حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو أَبُو عَامِرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا زَكَرِيَّا يَعْنِي ابْنَ إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ
أَقْبَلَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ يَسْتَأْذِنُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَالنَّاسُ بِبَابِهِ جُلُوسٌ، فَلَمْ يُؤْذَنْ لَهُ، ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عُمَرُ فَاسْتَأْذَنَ فَلَمْ يُؤْذَنْ لَهُ، ثُمَّ أُذِنَ لِأَبِي بَكْرٍ، وَعُمَرَ فَدَخَلَا، وَالنَّبِيُّ جَالِسٌ، وَحَوْلَهُ نِسَاؤُهُ، وَهُوَ سَاكِتٌ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ: لَأُكَلِّمَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ لَعَلَّهُ يَضْحَكُ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، لَوْ رَأَيْتَ بِنْتَ زَيْدٍ امْرَأَةَ عُمَرَ، سَأَلَتْنِي النَّفَقَةَ آنِفًا، فَوَجَأْتُ عُنُقَهَا، فَضَحِكَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ حَتَّى بَدَا نَاجِذُهُ، قَالَ: هُنَّ حَوْلِي كَمَا تَرَى يَسْأَلْنَنِي النَّفَقَةَ. فَقَامَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ إِلَى عَائِشَةَ لِيَضْرِبَهَا، وَقَامَ عُمَرُ إِلَى حَفْصَةَ كِلَاهُمَا يَقُولَانِ: تَسْأَلَانِ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ مَا لَيْسَ عِنْدَهُ، فَنَهَاهُمَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ، فَقُلْنَ نِسَاؤُهُ: وَاللهِ لَا نَسْأَلُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ بَعْدَ هَذَا الْمَجْلِسِ مَا لَيْسَ عِنْدَهُ، قَالَ: وَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ الْخِيَارَ، فَبَدَأَ بِعَائِشَةَ فَقَالَ: إِنِّي ذَاكِرٌ لَكِ أَمْرًا مَا أُحِبُّ أَنْ تَعْجَلِي فِيهِ حَتَّى تَسْتَأْمِرِي أَبَوَيْكِ. قَالَتْ: مَا هُوَ ؟ قَالَ: فَتَلَا عَلَيْهَا: يَا أَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ قُلْ لأَزْوَاجِكَ الْآيَةَ. قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ: أَفِيكَ أَسْتَأْمِرُ أَبَوَيَّ ؟! بَلْ أَخْتَارُ اللهَ وَرَسُولَهُ، وَأَسْأَلُكَ أَنْ لَا تَذْكُرَ لِامْرَأَةٍ مِنْ نِسَائِكَ مَا اخْتَرْتُ. فَقَالَ: إِنَّ اللهَ [عَزَّ وَجَلَّ] لَمْ يَبْعَثْنِي مُعَنِّفًا، وَلَكِنْ بَعَثَنِي مُعَلِّمًا مُيَسِّرًا، لَا تَسْأَلُنِي امْرَأَةٌ مِنْهُنَّ عَمَّا اخْتَرْتِ إِلَّا أَخْبَرْتُهَا

✧ Abu Bakr came asking permission to see the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while people were sitting at his door, and he was not granted permission. Then Umar came and asked permission and was not granted permission. Then permission was granted to Abu Bakr and Umar, and they entered while the Prophet was sitting, with his wives around him, and he was silent. Umar said, 'I will surely speak to the Prophet ﷺ so that he may laugh.' Umar said, 'O Messenger of Allah, if only you had seen the daughter of Zayd, Umar's wife: she asked me for maintenance just now, and I struck her neck.' The Prophet ﷺ laughed until his molars showed. He said, 'They are around me as you see, asking me for maintenance.' Abu Bakr stood up to Aisha to strike her, and Umar stood up to Hafsa, both of them saying, 'Do you ask the Messenger of Allah ﷺ for what he does not have?' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade them. His wives said, 'By Allah, we will never ask the Messenger of Allah ﷺ after this gathering for what he does not have.' He said, 'And Allah, Mighty and Majestic, revealed the choice, and he began with Aisha, saying, "I am going to mention to you a matter, and I would not like you to hasten in it until you consult your parents." She said, "What is it?" He recited to her: "O Prophet, say to your wives..." the verse. Aisha said, "Concerning you I should consult my parents?! Rather, I choose Allah and His Messenger, and I ask you not to mention to any of your wives what I have chosen." He said, "Allah, Mighty and Majestic, did not send me as a rebuker, but sent me as a teacher, making things easy. No wife among them will ask me about what you chose except that I will inform her."
