Umar b. al-Khattab (Allah be pleased with him) reported: When Allah's Apostle ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) kept himself away from his wives, I entered the mosque, and found people striking the ground with pebblesand saying: Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) has divorced his wives, and that was before they were commanded to observe seclusion 'Umar said to himself: I must find this (actual position) today. So I went to 'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) and said (to her): Daughter of Abu Bakr, have you gone to the extent of giving trouble to Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم )? Thereupon she said: Son of Khattab, you have nothing to do with me, and I have nothing to do with you. You should look to your own receptacle. He ('Umar) said: I visited Hafsa daughter of 'Umar, and said to her: Hafsa, the (news) has reached me that you cause Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) trouble. You know that Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) does not love you, and had I not been (your father) he would have divorced you. (On hearing this) she wept bitterly. I said to her: Where is Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم )? Shesaid: He is in the attic room. I went in and found Rabah, the servant of Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ), sitting on the thresholds of the window dangling his feet on the hollow wood of the date-palm with the help of which Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) climbed (to the apartment) and came down. I cried: 0 Rabah, seek permission for me from Allah's Messenger (way peace be upon him). Rabah cast a glance at the apartment and then looked toward me but said nothing. I again said: Rabah, seek permission for me from Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ). Rabah looked towards the apartment and then cast a glance at me, but said nothig. I then raised my voice and said: 0 Rabah, seek permission for me from Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ). I think that Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) is under the impression that I have come for the sake of Hafsa. By Allah, if Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) would command me to strike her neck, I would certainly strike her neck. I raised my voice and he pointed me to climb up (and get into his apartment). I visited Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ), and he was lying on a mat. I sat down and he drew up his lower garment over him and he had nothing (else) over him, and that the mat had left its marks on his sides. I looked with my eyes in the store room of Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ). I found only a handful of barley equal to one sa' and an equal quantity of the leaves of Mimosa Flava placed in the nook of the cell, and a semi-tanned leather bag hanging (in one side), and I was moved to tears (on seeing this extremely austere living of the Holy Piophet), and he said: Ibn Khattab, what wakes you weep? I said: Apostle of Allah, why should I not shed tears? This mat has left its marks on your sides and I do not see in your store room (except these few things) that I have seen; Ceasar and Closroes are leading their lives in plenty whereas you are Allah's Messenger. His chosen one, and that is your store! He said: Ibn Khattab, aren't you satisfied that for us (there should be the prosperity) of the Hereafter, and for them (there should be the prosperity of) this world? I said: Yes. And as I had entered I had seen the signs of anger on his face, and I therefore, said: Messenger of Allah, what trouble do you feel from your wives, and if youhave divorced them, verily Allah is with you, His angels, Gabriel, Mika'il, I and Abu Bakr and the believers are with you. And seldom I talked and (which I uttered on that day) I hoped that Allah would testify to my words that I uttered. And so the verse of option (Ayat al-Takhyir) was revealed. Maybe his Lord, if he divorce you, will give him in your place wives better than you... (Ixv. 5). And if you back up one another against him, then surely Allah is his Patron, and Gabriel and the righteous believers, and the angels after that are the aidera (lvi. 4). And it was 'A'isha, daughter of Abu Bakr, and Hafsa who had prevailed upon all the wives of Allah's Prophet (way peace be upon him) for (pressing them for mote money). I said: Messenger of Allah, have you divorced them? He said: No. I said: Messenger of Allah, I entered the mosque and found the Muslims playing with pebbles (absorbed in thought) and saying: Allah's Messenger has divorced his wives. Should I get down and inform there that you have not divorced them? He said: Yes, if you so like. And I went on talking to him until I (found) the signs of anger disappeared on his face and (his seriousness was changed to a happy mood and as a result thereof) his face had the natural tranquillity upon it and he laughed and his teeth were the most charming (among the teeth) of all people. Then Allah's Apostle ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) climbed down and I also climbed down and catching hold of the wood of the palm-tree and Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) came down (with such ease) as if he was walking on the ground, not touching anything with his hand (to get support). I said: Messenger of Allah, you remained in your apartment for twenty-nine days. He said: (At times) the month consists of twenty-nine days. I stood at the door of the mosque and I called out at the top of my voice: The Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) has not divorced his wives (and it was on this occasion that this) verse was revealed: And if any matter pertaining to peace or alarm comes within their ken, they broadcast it; whereas, if they would refer it to the Apostle and those who have been entrusted with authority amongst them, those of them who are engaged in obtaining intelligence would indeed know (what to do with) it (iv 83). And it was I who understood this matter, and Allah revealed the verse pertaining to option (given to the Prophet (may peace be upon him in regard to the retaining or divorcing of his wives).
