حَدَّثَنَا كَثِيرُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ بُرْقَانَ، قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ الزُّهْرِيَّ، عَنِ الرَّجُلِ يُخَيِّرُ امْرَأَتَهُ فَتَخْتَارُهُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي عُرْوَةُ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ: أَتَانِي رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: " إِنِّي سَأَعْرِضُ عَلَيْكِ أَمْرًا، فَلَا عَلَيْكِ أَنْ تَعْجَلِي فِيهِ حَتَّى تُشَاوِرِي أَبَوَيْكِ " فَقُلْتُ: وَمَا هَذَا الْأَمْرُ؟ قَالَتْ: فَتَلَا عَلَيَّ: {يَا أَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ قُلْ لِأَزْوَاجِكَ إِنْ كُنْتُنَّ تُرِدْنَ الْحَيَاةَ الدُّنْيَا وَزِينَتَهَا فَتَعَالَيْنَ أُمَتِّعْكُنَّ وَأُسَرِّحْكُنَّ سَرَاحًا جَمِيلًا وَإِنْ كُنْتُنَّ تُرِدْنَ اللهَ وَرَسُولَهُ، ، وَالدَّارَ الْآخِرَةَ فَإِنَّ اللهَ أَعَدَّ لِلْمُحْسِنَاتِ مِنْكُنَّ أَجْرًا عَظِيمًا} [الأحزاب: ٢٩] قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ: فَقُلْتُ: وَفِي ذَلِكَ (١) تَأْمُرُنِي أَنْ (٢) أُشَاوِرَ أَبَوَيَّ؟ بَلْ أُرِيدُ اللهَ وَرَسُولَهُ وَالدَّارَ الْآخِرَةَ. قَالَتْ: فَسُرَّ بِذَلِكَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَعْجَبَهُ، وَقَالَ: " سَأَعْرِضُ عَلَى صَوَاحِبِكِ مَا عَرَضْتُ عَلَيْكِ " قَالَتْ: فَقُلْتُ لَهُ: فَلَا تُخْبِرْهُنَّ بِالَّذِي اخْتَرْتُ، فَلَمْ يَفْعَلْ، وَكَانَ يَقُولُ لَهُنَّ كَمَا قَالَ لِعَائِشَةَ، ثُمَّ يَقُولُ: قَدْ اخْتَارَتْ عَائِشَةُ اللهَ وَرَسُولَهُ وَالدَّارَ الْآخِرَةَ. قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ: قَدْ خَيَّرَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَلَمْ نَرَ ذَلِكَ طَلَاقًا (٣)، ،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that when the verse of choice (Ayat Takhyir) was revealed, the Prophet (ﷺ) first called me and said, "O Aisha! I want to mention something before you; do not make any decision in this matter without consulting your parents." I asked, "What is it?" The Prophet (ﷺ) called me and recited this verse: "O Prophet (ﷺ)! Say to your wives: If you desire Allah and His Messenger and the home of the Hereafter..." I said, "Will I consult my parents in this matter? I choose Allah and His Messenger." Upon this, the Prophet (ﷺ) became very happy and said, "I will say the same thing before your other companions (wives)." I said, "Do not tell them what I have chosen." But the Prophet (ﷺ) did not do so, and he would tell them Aisha's (may Allah be pleased with her) answer, saying that Aisha has chosen Allah, His Messenger, and the home of the Hereafter. She says that the Prophet (ﷺ) gave us the choice, but we did not consider it as a divorce.
