حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَخِي عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ؓ
أَنَّ نِسَاءَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ كُنَّ حِزْبَيْنِ فَحِزْبٌ فِيهِ عَائِشَةُ وَحَفْصَةُ وَصَفِيَّةُ وَسَوْدَةُ وَالْحِزْبُ الآخَرُ أُمُّ سَلَمَةَ وَسَائِرُ نِسَاءِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَكَانَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ قَدْ عَلِمُوا حُبَّ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَائِشَةَ فَإِذَا كَانَتْ عِنْدَ أَحَدِهِمْ هَدِيَّةٌ يُرِيدُ أَنْ يُهْدِيَهَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَخَّرَهَا حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي بَيْتِ عَائِشَةَ بَعَثَ صَاحِبُ الْهَدِيَّةِ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي بَيْتِ عَائِشَةَ فَكَلَّمَ حِزْبُ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ فَقُلْنَ لَهَا كَلِّمِي رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُكَلِّمُ النَّاسَ فَيَقُولُ مَنْ أَرَادَ أَنْ يُهْدِيَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ هَدِيَّةً فَلْيُهْدِهِ إِلَيْهِ حَيْثُ كَانَ مِنْ بُيُوتِ نِسَائِهِ فَكَلَّمَتْهُ أُمُّ سَلَمَةَ بِمَا قُلْنَ فَلَمْ يَقُلْ لَهَا شَيْئًا فَسَأَلْنَهَا فَقَالَتْ مَا قَالَ لِي شَيْئًا فَقُلْنَ لَهَا فَكَلِّمِيهِ قَالَتْ فَكَلَّمَتْهُ حِينَ دَارَ إِلَيْهَا أَيْضًا فَلَمْ يَقُلْ لَهَا شَيْئًا فَسَأَلْنَهَا فَقَالَتْ مَا قَالَ لِي شَيْئًا فَقُلْنَ لَهَا كَلِّمِيهِ حَتَّى يُكَلِّمَكِ فَدَارَ إِلَيْهَا فَكَلَّمَتْهُ فَقَالَ لَهَا لاَ تُؤْذِينِي فِي عَائِشَةَ فَإِنَّ الْوَحْىَ لَمْ يَأْتِنِي وَأَنَا فِي ثَوْبِ امْرَأَةٍ إِلاَّ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ فَقَالَتْ أَتُوبُ إِلَى اللَّهِ مِنْ أَذَاكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ثُمَّ إِنَّهُنَّ دَعَوْنَ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَأَرْسَلْنَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ تَقُولُ إِنَّ نِسَاءَكَ يَنْشُدْنَكَ اللَّهَ الْعَدْلَ فِي بِنْتِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ فَكَلَّمَتْهُ فَقَالَ يَا بُنَيَّةُ أَلاَ تُحِبِّينَ مَا أُحِبُّ قَالَتْ بَلَى فَرَجَعَتْ إِلَيْهِنَّ فَأَخْبَرَتْهُنَّ فَقُلْنَ ارْجِعِي إِلَيْهِ فَأَبَتْ أَنْ تَرْجِعَ فَأَرْسَلْنَ زَيْنَبَ بِنْتَ جَحْشٍ فَأَتَتْهُ فَأَغْلَظَتْ وَقَالَتْ إِنَّ نِسَاءَكَ يَنْشُدْنَكَ اللَّهَ الْعَدْلَ فِي بِنْتِ ابْنِ أَبِي قُحَافَةَ فَرَفَعَتْ صَوْتَهَا حَتَّى تَنَاوَلَتْ عَائِشَةَ وَهْىَ قَاعِدَةٌ فَسَبَّتْهَا حَتَّى إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَيَنْظُرُ إِلَى عَائِشَةَ هَلْ تَكَلَّمُ قَالَ فَتَكَلَّمَتْ عَائِشَةُ تَرُدُّ عَلَى زَيْنَبَ حَتَّى أَسْكَتَتْهَا قَالَتْ فَنَظَرَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِلَى عَائِشَةَ وَقَالَ إِنَّهَا بِنْتُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ

The wives of Messenger of Allah ﷺ were in two groups. One group consisted of ʿAisha, Hafsa, Safiyya and Sauda; and the other group consisted of Um Salama and the other wives of Messenger of Allah ﷺ. The Muslims knew that Messenger of Allah ﷺ loved ʿAisha, so if any of them had a gift and wished to give to Messenger of Allah ﷺ, he would delay it, till Messenger of Allah ﷺ had come to ʿAisha's home and then he would send his gift to Messenger of Allah ﷺ in her home. The group of Um Salama discussed the matter together and decided that Um Salama should request Messenger of Allah ﷺ to tell the people to send their gifts to him in whatever wife's house he was. Um Salama told Messenger of Allah ﷺ of what they had said, but he did not reply. Then they (those wives) asked Um Salama about it. She said, "He did not say anything to me." They asked her to talk to him again. She talked to him again when she met him on her day, but he gave no reply. When they asked her, she replied that he had given no reply. They said to her, "Talk to him till he gives you a reply." When it was her turn, she talked to him again. He then said to her, "Do not hurt me regarding Aisha, as the Divine Inspirations do not come to me on any of the beds except that of Aisha." On that Um Salama said, "I repent to Allah for hurting you." Then the group of Um Salama called Fatima, the daughter of Messenger of Allah ﷺ and sent her to Messenger of Allah ﷺ to say to him, "Your wives request to treat them and the daughter of Abu Bakr on equal terms." Then Fatima conveyed the message to him. The Prophet ﷺ said, "O my daughter! Don't you love whom I love?" She replied in the affirmative and returned and told them of the situation. They requested her to go to him again but she refused. They then sent Zainab bint Jahsh who went to him and used harsh words saying, "Your wives request you to treat them and the daughter of Ibn Abu Quhafa on equal terms." On that she raised her voice and abused ʿAisha to her face so much so that Messenger of Allah ﷺ looked at ʿAisha to see whether she would retort. ʿAisha started replying to Zainab till she silenced her. The Prophet ﷺ then looked at ʿAisha and said, "She is really the daughter of Abu Bakr."