حَدَّثَنِي زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ يُونُسَ الْحَنَفِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عِكْرِمَةُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ، عَنْ سِمَاكٍ أَبِي زُمَيْلٍ، حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَبَّاسٍ، حَدَّثَنِي عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ، قَالَ: لَمَّا اعْتَزَلَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نِسَاءَهُ، قَالَ: دَخَلْتُ الْمَسْجِدَ، فَإِذَا النَّاسُ يَنْكُتُونَ بِالْحَصَى، وَيَقُولُونَ: طَلَّقَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نِسَاءَهُ، وَذَلِكَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُؤْمَرْنَ بِالْحِجَابِ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ، فَقُلْتُ: لَأَعْلَمَنَّ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ، قَالَ: فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَى عَائِشَةَ، فَقُلْتُ: يَا بِنْتَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، أَقَدْ بَلَغَ مِنْ شَأْنِكِ أَنْ تُؤْذِي رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَتْ: مَا لِي وَمَا لَكَ [ص:1106] يَا ابْنَ الْخَطَّابِ، عَلَيْكَ بِعَيْبَتِكَ، قَالَ فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَى حَفْصَةَ بِنْتِ عُمَرَ، فَقُلْتُ لَهَا: يَا حَفْصَةُ، أَقَدْ بَلَغَ مِنْ شَأْنِكِ أَنْ تُؤْذِي رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ؟ وَاللهِ، لَقَدْ عَلِمْتِ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، لَا يُحِبُّكِ، وَلَوْلَا أَنَا لَطَلَّقَكِ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَبَكَتْ أَشَدَّ الْبُكَاءِ، فَقُلْتُ لَهَا: أَيْنَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ؟ قَالَتْ: هُوَ فِي خِزَانَتِهِ فِي الْمَشْرُبَةِ، فَدَخَلْتُ، فَإِذَا أَنَا بِرَبَاحٍ غُلَامِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَاعِدًا عَلَى أُسْكُفَّةِ الْمَشْرُبَةِ، مُدَلٍّ رِجْلَيْهِ عَلَى نَقِيرٍ مِنْ خَشَبٍ - وَهُوَ جِذْعٌ يَرْقَى عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَيَنْحَدِرُ - فَنَادَيْتُ: يَا رَبَاحُ، اسْتَأْذِنْ لِي عِنْدَكَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَنَظَرَ رَبَاحٌ إِلَى الْغُرْفَةِ، ثُمَّ نَظَرَ إِلَيَّ، فَلَمْ يَقُلْ شَيْئًا، ثُمَّ قُلْتُ: يَا رَبَاحُ، اسْتَأْذِنْ لِي عِنْدَكَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَنَظَرَ رَبَاحٌ إِلَى الْغُرْفَةِ، ثُمَّ نَظَرَ إِلَيَّ، فَلَمْ يَقُلْ شَيْئًا، ثُمَّ رَفَعْتُ صَوْتِي، فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَبَاحُ، اسْتَأْذِنْ لِي عِنْدَكَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَإِنِّي أَظُنُّ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ظَنَّ أَنِّي جِئْتُ مِنْ أَجْلِ حَفْصَةَ، وَاللهِ، لَئِنْ أَمَرَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِضَرْبِ عُنُقِهَا، لَأَضْرِبَنَّ عُنُقَهَا، وَرَفَعْتُ صَوْتِي، فَأَوْمَأَ إِلَيَّ أَنِ ارْقَهْ، فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ مُضْطَجِعٌ عَلَى حَصِيرٍ، فَجَلَسْتُ، فَأَدْنَى عَلَيْهِ إِزَارَهُ وَلَيْسَ عَلَيْهِ غَيْرُهُ، وَإِذَا الْحَصِيرُ قَدْ أَثَّرَ فِي جَنْبِهِ، فَنَظَرْتُ بِبَصَرِي فِي خِزَانَةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَإِذَا أَنَا بِقَبْضَةٍ مِنْ شَعِيرٍ نَحْوِ الصَّاعِ، وَمِثْلِهَا قَرَظًا فِي نَاحِيَةِ [ص:1107] الْغُرْفَةِ، وَإِذَا أَفِيقٌ مُعَلَّقٌ، قَالَ: فَابْتَدَرَتْ عَيْنَايَ، قَالَ: «مَا يُبْكِيكَ يَا ابْنَ الْخَطَّابِ» قُلْتُ: يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ، وَمَا لِي لَا أَبْكِي وَهَذَا الْحَصِيرُ قَدْ أَثَّرَ فِي جَنْبِكَ، وَهَذِهِ خِزَانَتُكَ لَا أَرَى فِيهَا إِلَّا مَا أَرَى، وَذَاكَ قَيْصَرُ وَكِسْرَى فِي الثِّمَارِ وَالْأَنْهَارِ، وَأَنْتَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَصَفْوَتُهُ، وَهَذِهِ خِزَانَتُكَ، فَقَالَ: «يَا ابْنَ الْخَطَّابِ، أَلَا تَرْضَى أَنْ تَكُونَ لَنَا الْآخِرَةُ وَلَهُمُ الدُّنْيَا؟»