Is it true that the Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, used to take his wife with him to banquets, and that he would not go if she was not also invited?
The in Muslim from Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) confirms that the Prophet (peace be upon him) did not accept the invitation of his Persian neighbor until the latter agreed to invite Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) along with him. Some scholars have interpreted this as a special excuse. Imam An-Nawawi, for instance, held that the Prophet (peace be upon him) had the choice to accept or decline, and that he disliked being singled out for the food without Aisha. This demonstrates the beauty of companionship and the rights of marital association. It should be noted that this action was not the Prophet's usual custom (peace be upon him); rather, it was generally his habit to accept invitations without imposing conditions.
