Sahih al-Bukhari 5792

Hadith text

Narrated `Aisha:(the wife of the Prophet) The wife of Rifa`a Al-Qurazi came to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) while I was sitting, and Abu Bakr was also there. She said, 'O Allah's Apostle! I was the wife of Rifa`a and he divorced me irrevocably. Then I married `AbdurRahman bin Az-Zubair who, by Allah, O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ), has only something like a fringe of a garment, Showing the fringe of her veil. Khalid bin Sa`id, who was standing at the door, for he had not been admitted, heard her statement and said, "O Abu Bakr! Why do you not stop this lady from saying such things openly before Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)?" No, by Allah, Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) did nothing but smiled. Then he said to the lady, "Perhaps you want to return to Rifa`a? That is impossible unless `Abdur-Rahman consummates his marriage with you." That became the tradition after him

Aisha (Nabi ki zawja) bataati hain: Rifa'a Al-Qurazi ki biwi Allah ke Rasool (SAW) ke paas aayi jab main baithi thi, aur Abu Bakr bhi wahaan the. Usne kaha, 'Aye Allah ke Rasool! Main Rifa'a ki biwi thi aur unhone mujhe qatai talaaq de di. Phir maine Abdur Rahman bin Az-Zubair se nikaah kiya jinke paas, Allah ki qasam, Aye Allah ke Rasool, sirf ek kapde ke kinaare jaisa kuch hai,' apne dupatte ka kinaara dikhaate hue. Khalid bin Saeed, jo darwaaze par khade the kyunke unhein andar aane ki ijaazat nahi mili thi, unhone uski baat suni aur kaha, 'Aye Abu Bakr! Aap is khaatoon ko Allah ke Rasool (SAW) ke saamne aise khule aam ye baatein kehne se kyun nahi rokte?' Nahi, Allah ki qasam, Allah ke Rasool (SAW) ne bas muskuraaya. Phir unhone khaatoon se kaha, 'Shaayad tum Rifa'a ke paas wapas jaana chahti ho? Ye tab tak mumkin nahi jab tak Abdur Rahman tumhaare saath apna nikaah poora (rukhsati) na kar le.' Ye unke baad ek riwaayat (tareeka) ban gaya.