، قُلْتُ: بَلَى، قَالَ: وَدَخَلْتُ عَلَيْهِ حِينَ دَخَلْتُ، وَأَنَا أَرَى فِي وَجْهِهِ الْغَضَبَ، فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، مَا يَشُقُّ عَلَيْكَ مِنْ شَأْنِ النِّسَاءِ؟ فَإِنْ كُنْتَ طَلَّقْتَهُنَّ، فَإِنَّ اللهَ مَعَكَ، وَمَلَائِكَتَهُ، وَجِبْرِيلَ، وَمِيكَائِيلَ، وَأَنَا، وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ، وَالْمُؤْمِنُونَ مَعَكَ، وَقَلَّمَا تَكَلَّمْتُ وَأَحْمَدُ اللهَ بِكَلَامٍ، إِلَّا رَجَوْتُ أَنْ يَكُونَ اللهُ يُصَدِّقُ قَوْلِي الَّذِي أَقُولُ، وَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ آيَةُ التَّخْيِيرِ: {عَسَى رَبُّهُ إِنْ طَلَّقَكُنَّ أَنْ يُبْدِلَهُ أَزْوَاجًا خَيْرًا مِنْكُنَّ} [التحريم: 5]، {وَإِنْ تَظَاهَرَا عَلَيْهِ فَإِنَّ اللهَ هُوَ مَوْلَاهُ وَجِبْرِيلُ وَصَالِحُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَالْمَلَائِكَةُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ ظَهِيرٌ} [التحريم: 4]، وَكَانَتْ عَائِشَةُ بِنْتُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، وَحَفْصَةُ تَظَاهَرَانِ عَلَى سَائِرِ نِسَاءِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَطَلَّقْتَهُنَّ؟ قَالَ: «لَا»، قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنِّي دَخَلْتُ الْمَسْجِدَ وَالْمُسْلِمُونَ يَنْكُتُونَ بِالْحَصَى، يَقُولُونَ: طَلَّقَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نِسَاءَهُ، أَفَأَنْزِلُ، فَأُخْبِرَهُمْ أَنَّكَ لَمْ تُطَلِّقْهُنَّ، قَالَ: «نَعَمْ، إِنْ شِئْتَ»، فَلَمْ أَزَلْ أُحَدِّثُهُ حَتَّى تَحَسَّرَ الْغَضَبُ عَنْ وَجْهِهِ، وَحَتَّى كَشَرَ فَضَحِكَ، وَكَانَ مِنْ أَحْسَنِ النَّاسِ ثَغْرًا، ثُمَّ نَزَلَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَنَزَلْتُ، فَنَزَلْتُ أَتَشَبَّثُ بِالْجِذْعِ، وَنَزَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَأَنَّمَا يَمْشِي عَلَى الْأَرْضِ مَا يَمَسُّهُ بِيَدِهِ، فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّمَا كُنْتَ فِي الْغُرْفَةِ تِسْعَةً وَعِشْرِينَ، قَالَ: «إِنَّ الشَّهْرَ يَكُونُ تِسْعًا وَعِشْرِينَ»، فَقُمْتُ عَلَى بَابِ الْمَسْجِدِ، فَنَادَيْتُ بِأَعْلَى صَوْتِي، لَمْ يُطَلِّقْ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نِسَاءَهُ، وَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ: {وَإِذَا جَاءَهُمْ أَمْرٌ مِنَ الْأَمْنِ أَوِ الْخَوْفِ أَذَاعُوا بِهِ وَلَوْ رَدُّوهُ إِلَى الرَّسُولِ وَإِلَى أُولِي الْأَمْرِ مِنْهُمْ لَعَلِمَهُ الَّذِينَ يَسْتَنْبِطُونَهُ مِنْهُمْ} [النساء: 83] فَكُنْتُ أَنَا اسْتَنْبَطْتُ ذَلِكَ الْأَمْرَ، وَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ آيَةَ التَّخْيِيرِ
  سماک ابوزمیل سے روایت ہے ، ( انہوں نے کہا : ) مجھے عبداللہ بن عباس رضی اللہ عنہ نے حدیث بیان کی ، ( کہا : ) مجھے عمر بن خطاب رضی اللہ عنہ نے حدیث بیان کی ، انہوں نے کہا : جب نبی صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے اپنی ازواج سے علیحدگی اختیار فرمائی ، کہا : میں مسجد میں داخل ہوا تو لوگوں کو دیکھا وہ ( پریشانی اور تفکر میں ) کنکریاں زمین پر مار رہے ہیں ، اور کہہ رہے ہیں : رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے اپنی بیویوں کو طلاق دے دی ہے ، یہ واقعہ انہیں پردے کا حکم دیے جانے سے پہلے کا ہے ۔ عمر رضی اللہ عنہ نے کہا : میں نے ( دل میں ) کہا : آج میں اس معاملے کو جان کر رہوں گا ۔ انہوں نے کہا : میں عائشہ رضی اللہ عنہا کے پاس گیا ، اور کہا : ابوبکر رضی اللہ عنہ کی بیٹی! تم اس حد تک پہنچ چکی ہو کہ اللہ کے رسول صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کو اذیت دو؟ انہوں نے جواب دیا : خطاب کے بیٹے! آپ کا مجھ سے کیا واسطہ؟ آپ اپنی گھٹڑی ( یا تھیلا وغیرہ جس میں قیمتی ساز و سامان سنبھال کر رکھا جاتا ہے یعنی اپنی بیٹی حفصہ رضی اللہ عنہا ) کی فکر کریں ۔ انہوں نے کہا : پھر میں ( اپنی بیٹی ) حفصہ بنت عمر رضی اللہ عنہا کے پاس آیا اور کہا : حفصہ! کیا تم اس حد تک پہنچ گئی ہو کہ اللہ کے رسول صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کو تکلیف دو؟ اللہ کی قسم! تمہیں خوب معلوم ہے کہ اللہ کے رسول صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم تم سے محبت نہیں رکھتے ۔ اگر میں نہ ہوتا تو رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم تمہیں طلاق دے دیتے ۔ ( میری یہ بات سن کر ) وہ بری طرح سے رونے لگیں ۔ میں نے ان سے پوچھا : اللہ کے رسول صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کہاں ہیں؟ انہوں نے جواب دیا : وہ اپنے بالا خانے پر سامان رکھنے والی جگہ میں ہیں ۔ میں وہاں گیا تو دیکھا رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کا غلام رَباح چوبارے کی چوکھٹ کے نیچے والی لکڑی پر بیٹھا ہے ۔ اس نے اپنے دونوں پاؤں لکڑی کی سوراخ دار سیڑھی پر لٹکا رکھے ہیں ۔ وہ کھجور کا ایک تنا تھا ، رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم اس پر ( قدم رکھ کر ) چڑھتے اور اترتے تھے ۔ میں نے آواز دی ، رباح! مجھے اپنے پاس ، رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کی خدمت میں ، حاضر ہونے کی اجازت لے دو ۔ رباح رضی اللہ عنہ نے بالا خانے کی طرف نظر کی ، پھر مجھے دیکھا اور کچھ نہ کہا ۔ میں نے پھر کہا : رباح! مجھے اپنے پاس ، رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کی خدمت میں ، حاضر ہونے کی اجازت لے دو ، رباح رضی اللہ عنہ نے ( دوبارہ ) بالا خانے کی طرف نگاہ اٹھائی ، پھر مجھے دیکھا ، اور کچھ نہ کہا ، پھر میں نے اپنی آواز کو بلند کی اور کہا : اے رباح! مجھے اپنے پاس ، رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کی خدمت میں ، حاضر ہونے کی اجازت لے دو ، میرا خیال ہے کہ رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے سمجھا ہے کہ میں حفصہ رضی اللہ عنہا کی ( سفارش کرنے کی ) خاطر آیا ہوں ، اللہ کی قسم! اگر رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم مجھے اس کی گردن اڑانے کا حکم دیں تو میں اس کی گردن اڑا دوں گا ، اور میں نے اپنی آواز کو ( خوب ) بلند کیا ، تو اس نے مجھے اشارہ کیا کہ اوپر چڑھ آؤ ۔ میں رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کی خدمت میں حاضر ہوا ، آپ ایک چٹائی پر لیٹے ہوئے تھے ، میں بیٹھ گیا ، آپ نے اپنا ازار درست کیا اور آپ ( کے جسم ) پر اس کے علاوہ اور کچھ نہ تھا اور چٹائی نے آپ کے جسم پر نشان ڈال دیے تھے ۔ میں نے اپنی آنکھوں سے رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کے سامان کے کمرے میں دیکھا تو صرف مٹھی بھر جو ایک صاع کے برابر ہوں گے ، جَو اور کمرے کے ایک کونے میں اتنی ہی کیکر کی چھال دیکھی ۔ اس کے علاوہ ایک غیر دباغت شدہ چمڑا لٹکا ہوا تھا ۔ کہا : تو میری آنکھیں بہ پڑیں ، آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے پوچھا : " ابن خطاب! تمہیں رُلا کیا چیز رہی ہے؟ " میں نے عرض کی : اللہ کے نبی! میں کیوں نہ روؤں؟ اس چٹائی نے آپ کے جسم اطہر پر نشان ڈال دیے ہیں ، اور یہ آپ کا سامان رکھنے کا کمرہ ہے ، اس میں وہی کچھ ہے جو مجھے نظر آرہا ہے ، اور قیصر و کسری نہروں اور پھلوں کے درمیان ( شاندار زندگی بسر کر رہے ) ہیں ، جبکہ آپ تو اللہ کے رسول اور اس کی چنی ہوئی ہستی ہیں ، اور یہ آپ کا سارا سامان ہے ۔ آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا : " ابن خطاب! کیا تمہیں پسند نہیں کہ ہمارے لیے آخرت ہو اور ان کے لیے دنیا ہو؟ " میں نے عرض کی : کیوں نہیں! کہا : جب میں رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کی خدمت میں حاضر ہوا تھا تو آپکے چہرے پر غصہ دیکھ رہا تھا ، میں نے عرض کی : اللہ کے رسول! آپ کو ( اپنی ) بیویوں کی حالت کی بنا پر کیا دشواری ہے؟ اگر آپ نے انہیں طلاق دے دی ہے تو اللہ آپ کے ساتھ ہے ، اس کے فرشتے ، جبرئیل ، میکائیل ، میں ، ابوبکر اور تمام مومن آپ کے ساتھ ہیں ۔ اور میں اللہ کا شکر ادا کرتا ہوں کہ میں نے کم ہی کوئی بات کہی ، مگر میں نے امید کی کہ اللہ میری اس بات کی تصدیق فرما دے گا جو میں کہہ رہا ہوں ۔ ( چنانچہ ایسے ہی ہوا ) اور یہ تخییر کی آیت نازل ہو گئی : " اگر وہ ( نبی ) تم سب ( بیویوں ) کو طلاق دے دیں تو قریب ہے کہ ان کا رب ، انہیں تم سے بہتر بیویاں بدلے میں دے ۔ " اور " اگر تم دونوں ان کے خلاف ایک دوسرے کی مدد کرو گی ، تو اللہ خود ان کا نگہبان ہے ، اور جبریل اور صالح مومن اور اس کے بعد تمام فرشتے ( ان کے ) مددگار ہیں ۔ " عائشہ بنت ابی بکر اور حفصہ رضی اللہ عنہن دونوں نبی صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کی تمام بیویوں کے مقابلے میں ایک دوسرے کا ساتھ دیتی تھیں ۔ میں نے عرض کی : اے اللہ کے رسول! کیا آپ نے ان کو طلاق دے دی ہے؟ آپ نے فرمایا : " نہیں ۔ " میں نے عرض کی : اے اللہ کے رسول! میں مسجد میں داخل ہوا تھا تو لوگ کنکریاں زمین پر مار رہے تھے ، اور کہہ رہے تھے : اللہ کے رسول صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے اپنی بیویوں کو چلاق دے دی ہے ۔ کیا میں اتر کر انہیں بتا دوں کہ آپ نے ان ( بیویوں ) کو طلاق نہیں دی؟ آپ نے فرمایا : " ہاں ، اگر چاہو ۔ " میں مسلسل آپ سے گفتگو کرتا رہا یہاں تک کہ آپ کے چہرے سے غصہ دور ہو گیا ، اور یہاں تک کہ آپ کے لب وار ہوئے اور آپ ہنسے ۔ آپ کے سامنے والے دندانِ مبارک سب انسانوں سے زیادہ خوبصورت تھے ۔ پھر اللہ کے نبی صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ( بالا خانے سے نیچے ) اترے ۔ میں تنے کو تھامتے ہوئے اترا اور رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ایسے اترے جیسے زمین پر چل رہے ہوں ، آپ نے تنے کو ہاتھ تک نہ لگایا ۔ میں نے عرض کی : اللہ کے رسول! آپ بالا خانے میں 29 دن رہے ہیں ۔ آپ نے فرمایا : " مہینہ 29 دن کا ہوتا ہے ۔ " چنانچہ میں مسجد کے دروازے پر کھڑا ہوا ، اور بلند آواز سے پکار کر کہا : رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے اپنی بیویوں کو طلاق نہیں دی ، اور ( پھر ) یہ آیت نازل ہوئی : " اور جب ان کے پاس امن یا خوف کی کوئی خبر آتی ہے تو اسے مشہور کر دیتے ہیں ، اور اگر وہ اسے رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کی طرف اور اپنے معاملات سنبھالنے والوں کی طرف لوٹا دیتے ، تو وہ لوگ جو ان میں اس سے اصل مطلب اخذ کرتے ہیں اسے ضرور جان لیتے ۔ " تو میں ہی تھا جس نے اس معاملے کی اصل حقیقت کو اخذ کیا ، اور اللہ تعالیٰ نے تخییر کی آیت نازل فرمائی

sahih-muslim-3692

Abdullah b. Abbas (Allah be pleased with tlicm) reported: I intended to ask 'Umar b. al-Khattab (Allah be pleased with him) about a verse, but I waited for one year to ask him out of his fear, until he went out for Pilgrimage and I also accompanied him. As he came back and we were on the way he stepped aside towards an Arak tree to ease himself. I waited for him until he was free. I then walked along with him and said: Commander of the Faithful, who are the two among the wives of Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) who backed up one another (in their demand for extra money)? He said: They were Hafsa and 'A'isha (Allah be pleased with them). I said to him: It is for one year that I intended to ask you about this matter but I could not date so on account of the awe for you. He said: Don't do that. If you think that I have any knowledge, do ask me about that. And if I were to know that, I would inform you. He (the narrator) stated that 'Umar had said: By Allah, during the days of ignorance we had no regard for women until Allah the Exalt- ed revealed about them what He has revealed, and appointed (turn) for them what he appointed. He said: It so happened that I was thinking about some matter that my wife said: I wish you had done that and that. I said to her: It does not concern you and you should not feel disturbed in a matter which I intend to do. She said to me: How strange is it that you, O son of Khattab, do not like anyone to retort upon you, whereas your daughter retorts upon Allah's Messenger (may peace be upou him) until he spends the day in vexation. 