- (إنّي ذاكرٌ لك أمراً، فلا عليك أن تستعجلِي؛ حتى تستأمِري أبويك، ثم قال: إن الله قال: (يا أيها النَّبيُّ قل لأزواجك ... ) إلى تمام الآيتين) .
The wife of the Messenger, Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), says that when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was commanded to give his wives the choice, he (peace be upon him) started with me and said: "I am going to present a matter before you; do not be hasty, rather consult your parents." (In reality) the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) knew that my parents would not command me to separate from him. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) recited these two verses: «يٰٓاَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ قُلْ لِّاَزْوَاجِكَ اِنْ كُنْتُنَّ تُرِدْنَ۔۔۔۔۔۔» (Surah « » Al-Ahzab: 28-29). I said: In what matter should I consult my parents? I desire Allah, His Messenger, and the Home of the Hereafter.
