حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عُمَرَ حَدَّثَنَا مُعْتَمِرٌ سَمِعْتُ أَبِي يَذْکُرُ عَنْ أَبِي مِجْلَزٍ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِکٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ لَمَّا تَزَوَّجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ زَيْنَبَ بِنْتَ جَحْشٍ دَعَا النَّاسَ طَعِمُوا ثُمَّ جَلَسُوا يَتَحَدَّثُونَ قَالَ فَأَخَذَ کَأَنَّهُ يَتَهَيَّأُ لِلْقِيَامِ فَلَمْ يَقُومُوا فَلَمَّا رَأَی ذَلِکَ قَامَ فَلَمَّا قَامَ قَامَ مَنْ قَامَ مَعَهُ مِنْ النَّاسِ وَبَقِيَ ثَلَاثَةٌ وَإِنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ جَائَ لِيَدْخُلَ فَإِذَا الْقَوْمُ جُلُوسٌ ثُمَّ إِنَّهُمْ قَامُوا فَانْطَلَقُوا قَالَ فَجِئْتُ فَأَخْبَرْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُمْ قَدْ انْطَلَقُوا فَجَائَ حَتَّی دَخَلَ فَذَهَبْتُ أَدْخُلُ فَأَرْخَی الْحِجَابَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَهُ وَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَی يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَا تَدْخُلُوا بُيُوتَ النَّبِيِّ إِلَّا أَنْ يُؤْذَنَ لَکُمْ إِلَی قَوْلِهِ إِنَّ ذَلِکُمْ کَانَ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ عَظِيمًا
صحیح بخاری · Hadith 6271
Narrated Anas bin Malik: When Allah's Apostle married Zainab bint Jahsh, he invited the people who took their meals and then remained sitting and talking. The Prophet pretended to be ready to get up, but the people did not get up. When he noticed that, he got up, and when he had got up, some of those people got up along with him and there remained three (who kept on sitting). Then the Prophet came back and found those people still sitting. Later on those people got up and went away. So I went to the Prophet and informed him that they had left. The Prophet came, and entered (his house). I wanted to enter(along with him) but he dropped a curtain between me and him. Allah then revealed: 'O you who believe! Do not enter the Prophet's Houses until leave is given... (to His statement)... Verily! That shall be an enormity, in Allah's sight.' (33.53)
