Hadith 3253
أَخْبَرَنَا
سُوَيْدُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ ، قَالَ : أَنْبَأَنَا
عَبْدُ اللَّهِ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا
سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ الْمُغِيرَةِ ، عَنْ
ثَابِتٍ ، عَنْ
أَنَسٍ ، قَالَ : لَمَّا انْقَضَتْ عِدَّةُ زَيْنَبَ ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِزَيْدٍ : " اذْكُرْهَا عَلَيَّ " , قَالَ زَيْدٌ : فَانْطَلَقْتُ ، فَقُلْتُ : يَا زَيْنَبُ أَبْشِرِي أَرْسَلَنِي إِلَيْكِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَذْكُرُكِ ، فَقَالَتْ : مَا أَنَا بِصَانِعَةٍ شَيْئًا حَتَّى أَسْتَأْمِرَ رَبِّي ، فَقَامَتْ إِلَى مَسْجِدِهَا ، وَنَزَلَ الْقُرْآنُ وَجَاءَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَدَخَلَ بِغَيْرِ أَمْرٍ " .
´It was narrated that Anas said:` "When the 'Iddah of Zainab was over, the Messenger of Allah said to Zaid: 'Propose marriage to her on my behalf.' Zaid went and said: 'O Zainab, rejoice, for the Messenger of Allah has sent me to you to propose marriage on his behalf.' She said: 'I will not do anything until I consult my Lord.' She went to her prayer place and Qur'an was revealed, then the Messenger of Allah came and entered upon her without any formalities."
