Ḥadīth 1

1- عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ فَضَالَةَ بْنِ أَيُّوبَ عَنْ أَبِي الْمَغْرَاءِ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) لِلنِّسَاءِ لا تُطَوِّلْنَ صَلاتَكُنَّ لِتَمْنَعْنَ أَزْوَاجَكُنَّ.

1. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn abu ‘Abd Allah from his father from Fadalah ibn Ayyub from abu al-Mighra’ from abu Basir who has said the following: “Abu Ja‘far (a.s.), has said that the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, has said to women, ‘You must not prolong your Salat (prayer) to prevent your husbands.’”

2- عَنْهُ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ الْقَاسِمِ عَنْ أَبِي جَمِيلَةَ عَنْ ضُرَيْسٍ الْكُنَاسِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ إِنَّ امْرَأَةً أَتَتْ رَسُولَ اللهِ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) لِبَعْضِ الْحَاجَةِ فَقَالَ لَهَا لَعَلَّكِ مِنَ الْمُسَوِّفَاتِ قَالَتْ وَمَا الْمُسَوِّفَاتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ الْمَرْأَةُ الَّتِي يَدْعُوهَا زَوْجُهَا لِبَعْضِ الْحَاجَةِ فَلا تَزَالُ تُسَوِّفُهُ حَتَّى يَنْعُسَ زَوْجُهَا وَيَنَامَ فَتِلْكَ لا تَزَالُ الْمَلائِكَةُ تَلْعَنُهَا حَتَّى يَسْتَيْقِظَ زَوْجُهَا.

2. It is narrated from the narrator of the previous Hadith from Musa ibn al-Qasim from abu Jamilah from Durays al-Kunasiy from Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) who said: "Once a woman came to the Messenger of Allah (sw) for a certain need and he said to her, ‘Perhaps you are of the Musawwifat .’ She asked, ‘And what is the Musawwifat, O Messenger of Allah?’ He replied, ‘It is a woman whose husband calls her for something that he needs but she procrastinates until her husband begins to slumber and goes to sleep. The angels continue cursing her until her husband wakes up.’"
