Hadith 1761
Umm al-Mu'mineen Aisha Siddiqa (may Allah be pleased with her) says: I used to feel jealous of those women who would offer themselves to the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him), and I would say, "What is this matter that a woman offers herself?" Then when Allah the Exalted revealed this verse: "You may defer (the turn of) any of them (your wives) that you please, and you may take to yourself any that you please; and if you desire any of those whom you have set aside, there is no blame on you," I said to the Prophet (peace be upon him), "I see that your Lord hastens to fulfill your wishes."

Hadith 1762
Umm al-Mu'mineen Aisha Siddiqa (may Allah be pleased with her) says: Regarding this verse, "You have the option to keep away from whom you will of them (your wives), and you may take to yourself whom you will, and if you desire any whom you have set aside, there is no blame on you" (Al-Ahzab: 51), after its revelation, whenever the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) wished to go to another wife on the turn of one, he would seek permission from the one whose turn it was. So I used to say, "O Messenger of Allah, if you ask me, then because of my love for you, I do not like you to go to anyone else."
