to the lecturer of
Madinah Hadhrat Ibn Abi Saa'ib, ''You must obey me in three factors, otherwise I
shall oppose you most vehemently." Hadhrat Ibn Abi Saa'ib said, "I shall most
definitely obey you, 0 ummul Mu'mineen! What are they?" Hadhrat Aa'isha
said, "(Firstly) Refrain from going out of your way to rhyme your du'aas
because Rasulullaah and the Sahabah never did this. (Secondly)
You should deliver a lecture once every week. If you do not want to do so only
once, you may do so twice or otherwise thrice at the most because you should
never allow people to become tired of the Qur'aan. (Thirdly) I never want to
find you going to people who are engaged in some discussion and then you
cut short their talk (by starting your lecture). Rather leave them to talk and
you start your lecture only when they approach you and ask you to talk." (
