It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that he said: "For about a year I kept intending to ask Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) about the two women who supported each other against the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), but because of his awe and majesty I did not have the courage to ask. Then, when we were at Marr al-Zahran, he went to perform ablution and said: 'Bring me a vessel of water.' I came to him with the water and said: O Commander of the Believers! Who were the two women? I had not yet finished what I was saying when he immediately answered: 'They were Sayyidah Aishah and Sayyidah Hafsah (may Allah be pleased with them both).'"
