A Day in The Life of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) by Abd a-Wahhab b. Nasir al-Turayri

The Dqy's Nap
Bakr came and requested permission to come in. He was admitted
with the Prophet remaining in his position. The Prophet attended
to the business he came for and then Abu Bakr left. 'Omar then
came, requested entry, was admitted with the Prophet remaining in
the same position. He had his business attended to and left. Then
'Othman came and requested entry. The Prophet sat up and
ensured that his clothes were properly worn before admitting
'Othman. He came in, spoke to the Prophet, had his business
attended to and left. 'A'ishah said: "Messenger of God, Abu Bakr
came in and you did not care to arrange anything,24 then 'Omar
came in and you did the same. When 'Othman came, you sat up
and ensured that you were properly dressed." The Prophet said: "I
feel shy before a man in whose presence angels feel shy. 'Othman is
a bashful person and I feared that if I admitted him while I was in
that position that his shyness would prevent him from putting his
business to me."
'A'ishah described the Prophet's status when he was at home
alone with his wife. She said: "When he was in his home's privacy,
he was the easiest and most generous of people. He was just a man
like any of you, except that he was often smiling and laughing. He
was not distinguished from any human being, and he was always
attending to his family's needs. He would mend his shoes and
clothes, milk his sheep and serve himself. He would do at home
what any man would do."
Here we see a scene of spiritual integration in the Prophet's
life. His home consisted of one small room for each of his wives.
There was little in which his wives needed any help so as to be
"attending to his family's needs''. Indeed this description reflects
the moral summit the Prophet attained, sharing with his family
whatever they were doing so that they would feel that the home
belonged to all of them and that they shared their life together. His
attitude at home sends many messages that are focused on the care
a husband should take of his wife and the importance the Prophet
attached to family life. All blessings are due to the one who was for
mankind the best of humans, and was the best of people to his
family.
24 What she meant was that the Prophet did not care to change how he appeared.
