حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ: خَرَجَتْ سَوْدَةُ لِحَاجَتِهَا لَيْلًا بَعْدَ مَا ضُرِبَ عَلَيْهِنَّ الْحِجَابُ، قَالَتْ: وَكَانَتْ امْرَأَةً تَفْرَعُ النِّسَاءَ جَسِيمَةً، فَوَافَقَهَا عُمَرُ، فَأَبْصَرَهَا فَنَادَاهَا: يَا سَوْدَةُ، إِنَّكِ وَاللهِ مَا تَخْفَيْنَ عَلَيْنَا إِذَا خَرَجْتِ، فَانْظُرِي كَيْفَ تَخْرُجِينَ، أَوْ كَيْفَ تَصْنَعِينَ؟ فَانْكَفَتْ، (٢) فَرَجَعَتْ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَإِنَّهُ لَيَتَعَشَّى، فَأَخْبَرَتْهُ بِمَا قَالَ لَهَا عُمَرُ، وَإِنَّ فِي يَدِهِ لَعَرْقًا، فَأُوحِيَ إِلَيْهِ، ثُمَّ رُفِعَ عَنْهُ، وَإِنَّ الْعَرْقَ لَفِي يَدِهِ، فَقَالَ: " لَقَدْ أُذِنَ، لَكُنَّ أَنْ تَخْرُجْنَ لِحَاجَتِكُنَّ " (٣)، ،

English translation
It is narrated from Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that after the command of hijab was revealed, once Sawda (may Allah be pleased with her) went out to relieve herself. Since she was tall and had a heavy build (people would recognize her), on the way she met Umar (may Allah be pleased with him). He saw Sawda (may Allah be pleased with her) and called out to her from a distance, "Sawda! By Allah, when you go out, you are not hidden from us, so see in what condition you are going out." Sawda (may Allah be pleased with her) turned back and returned to the Prophet (ﷺ). At that time, the Prophet (ﷺ) was having his dinner. She mentioned to the Prophet (ﷺ) what Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) had said. At that moment, there was a bone in the hand of the Prophet (ﷺ), and at that very moment, revelation began to descend upon the Prophet (ﷺ). When that state passed, the bone was still in the blessed hand of the Prophet (ﷺ) in the same way, and the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "You have been permitted to go out for your needs."
