What did Aisha mean by her saying, "O Messenger of Allah, I do not see your Lord but that He hastens to fulfill your desire," when a verse was revealed permitting the Prophet to marry his adopted son's wife?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) made her statement regarding the Prophet’s (peace be upon him) marriage to Zaynab, after Allah Almighty revealed: {You may postpone [the turn of] whom you will among them and take to yourself whom you will. And any that you desire of those [wives] from whom you had [temporarily] separated – there is no blame upon you [in approaching them again]}. She meant by this that Allah was lightening the burden on the Prophet and granting him ease.
