Sahih Muslim 512f (Book 4, Hadith 307) #8312
Prostration Etiquette

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was sleeping with his wife Aisha in front of him and her legs were between him and the Qibla. When he prostrated himself, he pinched her to move her legs and when he stood up, she stretched them out.

'A'isha reported: I was sleeping in front of the messenger ef Allah with my legs between him and the Qibla. When he prostrated himself he pinched me and I drew up my legs, and when be stood up, I stretched them out. She said: At that time there were no lamps in the houses.
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، قَالَ قَرَأْتُ عَلَى مَالِكٍ عَنْ أَبِي النَّضْرِ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ كُنْتُ أَنَامُ بَيْنَ يَدَىْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ وَرِجْلاَىَ فِي قِبْلَتِهِ فَإِذَا سَجَدَ غَمَزَنِي فَقَبَضْتُ رِجْلَىَّ وَإِذَا قَامَ بَسَطْتُهُمَا - قَالَتْ - وَالْبُيُوتُ يَوْمَئِذٍ لَيْسَ فِيهَا مَصَابِيحُ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the etiquette of prostration during prayer. It shows that even in a situation where there is no light to guide one's movements during prayer, it is important to be mindful of one's positioning so as not to disturb others or cause any harm. The Prophet Muhammad showed this by pinching his wife Aisha when she was in an incorrect position during prostration so that she could adjust herself without disturbing anyone else. This hadith teaches us that we should always be mindful of our actions and how they may affect those around us while praying or engaging in any other activity. We should also strive to maintain proper etiquette at all times regardless of the situation we are in.
