَلَّمَ قَامَ النِّسَاءُ حِينَ يَقْضِي تَسْلِيمَهُ، وَمَكَثَ يَسِيرًا قَبْلَ أَنْ يَقُومَ‏.‏ قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ فَأُرَى ـ وَاللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ ـ أَنَّ مُكْثَهُ لِكَىْ يَنْفُذَ النِّسَاءُ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُدْرِكَهُنَّ مَنِ انْصَرَفَ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was a great example of how to treat people with respect and kindness. He would stay in his place after finishing prayers so that the women could leave before the men. This was done to ensure that they had privacy and were not seen by any of the men who were still present. This is an important lesson for us all; we should always be mindful of others' privacy and respect their wishes when it comes to matters such as these. We should also strive to be kind and considerate towards one another at all times.
