It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that on the day of the Battle of Khaybar, I was riding behind Hazrat Abu Talha (may Allah be pleased with him) and my feet were touching the feet of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). When we reached there, the sun had already risen and the people of Khaybar had taken out their cattle and had come out with their axes and mattocks. When they saw us, they said, "Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) and his army have come." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said "Allahu Akbar" and declared, "Khaybar is destroyed, destroyed. When we descend into the courtyard of a people, the morning of those who have been warned is the worst." Allah Almighty inflicted defeat upon them.

He further says that Hazrat Safiyyah (may Allah be pleased with her), who was very beautiful, came into the share of Hazrat Dihyah Kalbi (may Allah be pleased with him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) bought her in exchange for seven persons and, after purchasing her, sent her to Hazrat Umm Sulaim (may Allah be pleased with her) so that she could adorn and prepare her as a bride. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gathered dates, cheese, and ghee for her wedding feast. Halwa was prepared from it and, after spreading a dining cloth, it was placed on it. People ate from it to their fill.

During this, people began to wonder whether the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would marry her or keep her as a slave. But when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) made her ride on a mount, arranged a curtain, and seated her behind him, people understood that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had married her.

When they neared Madinah Munawwarah, people, according to their custom, began to dismount by jumping off their mounts. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) also began to dismount in the same way, but the she-camel slipped and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) fell to the ground, and Hazrat Safiyyah (may Allah be pleased with her) also fell. The other noble wives were watching and said, "May Allah double this Jewess and do such and such to her." Meanwhile, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) stood up and arranged a curtain for her, then seated her behind him. I asked, "O Abu Hamzah! Did the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) really fall?" He replied, "Yes! By Allah, he fell."

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that I was also present at the wedding feast of Hazrat Zainab (may Allah be pleased with her), and at this wedding feast, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) fed the people plenty of bread and meat. All the others ate and left, but two men, after eating, sat there and began to talk. Seeing this, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) himself went out of the house. I also came out behind the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), to pass the time, went to the chambers of his noble wives one by one and greeted them. They would ask, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! How did you find your wife?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would reply, "Very good." Then, when he reached the door of his house, those two were still sitting and talking. When they saw the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) returning, they stood up and left. Now I do not remember whether I informed the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) of their departure or someone else did. In any case, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) entered his house from there. I also wanted to enter, but the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) hung a curtain and the verse of hijab was revealed.
