Anas ibn Maalik narrated:

‘My mother, Umm Sulaym, invited the Messenger of Allah, sallallaahu ‘alay- hi wa sallam, to a dinner which she had prepared. He (the Messenger of Allah, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) ate out of that and then said: “Stand up so that I may pray.” ‘I picked up a mat (belonging to us) which had turned dark on account of its long use (or the lack of usage). I sprinkled water over it (in order to soften it and cleaned it from the dust that had accumulated on it). Then the Messenger of Al- lah, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, stood upon it, and I and an orphan formed a row behind him, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, and the old woman (i.e. his moth- er) was behind us, and the Messenger of Allah, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, led us in two Rak’ahs (units) of prayer and then went back.’1

Ibn Hajar (a scholar) said: “The Messenger of Allah, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, wanted to teach them (including the woman Companion) how to pray by watching him pray because she may be unaware of some of the actions or move- ments of prayer.”
