أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ ثَوْرٍ عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي ثَوْرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ

«لَمْ أَزَلْ حَرِيصًا أَسْأَلُ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ عَنِ الْمَرْأَتَيْنِ مِنْ أَزْوَاجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ اللَّتَيْنِ» قَالَ اللهُ تَعَالَى {إِنْ تَتُوبَا إِلَى اللهِ فَقَدْ صَغَتْ قُلُوبُكُمَا} [التحريم 4] فَحَجَّ عُمَرُ وَحَجَجْتُ مَعَهُ فَلَمَّا كُنَّا بِبَعْضِ الطَّرِيقِ عَدَلَ عُمَرُ وَعَدَلْتُ مَعَهُ بِالْإِدَاوَةِ فَتَبَرَّزَ ثُمَّ أَتَانِي فَسَكَبْتُ عَلَى يَدَيْهِ فَتَوَضَّأَ فَقُلْتُ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ مَنِ الْمَرْأَتَانِ مِنْ أَزْوَاجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ اللَّتَانِ قَالَ اللهُ لَهُمَا {إِنْ تَتُوبَا إِلَى اللهِ فَقَدْ صَغَتْ قُلُوبُكُمَا} [التحريم 4] قَالَ عُمَرُ وَاعَجَبًا لَكَ يَا ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ عَائِشَةُ وَحَفْصَةُ ثُمَّ أَخَذَ يَسُوقُ الْحَدِيثَ قَالَ «كُنَّا مَعْشَرَ قُرَيْشٍ قَوْمًا نَغْلِبُ النِّسَاءَ فَلَمَّا قَدِمْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ وَجَدْنَا قَوْمًا تَغْلِبُهُمْ نِسَاؤُهُمْ فَطَفِقَ نِسَاؤُنَا يَتَعَلَّمْنَ مِنْ نِسَائِهِمْ» وَكَانَ مَنْزِلِي فِي بَنِي أُمَيَّةَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ بِالْعَوَالِي فَغَضِبْتُ يَوْمًا عَلَى امْرَأَتِي فَإِذَا هِيَ تُرَاجِعُنِي فَأَنْكَرْتُ أَنْ تُرَاجِعَنِي فَقَالَتْ «مَا تُنْكِرُ أَنْ أُرَاجِعَكَ فَوَاللهِ إِنَّ أَزْوَاجَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ لَيُرَاجِعْنَهُ وَتَهْجُرُهُ إِحْدَاهُنَّ الْيَوْمَ إِلَى اللَّيْلِ فَانْطَلَقْتُ فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَى حَفْصَةَ» فَقُلْتُ أَتُرَاجِعِينَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَتْ «نَعَمْ» قُلْتُ وَتَهْجُرُهُ إِحْدَاكُنَّ الْيَوْمَ إِلَى اللَّيْلِ قَالَتْ «نَعَمْ» قُلْتُ لَقَدْ خَابَ مَنْ فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ مِنْكُنَّ وَخَسِرَ أَفَتَأْمَنُ إِحْدَاكُنَّ أَنْ يَغْضَبَ اللهُ عَلَيْهَا لِغَضَبِ رَسُولِهِ ﷺ فَإِذَا هِيَ قَدْ هَلَكَتْ؟ لَا تُرَاجِعِي رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَلَا تَسْأَلِيهِ وَسَلِينِي مَا بَدَا لَكِ [258] وَلَا يَغْرُرْكِ أَنْ كَانَتْ جَارَتُكِ هِيَ أَوْسَمُ وَأَحَبُّ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْكِ يُرِيدُ عَائِشَةَ فَكَانَ لِي جَارٌ مِنِ الْأَنْصَارِ وَكُنَّا نَتَنَاوَبُ النُّزُولَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَنْزِلُ يَوْمًا وَيَنْزِلُ يَوْمًا فَيَأْتِينِي بِخَبَرِ الْوَحْيِ وَغَيْرِهِ وَآتِيهِ بِمِثْلِ ذَلِكَ وَكُنَّا نَتَحَدَّثُ أَنَّ غَسَّانَ تُنْعِلُ الْخَيْلَ لِتَغْزُوَنَا فَنَزَلَ صَاحِبِي يَوْمًا ثُمَّ أَتَانِي عِشَاءً فَضَرَبَ بَابِي ثُمَّ نَادَى فَخَرَجْتُ إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ «حَدَثَ أَمْرٌ» قُلْتُ مَا حَدَثَ؟ جَاءَتْ غَسَّانُ؟ قَالَ «لَا بَلْ هُوَ أَعْظَمُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ طَلَّقَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ نِسَاءَهُ» فَقُلْتُ لَقَدْ خَابَتْ حَفْصَةُ إِذًا وَخَسِرَتْ قَدْ كُنْتُ أَظُنُّ هَذَا كَائِنًا حَتَّى إِذَا صَلَّيْتُ الصُّبْحَ شَدَدْتُ عَلَيَّ ثِيَابِي ثُمَّ نَزَلْتُ فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَى حَفْصَةَ وَهِيَ تَبْكِي فَقُلْتُ ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ كَلِمَةً مَعْنَاهَا أَطَلَّقَكُنَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَتْ «لَا أَدْرِي هَذَا هُوَ مُعْتَزِلٌ فِي هَذِهِ الْمَشْرُبَةِ فَنَادَيْتُ غُلَامًا لَهُ أَسْوَدَ» فَقُلْتُ اسْتَأْذِنْ لِعُمَرَ فَدَخَلَ الْغُلَامُ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ إِلَيَّ فَقَالَ «قَدْ ذَكَرْتُكَ لَهُ فَصَمَتَ فَانْطَلَقْتُ حَتَّى أَتَيْتُ الْمِنْبَرَ فَجَلَسْتُ فَإِذَا عِنْدَهُ رَهْطٌ جُلُوسٌ يَبْكِي بَعْضُهُمْ فَجَلَسْتُ قَلِيلًا فَغَلَبَنِي مَا أَجِدُ فَأَتَيْتُ الْغُلَامَ» فَقُلْتُ اسْتَأْذِنْ لِعُمَرَ فَدَخَلَ الْغُلَامُ ثُمَّ رَجَعَ إِلَيَّ قَالَ قَدْ ذَكَرْتُكَ لَهُ فَصَمَتَ فَجَلَسْتُ إِلَى الْمِنْبَرِ ثُمَّ غَلَبَنِي مَا أَجِدُ فَرَجَعْتُ إِلَى الْغُلَامِ فَقُلْتُ اسْتَأَذِنْ لِعُمَرَ فَدَخَلَ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ إِلَيَّ فَقَالَ قَدَ ذَكَرْتُكَ لَهُ فَصَمَتَ فَوَلَّيْتُ مُدْبِرًا فَإِذَا الْغُلَامُ يَدْعُونِي فَقَالَ ادْخُلْ فَقَدْ أَذِنَ لَكَ فَدَخَلْتُ فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَإِذَا هُوَ مُتَّكِئٌ عَلَى حَصِيرٍ قَدْ أَثَّرَ فِي جَنْبِهِ فَقُلْتُ أَطَلَّقْتَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ نِسَاءَكَ؟ فَرَفَعَ إِلَيَّ رَأْسَهُ قَالَ «لَا» [259] قُلْتُ اللهُ أَكْبَرُ لَوْ رَأَيْتَنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَكُنَّا مَعْشَرَ قُرَيْشٍ قَوْمًا نَغْلِبُ النِّسَاءَ فَلَمَّا قَدِمْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ وَجَدْنَا قَوْمًا تَغْلِبُهُمْ نِسَاؤُهُمْ فَطَفِقَ نِسَاؤُنَا يَتَعَلَّمْنَ مِنْ نِسَائِهِمْ فَغَضِبْتُ يَوْمًا عَلَى امْرَأَتِي فَطَفِقَتْ تُرَاجِعُنِي فَأَنْكَرْتُ أَنْ تُرَاجِعَنِي فَقَالَتْ مَا تُنْكِرُ أَنْ أُرَاجِعَكَ فَوَاللهِ إِنَّ أَزْوَاجَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ لَيُرَاجِعْنَهُ وَتَهْجُرُهُ إِحْدَاهُنَّ يَوْمًا إِلَى اللَّيْلِ فَقُلْتُ لَقَدْ خَابَ مَنْ فَعَلَ ذَلِكِ مِنْهُنَّ وَخَسِرَ أَتَأْمَنُ إِحْدَاهُنَّ أَنْ يَغْضَبَ اللهُ عَلَيْهَا لِغَضَبِ رَسُولِهِ ﷺ؟ فَإِذَا هِيَ قَدْ هَلَكَتْ فَتَبَسَّمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَى حَفْصَةَ فَقُلْتُ لَا يَغْرُرْكِ أَنْ كَانَتْ جَارَتُكِ هِيَ أَوْسَمَ مِنْكِ وَأَحَبَّ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْكِ فَتَبَسَّمَ أُخْرَى فَقُلْتُ أَسْتَأْنِسُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ «نَعَمْ» فَجَلَسْتُ فَرَفَعْتُ رَأْسِي فِي الْبَيْتِ فَوَاللهِ مَا رَأَيْتُ شَيْئًا يَرُدُّ الْبَصَرَ إِلَّا أُهُبًا ثَلَاثَةً فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ادْعُ اللهَ يُوَسِّعْ عَلَى أُمَّتِكَ فَقَدْ وَسَّعَ اللهُ عَلَى فَارِسَ وَالرُّومِ وَهُمْ لَا يَعْبُدُونَ اللهَ فَاسْتَوَى جَالِسًا وَقَالَ «أَوَفِي شَكٍّ أَنْتَ يَا ابْنَ الْخَطَّابِ؟ أُولَئِكَ قَوْمٌ قَدْ عُجِّلَتْ لَهُمْ طَيِّبَاتُهُمْ فِي حَيَاتِهِمُ الدُّنْيَا» فَقُلْتُ اسْتَغْفِرْ لِي يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ وَكَانَ أَقْسَمَ أَلَّا يَدْخُلَ عَلَيْهِنَّ شَهْرًا مِنْ شِدَّةِ مَوْجِدَتِهِ عَلَيْهِنَّ حِينَ عَاتَبَهُ اللهُ

✧ "I had been eager to ask 'Umar b. al-Khattab about the two women among the wives of the Prophet ﷺ about whom Allah Almighty said: {If you two repent to Allah, then your hearts have inclined} [al-Tahrim 4]. 'Umar performed Hajj and I performed Hajj with him. When we were on part of the road, 'Umar turned aside, and I turned aside with him with the water vessel. He relieved himself, then came to me, and I poured water over his hands, and he performed ablution. I said: 'O Commander of the Believers, who are the two women among the wives of the Prophet ﷺ to whom Allah said: {If you two repent to Allah, then your hearts have inclined} [al-Tahrim 4]?' 'Umar said: 'How amazing of you, O Ibn 'Abbas! 'A'ishah and Hafsah.' Then he began to narrate the hadith. He said: 'We, the people of Quraysh, were a people who dominated women, but when we came to Madinah, we found a people whose women dominated them, so our women began to learn from their women.' My dwelling was among Banu Umayyah b. Zayd in al-'Awali. One day I became angry with my wife, and she answered me back. I disapproved of her answering me back, and she said: 'What do you disapprove of in my answering you back? By Allah, the wives of the Prophet ﷺ answer him back, and one of them forsakes him from day until night.' So I set out and entered upon Hafsah. I said: 'Do you answer back the Messenger of Allah ﷺ?' She said: 'Yes.' I said: 'And does one of you forsake him from day until night?' She said: 'Yes.' I said: 'Whoever among you does that has failed and lost. Does one of you feel secure that Allah will be angry with her due to the anger of His Messenger ﷺ, and then she will have perished? Do not answer back the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and do not ask him, but ask me whatever you need. And do not let it deceive you