Muhammad ibn Hilal saw the chambers of the Prophet’s wives, may Allah bless him and grant him peace. They were made of palm ribs and covered with hair-cloth. I asked him about ‘A’isha’s house, and he said: “Its door faced toward Syria.” I asked: “Did it have one door leaf or two?” He said: “It had one door.” I asked: “What was it made of?” He replied: “Juniper or teak.”
