She ('A'isha) said: If Muhammad were to conceal anything which was sent to him, he would have certainly concealed this verse:" And when thou saidst to him on whom Allah had conferred favour and thou too had conferred favour: Keep thy wife to thyself and fear Allah, and thou wast concealing in thy heart that which Allah was going to disclose, and thou wast fearing men while Allah has a better right that thou shouldst fear Him."  

مسلم:١٧٧bوَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ نَحْوَ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ عُلَيَّةَ وَزَادَ قَالَتْ

وَلَوْ كَانَ مُحَمَّدٌ ﷺ كَاتِمًا شَيْئًا مِمَّا أُنْزِلَ عَلَيْهِ لَكَتَمَ هَذِهِ الآيَةَ { وَإِذْ تَقُولُ لِلَّذِي أَنْعَمَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَأَنْعَمْتَ عَلَيْهِ أَمْسِكْ عَلَيْكَ زَوْجَكَ وَاتَّقِ اللَّهَ وَتُخْفِي فِي نَفْسِكَ مَا اللَّهُ مُبْدِيهِ وَتَخْشَى النَّاسَ وَاللَّهُ أَحَقُّ أَنْ تَخْشَاهُ}

quran:33:37

And ˹remember, O Muhammad˺, when you said to the one on whom Allah bestowed favor and you bestowed favor, "Keep your wife and fear Allah," while you concealed within yourself that which Allah is to disclose. And you feared the people, while Allah has more right that you fear Him. So when Zayd had no longer any need for her, We married her to you in order that there not be upon the believers any discomfort concerning the wives of their adopted sons when they no longer have need of them. And ever is the command of Allah accomplished.  

And when (idh is dependent because of ˹an implied preceding˺ udhkur, ‘mention ˹when˺’) you said to him to whom God had shown favour, by ˹guiding him to˺ Islam, and to whom you ˹too˺ had shown favour: by manumitting him — this was Zayd b. Hāritha, who had been a prisoner of war before ˹the coming of˺ Islam (in the period of al-jāhiliyya). The Messenger of God (s) purchased him before his call to prophethood, and then manumitted him and adopted him as his son — ‘Retain your wife for yourself and fear God’, before divorcing her. But you had hidden in your heart what God was to disclose, ˹what˺ He was to manifest of your love for her and of ˹the fact˺ that should Zayd part with her you would marry her, and you feared people, would say, ‘He has married his son’s wife!’, though God is worthier that you should fear Him, in all things, so take her in marriage and do not be concerned with what people say. Zayd subsequently divorced her and her ˹obligatory˺ waiting period was completed. God, exalted be He, says: So when Zayd had fulfilled whatever need he had of her, We joined her in marriage to you — the Prophet consummated his marriage with her without ˹the customary˺ permission ˹from her legal guardian˺ and gratified the Muslims with ˹a feast of˺ bread and meat — so that there may not be any restriction for the believers in respect of the wives of their adopted sons, when the latter have fulfilled whatever wish they have of them. And God’s commandment, that which He has decreed, is bound to be realised.
القرآن:٣٣:٣٧

وَإِذْ تَقُولُ لِلَّذِي أَنْعَمَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَأَنْعَمْتَ عَلَيْهِ أَمْسِكْ عَلَيْكَ زَوْجَكَ وَاتَّقِ اللَّهَ وَتُخْفِي فِي نَفْسِكَ مَا اللَّهُ مُبْدِيهِ وَتَخْشَى النَّاسَ وَاللَّهُ أَحَقُّ أَنْ تَخْشَاهُ ۖ فَلَمَّا قَضَىٰ زَيْدٌ مِنْهَا وَطَرًا زَوَّجْنَاكَهَا لِكَيْ لَا يَكُونَ عَلَى الْمُؤْمِنِينَ حَرَجٌ فِي أَزْوَاجِ أَدْعِيَائِهِمْ إِذَا قَضَوْا مِنْهُنَّ وَطَرًا ۚ وَكَانَ أَمْرُ اللَّهِ مَفْعُولًا  

{وإذ} منصوب باذكر {تقول للذي أنعم الله عليه} بالإسلام {وأَنعمت عليه} بالإعتاق وهو زيد بن حارثة كان من سبي الجاهلية اشتراه رسول الله ﷺ قبل البعثة وأعتقه وتبناه {أمسك عليك زوجك واتق الله} في أمر طلاقها {وتخفي في نفسك ما الله مبديه} مظهره من محبتها وأن لو فارقها زيد تزوجتها {وتخشى الناس} أن يقولوا تزوج زوجة ابنه {والله أحق أن تخشاه} في كل شيء وتزوجها ولا عليك من قول الناس، ثم طلقها زيد وانقضت عدتها قال تعالى: {فلما قضى زيد منها وطرا} حاجة {زوجناكها} فدخل عليها النبي ﷺ بغير إذن وأشبع المسلمين خبزا ولحما {لكي لا يكون على المؤمنين حرج في أزواج أدعيائهم إذا قضوْا منهن وطرا وكان أمر الله} مقضيه {مفعولا}.

[Machine] "Aisha, if the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had concealed anything that Allah had revealed to him, he would have concealed this verse about himself: 'And [remember] when you said to the one on whom Allah bestowed favor and you bestowed favor, "Keep your wife and fear Allah", while you concealed within yourself that which Allah is to disclose. And you feared the people, while Allah has more right that you fear Him.' (Quran 33:37) until His saying, 'And [remember] when you said to the one on whom Allah bestowed favor and you bestowed favor, "Keep your wife and fear Allah", while you concealed within yourself that which Allah is to disclose. And you feared the people, while Allah has more right that you fear Him.' (Quran 33:37) to His saying, 'And the command of Allah is a destiny decreed.' (Quran 4:47)"
