حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النُّعْمَانِ حَدَّثَنَا مُعْتَمِرٌ قَالَ أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مِجْلَزٍ عَنْ أَنَسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ لَمَّا تَزَوَّجَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ زَيْنَبَ دَخَلَ الْقَوْمُ فَطَعِمُوا ثُمَّ جَلَسُوا يَتَحَدَّثُونَ فَأَخَذَ کَأَنَّهُ يَتَهَيَّأُ لِلْقِيَامِ فَلَمْ يَقُومُوا فَلَمَّا رَأَی ذَلِکَ قَامَ فَلَمَّا قَامَ قَامَ مَنْ قَامَ مِنْ الْقَوْمِ وَقَعَدَ بَقِيَّةُ الْقَوْمِ وَإِنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ جَائَ لِيَدْخُلَ فَإِذَا الْقَوْمُ جُلُوسٌ ثُمَّ إِنَّهُمْ قَامُوا فَانْطَلَقُوا فَأَخْبَرْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَجَائَ حَتَّی دَخَلَ فَذَهَبْتُ أَدْخُلُ فَأَلْقَی الْحِجَابَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَهُ وَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَی يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَا تَدْخُلُوا بُيُوتَ النَّبِيِّ الْآيَةَ
صحیح بخاری · Hadith 6239
Narrated Anas: When the Prophet married Zainab, the people came and were offered a meal, and then they sat down (after finishing their meals) and started chatting. The Prophet showed as if he wanted to get up, but they did not get up. When he noticed that, he got up, and some of the people also got up and went away, while some others kept on sitting. When the Prophet returned to enter, he found the people still sitting, but then they got up and left. So I told the Prophet of their departure and he came and went in. I intended to go in but the Prophet put a screen between me and him, for Allah revealed:-- 'O you who believe! Enter not the Prophet's houses..' (33.53)