'Umar said: I took hold of my cloak, then came out of my house until I visited Hafsa and said to her: O daughter, (I heard) that you retort upon Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) until he spends the day in vexation, whereupon Hafsa said: By Allah, we do retort upon him. I said: You should bear in mind, my daughter, that I warn you against the punishment of Allah and the wrath of His Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ). You may not be misled by one whose beauty has fascinated her, and the love of Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) for her. I ('Umar) then visited Umm Salama because of my relationship with her and I talked to her. Umm Salama said to me: Umar b. al-Khattab, how strange is it that you meddle with every matter so much so that you are anxious to interfere between Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) and his wives, and this perturbed me so much that I refrained from saying what I had to say, so I came out of her apartment, and I had a friend from the Anar. When I had been absent (from the company of the Holy Prophet) he used to bring me the news and when he had been absent I used to bring him the news, and at that time we dreaded a king of Ghassan. It was mentioned to us that he intended to attack us, and our minds were haunted by him. My friend, the Ansari, came to me, and he knocked at the door and said: Open it, open it. I said: Has the Ghassani come? He said: (The matter is) more serious than that. The Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) has separated himself from his wives. I said: Let the nose of Hafsa and 'A'isha be besmeared with dust. I then took hold of my cloth and went out until I came and found Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) in his attic to which he climbed by means of a ladder made of date-palm, and the servant of Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) who was black had been sitting at the end of the ladder. I said: This is Umar. So permission was granted to me. I narrated this news to Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) and as I narrated the news concerning Umm Salama, Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) smiled. He was lying on the mat and there was nothing between him and that (mat), and under his head there was a pillow made of leather and it was stuffed with plam fibres and at his feet were lying a heap of sant tree (acacia niloctica, meant for dyeing) and near his head there was hanging a hide. And I saw the marks of the maton the side of Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ), and so I wept. He said: What makes you weep? I said: Messenger of Allah, the Khusrau and the Ceasars (spendd their lives in) the midst of (luxuries), whereas you being Allah's Messenger (are leading your life in this poverty). Thereupon Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) said: Don't you like that they should have riches of their world, and you have the Hereafter.

