In the Pre-lslamic Period when the people assumed Ihram, they would enter their houses from the back.

So enter houses through their doors." (2.189)

Amr said: Ibn Safwan told me all this on the authority of Kaladah ibn Hanbal, and he did not say: I heard it from him.

Allah's Apostle (p.b.u.h) fell down from a horse and his right side was either injured or scratched, so we went to inquire about his health.

All the praises are for You.") (See Hadith No. 656 Vol. 1).

Once Allah's Apostle led us in prayer, and after finishing the first two rak`at, got up (instead of sitting for at-Tahiyyat) and then carried on with the prayer.
