The people used to send presents to the Prophet ﷺ on the day of ʿAisha's turn. ʿAisha said, "My companions (i.e. the other wives of the Prophet) gathered in the house of Um Salama and said, "O Um Salama! By Allah, the people choose to send presents on the day of ʿAisha's turn and we too, love the good (i.e. presents etc.) as ʿAisha does. You should tell Messenger of Allah ﷺ to tell the people to send their presents to him wherever he may be, or wherever his turn may be." Um Salama said that to the Prophet and he turned away from her, and when the Prophet ﷺ returned to her (i.e. Um Salama), she repeated the same, and the Prophet ﷺ again turned away, and when she told him the same for the third time, the Prophet ﷺ said, "O Um Salama! Don't trouble me by harming ʿAisha, for by Allah, the Divine Inspiration never came to me while I was under the blanket of any woman amongst you except her."  

كَانَ النَّاسُ يَتَحَرَّوْنَ بِهَدَايَاهُمْ يَوْمَ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ فَاجْتَمَعَ صَوَاحِبِي إِلَى أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ فَقُلْنَ يَا أُمَّ سَلَمَةَ وَاللَّهِ إِنَّ النَّاسَ يَتَحَرَّوْنَ بِهَدَايَاهُمْ يَوْمَ عَائِشَةَ وَإِنَّا نُرِيدُ الْخَيْرَ كَمَا تُرِيدُهُ عَائِشَةُ فَمُرِي رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنْ يَأْمُرَ النَّاسَ أَنْ يُهْدُوا إِلَيْهِ حَيْثُ مَا كَانَ أَوْ حَيْثُ مَا دَارَ قَالَتْ فَذَكَرَتْ ذَلِكَ أُمُّ سَلَمَةَ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَتْ فَأَعْرَضَ عَنِّي فَلَمَّا عَادَ إِلَىَّ ذَكَرْتُ لَهُ ذَاكَ فَأَعْرَضَ عَنِّي فَلَمَّا كَانَ فِي الثَّالِثَةِ ذَكَرْتُ لَهُ فَقَالَ يَا أُمَّ سَلَمَةَ لاَ تُؤْذِينِي فِي عَائِشَةَ فَإِنَّهُ وَاللَّهِ مَا نَزَلَ عَلَىَّ الْوَحْىُ وَأَنَا فِي لِحَافِ امْرَأَةٍ مِنْكُنَّ غَيْرِهَا  

[Machine] Narrated Umm Salama, the wife of the Prophet: "My companions asked me to speak to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and ask him to command the people to give him gifts wherever he may be, as they used to compete in giving gifts on the day of Aisha. And we love good in the same way Aisha loves it." So I said to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , "Indeed, my companions have asked me to speak to you so that you may command the people to give you gifts wherever you may be, as they compete in giving gifts on the day of Aisha. And we love good in the same way Aisha loves it." The Prophet ﷺ remained silent and did not respond to me. Then my companions came to me and I informed them that he did not speak to me. They said, "Do not worry, and do not mention this the next time you see him." Umm Salama said, "So I stayed and spoke to him again, saying, 'Indeed, my companions have commanded me to speak to you so that you may command the people to give you gifts wherever you may be.' He said to me something similar to that two or three times. Upon this, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'O Umm Salama, do not hurt me regarding Aisha, for by Allah, revelation has not been sent down to me while I am in the house of any one of my wives besides Aisha.' So I said, 'I seek refuge in Allah that I should ever assert what I do not know.'  

عَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَتْ كَلَّمَنِي صَوَاحِبِي أَنْ أُكَلِّمَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَنْ يَأْمُرَ النَّاسَ فَيُهْدُونَ لَهُ حَيْثُ كَانَ فَإِنَّهُمْ يَتَحَرَّوْنَ بِهَدِيَّتِهِ يَوْمَ عَائِشَةَ وَإِنَّا نُحِبُّ الْخَيْرَ كَمَا تُحِبُّهُ عَائِشَةُ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ صَوَاحِبِي كَلَّمْنَنِي أَنْ أُكَلِّمَكَ لِتَأْمُرَ النَّاسَ أَنْ يُهْدُوا لَكَ حَيْثُ كُنْتَ فَإِنَّ النَّاسَ يَتَحَرَّوْنَ بِهَدَايَاهُمْ يَوْمَ عَائِشَةَ وَإِنَّا نُحِبُّ الْخَيْرَ كَمَا تُحِبُّهُ عَائِشَةُ قَالَتْ فَسَكَتَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَلَمْ يُرَاجِعْنِي فَجَاءَنِي صَوَاحِبِي فَأَخْبَرْتُهُنَّ أَنَّهُ لَمْ يُكَلِّمْنِي فَقُلْنَ لَا تَدَعِيهِ وَمَا هَذَا حِينَ تَدَعِينَهُ قَالَتْ ثُمَّ دَارَ فَكَلَّمْتُهُ فَقُلْتُ إِنَّ صَوَاحِبِي قَدْ أَمَرْنَنِي أَنْ أُكَلِّمَكَ تَأْمُرُ النَّاسَ فَلْيُهْدُوا لَكَ حَيْثُ كُنْتَ فَقَالَتْ لَهُ مِثْلَ تِلْكَ الْمَقَالَةِ مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثًا كُلُّ ذَلِكَ يَسْكُتُ عَنْهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا أُمَّ سَلَمَةَ لَا تُؤْذِينِي فِي عَائِشَةَ فَإِنَّهُ وَاللهِ مَا نَزَلَ الْوَحْيُ عَلَيَّ وَأَنَا فِي بَيْتِ امْرَأَةٍ مِنْ نِسَائِي غَيْرَ عَائِشَةَ فَقُلْتُ أَعُوذُ بِاللهِ أَنْ أَسُوءَكَ فِي عَائِشَةَ  

[Machine] "To speak to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and ask him to command the people to give me their allegiance wherever he may be, for people seek his favor by giving him gifts on the day of Aisha. And indeed, we love goodness just as Aisha loves it." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ remained silent and did not respond to me. Then my companions came to me, and I told them that he did not speak to me. They replied, "By Allah, we will not leave him." So, I spoke to him again, saying the same words two or three times. Still, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ remained silent. Then he said, 'O Umm Salamah, do not harm me with regards to Aisha. By Allah, revelation has not come to me while I am in the house of any of my wives except Aisha.'" I said, "I seek refuge in Allah from harming you in relation to Aisha."  

أَنْ أُكَلِّمَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنْ يَأْمُرَ النَّاسَ فَيُهْدُوا لَهُ حَيْثُ كَانَ فَإِنَّ النَّاسَ يَتَحَرَّوْنَ بِهَدَايَاهُمْ يَوْمَ عَائِشَةَ وَإِنَّا نُحِبُّ الْخَيْرَ كَمَا تُحِبُّ عَائِشَةَ فَسَكَتَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَلَمْ يُرَاجِعْنِي فَجَاءَنِي صَوَاحِبِي فَأَخْبَرْتُهُنَّ أَنَّهُ لَمْ يُكَلِّمْنِي فَقُلْنَ وَاللَّهِ لَا نَدَعُهُ قَالَتْ فَكَلَّمْتُهُ مِثْلَ الْمَقَالَةِ الْأُولَى مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثًا كُلُّ ذَلِكَ يَسْكُتُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ قَالَ «يَا أُمَّ سَلَمَةَ لَا تُؤْذِينِي فِي عَائِشَةَ فَإِنِّي وَاللَّهِ مَا نَزَلَ الْوَحْيُ عَلَيَّ وَأَنَا فِي بَيْتِ امْرَأَةٍ مِنْ نِسَائِي غَيْرَ عَائِشَةَ» قَالَتْ فَقُلْتُ أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ أَنْ أَسُوءَكَ فِي عَائِشَةَ
