[Machine] When the verse of al-Khiyar (choice) was revealed, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ called me and said, "O Aisha, I want to inform you about something, so do not make any decision about it without consulting your parents." I asked him what it was and he called me and recited this verse to me: "O Prophet, say to your wives..." (Surah Al-Ahzab, 33:28) till the end of the verse. I said, "I choose Allah and His Messenger." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was delighted with my response.  

أحمد:٢٥١٩٣حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ

لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ آيَةُ الْخِيَارِ دَعَانِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا عَائِشَةُ إِنِّي أُرِيدُ أَنْ أَذْكُرَ لَكِ أَمْرًا فَلَا تَقْضِينَ فِيهِ شَيْئًا دُونَ أَبَوَيْكِ فَقَالَتْ مَا هُوَ؟ قَالَتْ فَدَعَانِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَرَأَ عَلَيَّ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ {يَا أَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ قُلْ لِأَزْوَاجِكَ} [الأحزاب 28] {إِنْ كُنْتُنَّ تُرِدْنَ اللهَ وَرَسُولَهُ وَالدَّارَ الْآخِرَةَ} [الأحزاب 29] الْآيَةَ كُلَّهَا قَالَتْ فَقُلْتُ قَدْ اخْتَرْتُ اللهَ وَرَسُولَهُ قَالَتْ فَفَرِحَ لِذَلِكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ

[Machine] When the verse of khayr (goodness) was revealed, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ called me and said, "O Aisha, I want to tell you something, so do not decide anything about it without consulting your parents." She asked, "What is it?" He then recited to me this verse, "O Prophet, say to your wives.... if you desire Allah and His Messenger and the home of the Hereafter" (Quran, Surah Al-Ahzab, 33:28-29). She replied, "I have chosen Allah and His Messenger." Upon hearing this, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was pleased.

"When the following was revealed: 'But if you desire Allah and His Messenger, ﷺ the Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered upon me and said: 'O Aishah I want to say something to you, and you do not have to hasten (in making a decision) until you have consulted your parents."' She said: "He knew, by Allah, that my parents would never tell me to leave him." She said: "Then he recited to me: ' O Prophet (Muhammad)! Say to your wives: " If you desire the life of this world, and its glitter.'" I said: 'Do I need to consult my parents about this? I choose Allah and His Messenger."' (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 2053)
