Re: Calling his Name!!
The Prophet once addressed Aisha: “I know when you are angry with me or not ” Aisha asked: “But how is that Messenger of Allah ?” Prophet Muhammad replied; “When you are annoyed you swear by the God of Abraham, & when you are in good terms with me you swear by the God of Muhammad ”. So she said; “But by God I never desert you, it’s only your name that I leave out.
This shows that Quranic teachings doesn’t debar woman from taking his husbands name.
- Aisha radiallaahu 'anhaa said: That she accompanied the Prophet on a certain journey. At that time she was a mere girl and was neither fat nor bulky. The Prophet asked the people to move on, and they marched ahead. Then the Prophet said to me, ‘Come on, let us have a race’. Aisha says that she ran and remained much ahead of him. The Prophet kept quiet for some time. Later on when Aisha grew fat and loose bodied, she forgot the previous incident. Again she accompanied the Prophet on some journey. The Prophet again asked the people to march ahead, and they moved ahead. Then the Prophet again asked her to have a race with him. This time the prophet defeated her and she lagged behind. Now the prophet laughed and said, ‘This is in reply to our previous defeat’ [Ahmad, Safwat al Safwah Vol I p68]
