[Machine] The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said to Zaid, "Go and remind her of me." He went until he reached her while she was kneading dough. When I saw her, my heart trembled so much that I could not even look at her. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ had mentioned her. Hashim said, "When I realized that the Prophet ﷺ had married her, I turned away from her and lowered my head, then I said, 'O Zainab, rejoice! The Messenger of Allah ﷺ has sent me to remind you of him.' She said, 'I don't do anything until my Lord commands me.' Then she went to her mosque and the Quran was revealed. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to her house without permission. Hashim said, 'We saw that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave us bread and meat to eat.' After the people left, some men stayed in the house talking. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came out and I followed him. He started walking and I followed his footsteps, observing the rocks on the way. He entered the houses of his wives and greeted them. They said, 'O Messenger of Allah, how did you find your family?' He said, 'I do not know if I informed them that the people had left or if someone else did.' He then went into the house. I wanted to enter with him, but he threw a curtain between me and himself, and the veil descended. Hashim said, 'The people were advised not to enter the houses of the Prophet ﷺ without permission, except when they were called for food, not being able to see it.' [Al-Ahzab 33:53] 'And do not speak intimately to him, as you would speak to ordinary people, for that would hurt the Prophet, though he would refrain from asking you to stop. But Allah does not refrain from the truth.' [Al-Ahzab 33:53]

When the 'Iddah of Zainab was over, Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to Zaid to make a mention to her about him. Zaid went on until he came to her and she was fermenting her flour. He (Zaid) said: As I saw her I felt in my heart an idea of her greatness so much so that I could not see towards her (simply for the fact) that Messenger of Allah ﷺ had made a mention of her. So I turned my back towards her. and I turned upon my heels, and said: Zainab, Messenger of Allah ﷺ has sent (me) with a message to you. She said: I do not do anything until I solicit the will of my Lord. So she stood at her place of worship and the (verse of) the Qur'an (pertaining to her marriage) were revealed, and Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to her without permission. He (the narrator) said: I saw that Messenger of Allah ﷺ served us bread and meat until it was broad day light and the people went away, but some persons who were busy in con- versation stayed on in the house after the meal. Messenger of Allah ﷺ also went out and I also followed him, and he began to visit the apartments of his wives greeting them (with the words): As-Salamu 'alaikum, and they would say: Messenger of Allah, how did you find your family (hadrat Zainab)? He (the narrator) stated: I do not know whether I had informed him that the people had gone out or he (the Holy Prophet) informed me (about that). He moved on until he entered the apartment, and I also went and wanted to enter (the apartment) along with him, but he threw a curtain between me and him, as (the verfes pertaining to seclusion) had been revealed, and people were instructed in what they had been instructed. Ibn Rafii had made this addition in his narration:" O you who believe, enter not the houses of the Prophet unless permission is given to you for a meal, not waiting for its cooking being finished..." to the words"... Allah forbears not from the truth."
