Reading a research paper on the meaning of Aisha's (may Allah be pleased with her) statement: "And I ask you not to inform any of your wives of what I said."
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : This is what he says: "Al-Abi, may Allah have mercy on him, said regarding Aisha's (may Allah be pleased with her) statement, 'And I ask you not to inform any of your wives of what I said,' that this is a statement she made to no one else and she was eager to keep it to herself. It seems she anticipated that if she did not inform any of her co-wives, she would be the one chosen for this world and they would be divorced. And if they heard of Aisha's choice, they would follow her in that. And that is exactly what happened." We mentioned this, or did we not? Good. The second one: "It says, Ibn Hajar said regarding this hadith: 'The woman is complete in opinion and understanding, yet she committed what is not fitting for her status by asking the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) not to inform any of his wives of her action. However, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), when he knew that what motivated her to do so was the nature of women regarding jealousy and the love of exclusivity over their co-wives, did not grant her what she requested in that matter or from that matter.'" May Allah reward you.
Yes, and this is also a possibility we mentioned, and we said that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) intended to be frank in his matter, and that if he is asked, he must answer with the reality. And may Allah reward you, O Abd al-Rahman.
