Abu Al-Faraj relates in Al-aghani from Al-Mada’ini who relates that a certain woman said: I was at the house of ‘Aishah bint Talha when someone said ‘Umar ibn ‘Ubaid Allah had arrived, in other words her husband. She said: So I stepped away, and he came in, and I heard them both talking. And he played with her for a while and then had sex with her; and she snorted and grunted with all kinds of amazing movements and sounds, and I could hear it. And when he left, I said to her: You – considering yourself and your dignity and your sense of honour and your standing – do this? She said: Truly we give everything to these stallions with all we can and with all that arouses them, so what is it that you are criticizing about that? I said: I prefer it to be done at night. She said: Certainly this happens at night and much more, but when he sees me his craving is aroused and he becomes agitated, and he extends his hand to me and I comply with him, and what you see happens. And I said: Oh ‘Aishah, ‘Umar has been given of you what has not been given to any of your husbands.
