Sad bin Waqqas reported that Umar sought permission from Allahs Messenger ﷺ to visit him when some women of the Quraish were busy in talking with him and raising their voices above his Voiee. WhenUmar sought permission they stood up and went hurriedly behind the curtain. Allahs Messenger ﷺ gave him permission smilingly. Thereupon Umar said: Allahs Messenger, may Allah keep you happy all your life. Then Allahs Messenger ﷺ said: I wonder at these women who were with me and no sooner did they hear your voice, they immediately went behind the curtain. Thereupon Umar said: Allahs Messenger, you have more right that they should fear you. Then Umar (addressing the women) said: O ye enemies of yourselves, do you fear me and fear not the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ? They said: Yes, you are harsh and strict as compared to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . Thereupon, Allahs Messenger (maypeace be upon him) said: By Him in Whose Hand is my life, if satan would encounter you in the way he would certainly take a different way from that of yours.
