When I first read this sahih hadith, I was perplexed under what type of condition the prophet died:
> [Bukhari Volume 7, Book 62, Number 144](http://www.sunnah.com/bukhari/67#150) :
> Narrated by 'Aisha
>
> That during his fatal ailment, Allah's Apostle, used to ask his wives,
> "Where shall I stay tomorrow? Where shall I stay tomorrow?" He was
> looking forward to Aisha's turn. So all his wives allowed him to stay
> where he wished, and he stayed at 'Aisha's house till he died there.
> 'Aisha added: He died on the day of my usual turn at my house. Allah
> took him unto Him while **his head was between my chest and my neck and
> his saliva was mixed with my saliva**.
* Some people interpret the above hadith as the prophet peace be upon him was making love to Aisha (RA) at the time of his death. Is that the correct interpretation of the hadith?
* Was he alone at the time of his death?
