[Machine] "When twenty-nine days had passed, the Messenger of Allah entered upon me and started with me. I said, 'O Messenger of Allah! You took an oath not to enter upon us for a month, but you entered on the twenty-ninth day.' He replied, 'The month is twenty-nine days.' Then he said, 'O Aisha! I have something on my mind for you, but I do not want to rush you until you consult with your parents.' She said, 'Then he recited the verse to me, "O Prophet! Say to your wives, 'If you desire the life of this world and its adornment, then come, I will provide for you and give you a gracious release. But if you desire Allah and His Messenger and the home of the Hereafter, then indeed, Allah has prepared for the doers of good among you a great reward.'" Aisha said, 'By Allah, my parents never stopped me from obeying the Messenger of Allah, so I said, 'Shall I consult my parents regarding this matter? I only desire Allah, His Messenger, and the home of the Hereafter.'"

(the wife of the Prophet) when Messenger of Allah ﷺ was ordered to give option to his wives, he started with me, saying, "I am going to mention to you something, but you shall not hasten (to give your reply) unless you consult your parents." The Prophet ﷺ knew that my parents would not order me to leave him. Then he said, "Allah says: 'O Prophet (Muhammad)! Say to your wives: If you desire the life of this world and its glitter........a great reward." (33.28-29) I said, "Then why I consult my parents? Verily, I seek Allah, His Apostle and the Home of the Hereafter." Then all the other wives of the Prophet ﷺ did the same as I did.

When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was commanded to give option to his wives, he started it from me saying: I am going to mention to you a matter which you should not (decide) in haste until you have consulted your parents. She said that he already knew that my parents would never allow me to seek separation from him She said: Then he said: Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, said: Prophet, say to thy wives: If you desire this world's life and its adornment, then come, I will give you a provision and allow you to depart a goodly departing; and if you desire Allah and His Messenger and the abode of the Hereafter, then Allah has prepared for the doers of good among you a great reward She is reported to have said: About what should I consult my parents, for I desire Allah and His Messenger and the abode of the Hereafter? She ('A'isha) said: Then all the wives of Messenger of Allah ﷺ did as I had done.

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to me and said, "I am going to propose something to you, but you shouldn't rush it. Consult your parents first." I asked him, "What is this matter?" He recited to me the verse from Surah Al-Ahzab: "O Prophet, tell your wives: If you desire the life of this world and its adornment, then come, I will provide for you and release you in a gracious manner. But if you desire Allah and His Messenger and the home of the Hereafter, then indeed, Allah has prepared for the doers of good among you a great reward." Aisha said, "I asked him if that meant I should consult my parents. He said, 'No, I mean that you should desire Allah, His Messenger, and the home of the Hereafter.' The Prophet ﷺ was delighted with my response and said, 'I will present to your co-wives what I have presented to you.' I told him not to inform them about my choice, but he didn't do so. He would tell them the same thing he told me and then say, 'Aisha has chosen Allah, His Messenger, and the home of the Hereafter.' Aisha said, 'The Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave us the choice, and we never saw it as divorce.'"

"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."'

[Machine] "When twenty-nine nights had passed, the Prophet ﷺ entered upon me. I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, you took an oath that you would not enter upon us for a month, and it has only been twenty-nine nights. Did you count them?' He said, 'The month is twenty-nine days.' Then he said, 'O Aisha, I have something to discuss with you, so don't rush until you consult with your parents.' Then he recited to me, 'O Prophet, say to your wives...' until he reached 'a great reward.' Aisha said, 'He knew that my parents had not instructed me to separate from him.' So I said, 'Should I ask my parents about this matter?' Because I desire Allah, His Messenger, and the Hereafter."

[Machine] The Prophet of Allah ﷺ came to me and said, "I will present a matter to you, and it is not necessary for you to rush until you consult your parents." So, I asked, "What is this matter?" She recited the verse to me, "O Prophet, say to your wives, 'If you should desire the worldly life and its adornment, then come, I will provide for you and give you a gracious release. But if you should desire Allah and His Messenger and the home of the Hereafter - then indeed, Allah has prepared for the doers of good among you a great reward.'" (Quran 33:29) Then I asked, "Why do you command me to consult my parents?" Instead, I want Allah and His Messenger and the Hereafter. So the Prophet ﷺ was pleased with this and said, "I will present to your companions what I presented to you." So he would say to them what he said to Aisha, and then he would say, "Aisha has chosen Allah and His Messenger and the Hereafter." Aisha said, "Indeed, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave us a choice, but we did not see that as a divorce."

When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was commanded to give option to his wives, he started it from me saying: I am going to mention to you a matter which you should not (decide) in haste until you have consulted your parents. She said that he already knew that my parents would never allow me to seek separation from him She said: Then he said: Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, said: Prophet, say to thy wives: If you desire this world's life and its adornment, then come, I will give you a provision and allow you to depart a goodly departing; and if you desire Allah and His Messenger and the abode of the Hereafter, then Allah has prepared for the doers of good among you a great reward She is reported to have said: About what should I consult my parents, for I desire Allah and His Messenger and the abode of the Hereafter? She ('A'isha) said: Then all the wives of Messenger of Allah ﷺ did as I had done. (Using translation from Muslim 1475)
