3249 - وعن جابر قال دخل ابو بكر يستاذن على رسول الله - صلى الله عليه وسلم - فوجد الناس جلوسا ببابه لم يؤذن لاحد منهم، قال: فاذن لابي بكر فدخل، ثم اقبل عمر فاستاذن فاذن له، فوجد النبي - صلى الله عليه وسلم - جالسا حوله نساؤه واجما ساكتا، قال: فقلت: لاقولن شيئا اضحك النبي - صلى الله عليه وسلم - قال: يا رسول الله لو رايت بنت خارجة سالتني النفقة فقمت إليها فوجات عنقها، فضحك رسول الله - صلى الله عليه وسلم - وقال: هن حولي كما ترى يسالنني النفقة فقام ابو بكر عن عائشة يجا عنقها، وقام عمر إلى حفصة يجا عنقها كلاهما يقول تسالين رسول الله - صلى الله عليه وسلم - ما ليس عنده ثم اعتزلهن شهرا او تسعا وعشرين ثم نزلت هذه الآية (ياايها النبي قل لازواجك) حتى بلغ (للمحسنات منكن اجرا عظيما) قال فبدا بعائشة قال: يا عائشة إني اريد ان اعرض امرا احب ان لا تعجلي فيه حتى تستشيري ابويك، قالت: وما هو يا رسول الله؟ فتلا عليها الآية قالت: افيك يا رسول الله استشير ابوي بل اختار الله ورسوله والدار الآخرة  واسالك ان لا تخبر امراة من نسائك بالذي قلت، قال: لا تسالني امراة منهن إلا اخبرتها إن الله لم يبعثني معنتا ولا متعنتا ولكن بعثني معلما ميسرا". رواه مسلم.
Jabir said:Abu Bakr came and asked permission to go in to see the Prophet, but found the people seated at his door, none of them having been given permission. Permission was, however, given to Abu Bakr and he entered. ‘Umar then came forward, and when he had asked and had been granted permission he found the Prophet sitting sad and silent with his wives around him. He told that he decided to say something which would make the Prophet laugh, so he said,“Messenger of God, I wish you had seen the daughter of Kharija when she asked me for extra money and I got up and slapped her on the neck.”God's Messenger laughed and said,“They are around me as you see asking for extra money.”Abu Bakr then got up, went to ‘A’isha and slapped her on the neck, and ‘Umar did the same to Hafsa, both of them saying,“Are you asking God’s Messenger for what he does not possess?”They all replied,“We swear by God that we never ask God’s Messenger for anything he does not possess.”Thereafter he withdrew from them for a month or twenty-nine days. Then this verse came down,“O prophet, say to your wives ... for those who do well among you a great reward”(Al-Qur’an 33:28 f). He then went first to ‘A’isha and said,“I want to propound something to you, ‘A’isha, but wish no hasty reply before you consult your parents.”When she had asked him what it was and he had recited the verse to her she said,“Shall I consult my parents about you, Messenger of God? Nay, I choose God, His Messenger, and the final abode; but I ask you not to tell any of your wives what I have said.”He replied,“Not one of them will ask me without my informing her. God did not send me to be harsh or cause harm, but sent me to teach and make things easy.”Muslim transmitted it.
