It is narrated from Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to stay with Sayyida Zainab bint Jahsh (may Allah be pleased with her), and he would drink honey at her place. I (Aisha) and Hafsa both devised a scheme that whichever of us the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) visited, she should say: "I find the smell of maghafir from you; have you eaten maghafir?" So when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) entered upon one of us, she said the same thing. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: "I drank honey at Zainab's place; I will never drink it again." Then these verses were revealed: {لِمَ تُحَرِّمُ مَا أَ حَلَّ اللّٰہُ لَکَ} … O Prophet, why do you forbid what Allah has made lawful for you? {إِنْ تَتُوبَا} … If you two turn in repentance to Allah. This refers to Sayyida Aisha and Sayyida Hafsa (may Allah be pleased with them). And {وَإِذْ أَسَرَّ النَّبِیُّ إِلٰی بَعْضِ أَ زْوَاجِہِ} … And when the Prophet confided a matter to one of his wives. This refers to the Prophet's (peace and blessings be upon him) statement: "Rather, I drank honey."