Ibn Abbas (Allah be pleased with them) said: I came along with Umar until we reached Marr al-Zahran (the name of a place), and the rest of the hadith is the same as narrated by Sulaiman b. Bilal (except with) the variation (of words) that I said: (What) about these two women? He said: They were Hafsa and Umm Salama. And he made this addition: I came to the apartments and in every apartment there was (the noise) of weeping. And this addition was also made: And he (the Holy Prophet) had taken an oath of remaining away from them for a month, and when twenty-nine days had passed, he visited them.

Umar b. al-Khattab (Allah be pleased with him) reported: When Allah's Apostle ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) kept himself away from his wives, I entered the mosque, and found people striking the ground with pebblesand saying: Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) has divorced his wives, and that was before they were commanded to observe seclusion 'Umar said to himself: I must find this (actual position) today. So I went to 'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) and said (to her): Daughter of Abu Bakr, have you gone to the extent of giving trouble to Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم )? Thereupon she said: Son of Khattab, you have nothing to do with me, and I have nothing to do with you. You should look to your own receptacle. He ('Umar) said: I visited Hafsa daughter of 'Umar, and said to her: Hafsa, the (news) has reached me that you cause Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) trouble. You know that Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) does not love you, and had I not been (your father) he would have divorced you. (On hearing this) she wept bitterly. I said to her: Where is Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم )? Shesaid: He is in the attic room. I went in and found Rabah, the servant of Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ), sitting on the thresholds of the window dangling his feet on the hollow wood of the date-palm with the help of which Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) climbed (to the apartment) and came down. I cried: 0 Rabah, seek permission for me from Allah's Messenger (way peace be upon him). Rabah cast a glance at the apartment and then looked toward me but said nothing. I again said: Rabah, seek permission for me from Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ). Rabah looked towards the apartment and then cast a glance at me, but said nothig. I then raised my voice and said: 0 Rabah, seek permission for me from Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ). I think that Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) is under the impression that I have come for the sake of Hafsa. By Allah, if Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) would command me to strike her neck, I would certainly strike her neck. I raised my voice and he pointed me to climb up (and get into his apartment). I visited Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ), and he was lying on a mat. I sat down and he drew up his lower garment over him and he had nothing (else) over him, and that the mat had left its marks on his sides. I looked with my eyes in the store room of Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ). I found only a handful of barley equal to one sa' and an equal quantity of the leaves of Mimosa Flava placed in the nook of the cell, and a semi-tanned leather bag hanging (in one side), and I was moved to tears (on seeing this extremely austere living of the Holy Piophet), and he said: Ibn Khattab, what wakes you weep? I said: Apostle of Allah, why should I not shed tears? This mat has left its marks on your sides and I do not see in your store room (except these few things) that I have seen; Ceasar and Closroes are leading their lives in plenty whereas you are Allah's Messenger. His chosen one, and that is your store! He said: Ibn Khattab, aren't you satisfied that for us (there should be the prosperity) of the Hereafter, and for them (there should be the prosperity of) this world? I said: Yes. And as I had entered I had seen the signs of anger on his face, and I therefore, said: Messenger of Allah, what trouble do you feel from your wives, and if youhave divorced them, verily Allah is with you, His angels, Gabriel, Mika'il, I and Abu Bakr and the believers are with you. And seldom I talked and (which I uttered on that day) I hoped that Allah would testify to my words that I uttered. And so the verse of option (Ayat al-Takhyir) was revealed. Maybe his Lord, if he divorce you, will give him in your place wives better than you... (Ixv. 5). And if you back up one another against him, then surely Allah is his Patron, and Gabriel and the righteous believers, and the angels after that are the aidera (lvi. 4). And it was 'A'isha, daughter of Abu Bakr, and Hafsa who had prevailed upon all the wives of Allah's Prophet (way peace be upon him) for (pressing them for mote money). I said: Messenger of Allah, have you divorced them? He said: No. I said: Messenger of Allah, I entered the mosque and found the Muslims playing with pebbles (absorbed in thought) and saying: Allah's Messenger has divorced his wives. Should I get down and inform there that you have not divorced them? He said: Yes, if you so like. And I went on talking to him until I (found) the signs of anger disappeared on his face and (his seriousness was changed to a happy mood and as a result thereof) his face had the natural tranquillity upon it and he laughed and his teeth were the most charming (among the teeth) of all people. Then Allah's Apostle ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) climbed down and I also climbed down and catching hold of the wood of the palm-tree and Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) came down (with such ease) as if he was walking on the ground, not touching anything with his hand (to get support). I said: Messenger of Allah, you remained in your apartment for twenty-nine days. He said: (At times) the month consists of twenty-nine days. I stood at the door of the mosque and I called out at the top of my voice: The Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) has not divorced his wives (and it was on this occasion that this) verse was revealed: And if any matter pertaining to peace or alarm comes within their ken, they broadcast it; whereas, if they would refer it to the Apostle and those who have been entrusted with authority amongst them, those of them who are engaged in obtaining intelligence would indeed know (what to do with) it (iv 83). And it was I who understood this matter, and Allah revealed the verse pertaining to option (given to the Prophet (may peace be upon him in regard to the retaining or divorcing of his wives).

