Narrated `Aisha: (the wife of the Prophet) when Allah's Messenger was ordered to give option to his wives, he started with me, saying, I am going to mention to you something, but you shall not hasten (to give your reply) unless you consult your parents. The Prophet knew that my parents would not order me to leave him. Then he said, Allah says: 'O Prophet (Muhammad)! Say to your wives: If you desire the life of this world and its glitter........a great reward. (33.28-29) I said, Then why I consult my parents? Verily, I seek Allah, His Apostle and the Home of the Hereafter. Then all the other wives of the Prophet did the same as I did.
