أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ عَنْ عَطَاءٍ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عُبَيْدًا يَعْنِي ابْنَ عُمَيْرٍ اللَّيْثِيَّ قَالَ
سَمِعْتُ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يَمْكُثُ عِنْدَ زَيْنَبَ وَيَشْرَبُ عِنْدَهَا عَسَلًا فَتَوَاصَيْتُ وَحَفْصَةُ أَيَّتُنَا مَا دَخَلَ عَلَيْهَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَلْتَقُلْ إِنِّي أَجِدُ مِنْكَ رِيحَ مَغَافِيرَ فَدَخَلَ عَلَى إِحْدَاهُمَا فَقَالَتْ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَقَالَ «بَلْ شَرِبْتُ عَسَلًا عِنْدَ زَيْنَبَ» وَقَالَ لَنْ أَعُودَ لَهُ فَنَزَلَ {لِمَ تُحَرِّمُ مَا أَحَلَّ اللهُ لَكَ} [التحريم 1] {إِنْ تَتُوبَا إِلَى اللهِ} [التحريم 4] لِعَائِشَةَ وَحَفْصَةَ لَمْ أَفْهَمْ حَفْصَةَ كَمَا أَرَدْتُ { وَإِذْ أَسَرَّ النَّبِيُّ إِلَى بَعْضِ أَزْوَاجِهِ } [التحريم 3] لِقَوْلِهِ «بَلْ شَرِبْتُ عَسَلًا» هَذَا الْكَلَامُ كُلُّهُ فِي حَدِيثِ عَطَاءٍ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ إِسْنَادُهُ جَيِّدٌ غَايَةَ صَحِيحِ حَدِيثِ عَائِشَةَ هَذَا فِي الْعَسَلِ

✧ I heard A'ishah, the wife of the Prophet ﷺ, say that the Prophet ﷺ used to stay with Zaynab and drink honey at her place. She and Hafsah agreed that whichever of them the Prophet ﷺ entered upon should say, "I find from you the smell of maghafir." He entered upon one of them and she said that to him. He said, "Rather, I drank honey at Zaynab's." And he said, "I will never do it again." Then was revealed: {Why do you forbid what Allah has made lawful for you} [al-Tahrim 1], {If you two repent to Allah} [al-Tahrim 4] to A'ishah and Hafsah. I did not understand Hafsah as I intended. {And when the Prophet confided to one of his wives} [al-Tahrim 3] for his saying, "Rather, I drank honey." All of this speech is in the hadith of Ata'. Abu Abd al-Rahman said: This hadith has an excellent chain, extremely authentic hadith of A'ishah regarding the honey.
