Sahih al-Bukhari 3612 (Book 62, Hadith 120)
companions (i.e. the other wives of the Prophet) gathered in the house of Um Salama and said, “O Um
Salama! By Allah, the people choose to send presents on the day of `Aisha’s turn and we too, love the
good (i.e. presents etc.) as `Aisha does. You should tell Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) to tell the people to send their
presents to him wherever he may be, or wherever his turn may be.” Um Salama said that to the
Prophet and he turned away from her, and when the Prophet (ﷺ) returned to her (i.e. Um Salama), she
repeated the same, and the Prophet (ﷺ) again turned away, and when she told him the same for the third
time, the Prophet (ﷺ) said, “O Um Salama! Don’t trouble me by harming `Aisha, for by Allah, the Divine
Inspiration never came to me while I was under the blanket of any woman amongst you except her.”
“ يَا أُمَّ سَلَمَةَ لاَ تُؤْذِينِي فِي عَائِشَةَ، فَإِنَّهُ وَاللَّهِ مَا نَزَلَ عَلَىَّ الْوَحْىُ وَأَنَا فِي لِحَافِ امْرَأَةٍ مِنْكُنَّ غَيْرِهَا ”.