Abdullah b. Abbas (Allah be pleased with tlicm) reported: I intended to ask 'Umar b. al-Khattab (Allah be pleased with him) about a verse, but I waited for one year to ask him out of his fear, until he went out for Pilgrimage and I also accompanied him. As he came back and we were on the way he stepped aside towards an Arak tree to ease himself. I waited for him until he was free. I then walked along with him and said: Commander of the Faithful, who are the two among the wives of Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) who backed up one another (in their demand for extra money)? He said: They were Hafsa and 'A'isha (Allah be pleased with them). I said to him: It is for one year that I intended to ask you about this matter but I could not date so on account of the awe for you. He said: Don't do that. If you think that I have any knowledge, do ask me about that. And if I were to know that, I would inform you. He (the narrator) stated that 'Umar had said: By Allah, during the days of ignorance we had no regard for women until Allah the Exalt- ed revealed about them what He has revealed, and appointed (turn) for them what he appointed. He said: It so happened that I was thinking about some matter that my wife said: I wish you had done that and that. I said to her: It does not concern you and you should not feel disturbed in a matter which I intend to do. She said to me: How strange is it that you, O son of Khattab, do not like anyone to retort upon you, whereas your daughter retorts upon Allah's Messenger (may peace be upou him) until he spends the day in vexation. 'Umar said: I took hold of my cloak, then came out of my house until I visited Hafsa and said to her: O daughter, (I heard) that you retort upon Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) until he spends the day in vexation, whereupon Hafsa said: By Allah, we do retort upon him. I said: You should bear in mind, my daughter, that I warn you against the punishment of Allah and the wrath of His Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ). You may not be misled by one whose beauty has fascinated her, and the love of Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) for her. I ('Umar) then visited Umm Salama because of my relationship with her and I talked to her. Umm Salama said to me: Umar b. al-Khattab, how strange is it that you meddle with every matter so much so that you are anxious to interfere between Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) and his wives, and this perturbed me so much that I refrained from saying what I had to say, so I came out of her apartment, and I had a friend from the Anar. When I had been absent (from the company of the Holy Prophet) he used to bring me the news and when he had been absent I used to bring him the news, and at that time we dreaded a king of Ghassan. It was mentioned to us that he intended to attack us, and our minds were haunted by him. My friend, the Ansari, came to me, and he knocked at the door and said: Open it, open it. I said: Has the Ghassani come? He said: (The matter is) more serious than that. The Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) has separated himself from his wives. I said: Let the nose of Hafsa and 'A'isha be besmeared with dust. I then took hold of my cloth and went out until I came and found Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) in his attic to which he climbed by means of a ladder made of date-palm, and the servant of Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) who was black had been sitting at the end of the ladder. I said: This is Umar. So permission was granted to me. I narrated this news to Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) and as I narrated the news concerning Umm Salama, Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) smiled. He was lying on the mat and there was nothing between him and that (mat), and under his head there was a pillow made of leather and it was stuffed with plam fibres and at his feet were lying a heap of sant tree (acacia niloctica, meant for dyeing) and near his head there was hanging a hide. And I saw the marks of the maton the side of Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ), and so I wept. He said: What makes you weep? I said: Messenger of Allah, the Khusrau and the Ceasars (spendd their lives in) the midst of (luxuries), whereas you being Allah's Messenger (are leading your life in this poverty). Thereupon Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) said: Don't you like that they should have riches of their world, and you have the Hereafter.

Fatima bint Qais reported that Abu 'Amr b. Hafs divorced her absolutely when he was away from home, and he sent his agent to her with some barley. She was displeased with him and when he said: I swear by Allah that you have no claim on us. she went to Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) and mentioned that to him. He said: There is no maintenance due to you from him, and he commanded her to spend the 'Idda in the house of Umm Sharik, but then said: That is a woman whom my companions visit. So better spend this period in the house of Ibn Umm Maktum, for he is a blind man and yon can put off your garments. And when the 'Idda is over, inform me. She said: When my period of 'Idda was over, I mentioned to him that Mu'awiya b. Abu Sufyan and Jahm had sent proposal of marriage to me, whereupon Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) said: As for Abu Jahm, he does not put down his staff from his shoulder, and as for Mu'awiya, he is a poor man having no property; marry Usama b. Zaid. I objected to him, but he again said: Marry Usama; so I married him. Allah blessed there in and I was envied (by others).
