و حَدَّثَنَاه أَبُو بَکْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَةُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ عَنْ هِشَامٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أَنَّهَا کَانَتْ تَقُولُ أَمَا تَسْتَحْيِي امْرَأَةٌ تَهَبُ نَفْسَهَا لِرَجُلٍ حَتَّی أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ تُرْجِي مَنْ تَشَائُ مِنْهُنَّ وَتُؤْوِي إِلَيْکَ مَنْ تَشَائُ فَقُلْتُ إِنَّ رَبَّکَ لَيُسَارِعُ لَکَ فِي هَوَاکَ
صحیح مسلم · Hadith 3632
A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) reported: I felt jealous of the women who offered themselves to Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) and said: Then when Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, revealed this: You may defer any one of them you wish, and take to yourself any you wish; and if you desire any you have set aside (no sin is chargeable to you) (xxxiii. 51), I ('A'isha.) said: It seems to me that your Lord hastens to satisfy your desire.