that your neighbor is more beautiful and more beloved to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ than you'—meaning 'A'ishah. I had a neighbor from the Ansar, and we used to take turns going down to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. I would go down one day, and he would go down one day, and he would bring me news of the revelation and other matters, and I would bring him the like of that. We used to speak about Ghassan shoeing their horses to raid us. My companion went down one day, then came to me in the evening, knocked on my door, and called out. I went out to him, and he said: 'A great event has occurred.' I said: 'What happened? Has Ghassan come?' He said: 'No, it is greater than that: the Prophet ﷺ has divorced his wives.' I said: 'Then Hafsah has failed and lost. I used to think this would happen.' When I had prayed the dawn prayer, I tightened my clothes, then went down and entered upon Hafsah while she was weeping. I said: 'Then he mentioned a word whose meaning is: has the Messenger of Allah ﷺ divorced you?' She said: 'I do not know. He is secluded in this upper room.' So I called a black slave of his and said: 'Ask permission for 'Umar.' The slave entered, then came out to me and said: 'I mentioned you to him, but he remained silent.' So I went until I came to the pulpit and sat down. There was a group sitting with him, some of them weeping. I sat for a little while, then what I felt overwhelmed me, so I went to the slave and said: 'Ask permission for 'Umar.' The slave entered, then returned to me and said: 'I mentioned you to him, but he remained silent.' I sat by the pulpit, then what I felt overwhelmed me, so I went back to the slave and said: 'Ask permission for 'Umar.' He entered, then came out to me and said: 'I mentioned you to him, but he remained silent.' So I turned away, departing, and then the slave called me and said: 'Enter, for he has given you permission.' I entered and greeted the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and there he was reclining on a mat that had left marks on his side. I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, have you divorced your wives?' He raised his head to me and said: 'No.' I said: 'Allah is Greatest! If you had seen us, O Messenger of Allah—we, the people of Quraysh, were a people who dominated women, but when we came to Madinah, we found a people whose women dominated them, so our women began to learn from their women. One day I became angry with my wife, and she answered me back. I disapproved of her answering me back, and she said: "What do you disapprove of in my answering you back? By Allah, the wives of the Prophet ﷺ answer him back, and one of them forsakes him from day until night." I said: "Whoever among them does that has failed and lost. Does one of them feel secure that Allah will be angry with her due to the anger of His Messenger ﷺ? Then she will have perished."' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ smiled. I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, I entered upon Hafsah and said: "Do not let it deceive you that your neighbor is more beautiful than you and more beloved to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ than you."' He smiled again. I said: 'May I be at ease, O Messenger of Allah?' He said: 'Yes.' So I sat down, and I raised my head in the house. By Allah, I saw nothing that would catch the eye except three hides. I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, supplicate Allah to expand provision for your ummah, for Allah has expanded provision for Persia and Rome, while they do not worship Allah.' He sat up straight and said: 'Are you in doubt, O Ibn al-Khattab? Those are a people whose good things have been hastened for them in the life of this world.' I said: 'Ask forgiveness for me, O Messenger of Allah.' He had sworn not to enter upon them for a month because of the intensity of his anger toward them when Allah reproached him."
