Once I saw Messenger of Allah ﷺ at the door of my house while some Ethiopians were playing in the mosque (displaying their skill with spears). Messenger of Allah ﷺ was screening me with his Rida' so as to enable me to see their display. (ʿUrwa said that ʿAisha said, "I saw the Prophet ﷺ and the Ethiopians were playing with their spears.")
