Narrated Masruq: I asked `Aisha about the option: She said, The Prophet gave us the option. Do you think that option was considered as a divorce? I said, It matters little to me if I give my wife the option once or a hundred times after she has chosen me.

If you give three divorces then she cannot be lawful for you until she has married another husband (and is divorced by him).

She could not get her satisfaction from him, and after a while he divorced her. Then she came to the Prophet and said, O Allah's Apostle! My first husband divorced me and then I married another man who entered upon me to consummate his marriage but he proved to be impotent and did not approach me except once during which he benefited nothing from me. Can I remarry my first husband in this case? Allah's Apostle said, It is unlawful to marry your first husband till the other husband consummates his marriage with you.

Read More..Narrated `Ubaid bin `Umar: I heard `Aisha saying, The Prophet used to stay for a long while with Zanab bint Jahsh and drink honey at her house. So Hafsa and I decided that if the Prophet came to anyone of us, she should say him, I detect the smell of Maghafir (a nasty smelling gum) in you. Have you eaten Maghafir?' So the Prophet visited one of them and she said to him similarly. The Prophet said, Never mind, I have taken some honey at the house of Zainab bint Jahsh, but I shall never drink of it anymore. So there was revealed: 'O Prophet ! Why do you ban (for you) that which Allah has made lawful for you . . . If you two (wives of Prophet) turn in repentance to Allah,' (66.1-4) addressing Aisha and Hafsa. 'When the Prophet disclosed a matter in confidence to some of his wives.' (66.3) namely his saying: But I have taken some honey.
Read More..Narrated `Aisha: Allah's Apostle was fond of honey and sweet edible things and (it was his habit) that after finishing the `Asr prayer he would visit his wives and stay with one of them at that time. Once he went to Hafsa, the daughter of `Umar and stayed with her more than usual. I got jealous and asked the reason for that. I was told that a lady of her folk had given her a skin filled with honey as a present, and that she made a syrup from it and gave it to the Prophet to drink (and that was the reason for the delay). I said, By Allah we will play a trick on him (to prevent him from doing so). So I said to Sa`da bint Zam`a The Prophet will approach you, and when he comes near you, say: 'Have you taken Maghafir (a bad-smelling gum)?' He will say, 'No.' Then say to him: 'Then what is this bad smell which i smell from you?' He will say to you, 'Hafsa made me drink honey syrup.' Then say: Perhaps the bees of that honey had sucked the juice of the tree of Al-`Urfut.' I shall also say the same. O you, Safiyya, say the same. Later Sa`da said, By Allah, as soon as he (the Prophet ) stood at the door, I was about to say to him what you had ordered me to say because I was afraid of you. So when the Prophet came near Sa`da, she said to him, O Allah's Apostle! Have you taken Maghafir? He said, No. She said. Then what is this bad smell which I detect on you? He said, Hafsa made me drink honey syrup. She said, Perhaps its bees had sucked the juice of Al-`Urfut tree. When he came to me, I also said the same, and when he went to Safiyya, she also said the same. And when the Prophet again went to Hafsa, she said, 'O Allah's Apostle! Shall I give you more of that drink? He said, I am not in need of it. Sa`da said, By Allah, we deprived him (of it). I said to her, Keep quiet. '
