أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَعْمَرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ قَالَ زَعَمَ عَطَاءٌ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عُبَيْدَ بْنَ عُمَيْرٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَائِشَةَ تَزْعُمُ
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يَمْكُثُ عِنْدَ زَيْنَبَ بِنْتِ جَحْشٍ وَيَشْرَبُ عِنْدَهَا عَسَلًا قَالَتْ فَتَوَاصَيْتُ أَنَا وَحَفْصَةُ إِنْ دَخَلَ عَلَيْنَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَلْتَقُلْ إِنِّي أَجِدُ مِنْكَ رِيحَ الْمَغَافِرِ فَدَخَلَ عَلَى إِحْدَاهُمَا فَقَالَتْ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَقَالَ «بَلْ شَرِبْتُ عِنْدَ زَيْنَبَ بِنْتِ جَحْشٍ عَسَلًا وَلَنْ أَعُودَ لَهُ فَنَزَلَتْ {يَا أَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ لِمَ تُحَرِّمُ} الْآيَةَ»

✧ The Prophet ﷺ used to stay with Zaynab bt. Jahsh and drink honey at her place. She said: Hafsah and I agreed that if the Prophet ﷺ entered upon either of us, she should say, 'I detect on you the smell of maghafir.' So he entered upon one of them and she said that to him. He said, 'Rather, I drank honey at Zaynab bt. Jahsh's place, and I will never do so again.' Then the verse was revealed: {O Prophet, why do you prohibit...}.
