Question: Please tell us a story about a companion رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ who despised the act of his wife exiting her home.
Answer: Here is a story about a bashful companion رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ. Listen and learn. Sayyidunā Abū Sa’īd Khudrī رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ said: One young companion رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ had recently got married. One day he رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ returned home and saw his bride standing outside their house. He رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ was so furious that when he رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ saw her, he pulled out his spear and rushed towards her. She panicked, moved back, and then cried, ‘My master! Do not hit me, I am innocent, go inside and see for yourself what has brought me out.’
When the companion رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ went inside he saw a dangerous and venomous snake curled up on their bed. He رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ frantically struck the snake with his spear. The snake wriggled with pain and bit him just before it died. The bashful companion رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ tasted the fruit of martyrdom due to the effect of its venom.

May Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ have mercy on him and forgive us without accountability for his sake!
