Regarding the Verse:--"They ask your instruction concerning the women. Say: Allah instructs you about them and yet whom you desire to marry." (4.127) (has been revealed regarding the case of) a man who has an orphan girl, and he is her guardian and her heir. The girl shares with him all his property, even a date-palm (garden), but he dislikes to marry her and dislikes to give her in marriage to somebody else who would share with him the property she is sharing with him, and for this reason that guardian prevents that orphan girl from marrying. So, this Verse was revealed: (And Allah's statement:) "If a woman fears cruelty or desertion on her husband's part." (4.128)  

عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ؓ {وَيَسْتَفْتُونَكَ فِي النِّسَاءِ قُلِ اللَّهُ يُفْتِيكُمْ فِيهِنَّ} إِلَى قَوْلِهِ {وَتَرْغَبُونَ أَنْ تَنْكِحُوهُنَّ} قَالَتْ هُوَ الرَّجُلُ تَكُونُ عِنْدَهُ الْيَتِيمَةُ هُوَ وَلِيُّهَا وَوَارِثُهَا فَأَشْرَكَتْهُ فِي مَالِهِ حَتَّى فِي الْعِذْقِ فَيَرْغَبُ أَنْ يَنْكِحَهَا وَيَكْرَهُ أَنْ يُزَوِّجَهَا رَجُلاً فَيَشْرَكُهُ فِي مَالِهِ بِمَا شَرِكَتْهُ فَيَعْضُلَهَا فَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الآيَةُ  

(as regards the Verse): 'And about what is recited unto you in the Book, concerning orphan girls to whom you give not the prescribed portions and yet, whom you desire to marry.' (4.127) This Verse is about the female orphan who is under the guardianship of a man with whom she shares her property and he has more right over her (than anybody else) but does not like to marry her, so he prevents her, from marrying somebody else, lest he should share the property with him.  

عَنْ عَائِشَةَ {وَمَا يُتْلَى عَلَيْكُمْ فِي الْكِتَابِ فِي يَتَامَى النِّسَاءِ اللاَّتِي لاَ تُؤْتُونَهُنَّ مَا كُتِبَ لَهُنَّ وَتَرْغَبُونَ أَنْ تَنْكِحُوهُنَّ} قَالَتْ هَذَا فِي الْيَتِيمَةِ الَّتِي تَكُونُ عِنْدَ الرَّجُلِ لَعَلَّهَا أَنْ تَكُونَ شَرِيكَتَهُ فِي مَالِهِ وَهْوَ أَوْلَى بِهَا فَيَرْغَبُ أَنْ يَنْكِحَهَا فَيَعْضُلَهَا لِمَالِهَا وَلاَ يُنْكِحَهَا غَيْرَهُ كَرَاهِيَةَ أَنْ يَشْرَكَهُ أَحَدٌ فِي مَالِهَا  

(regarding His Statement): 'They ask your instruction concerning the women. Say: Allah instructs you about them ...' (4.127) It is about the female orphan who is under the guardianship of a man with whom she shares her property and he does not want to marry her and dislikes that someone else should marry her, lest he should share the property with him, so he prevents her from marrying. So Allah forbade such a guardian to do so (i.e. to prevent her from marrying).  

عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ؓ فِي قَوْلِهِ {وَيَسْتَفْتُونَكَ فِي النِّسَاءِ قُلِ اللَّهُ يُفْتِيكُمْ فِيهِنَّ} إِلَى آخِرِ الآيَةِ قَالَتْ هِيَ الْيَتِيمَةُ تَكُونُ فِي حَجْرِ الرَّجُلِ قَدْ شَرِكَتْهُ فِي مَالِهِ فَيَرْغَبُ عَنْهَا أَنْ يَتَزَوَّجَهَا وَيَكْرَهُ أَنْ يُزَوِّجَهَا غَيْرَهُ فَيَدْخُلَ عَلَيْهِ فِي مَالِهِ فَيَحْبِسُهَا فَنَهَاهُمُ اللَّهُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ  

[Machine] About Aisha, in his saying, "And they ask you about women, say: Allah will instruct you about them, and [also] what is recited to you in the Book concerning the orphan girls to whom you are not giving what is ordained for them" [Quran 4:127]. She said, it was revealed about the orphan girl who is with a man, maybe she is his partner in his wealth, and he is her guardian, so he desires to marry her but dislikes marrying her to another man who will share his wealth with her, which she partnered with him. So Allah revealed, "And they ask you about women" [Quran 4:127].  

عَنْ عَائِشَةَ فِي قَوْلِهِ {وَيَسْتَفْتُونَكَ فِي النِّسَاءِ قُلِ اللهُ يُفْتِيكُمْ فِيهِنَّ وَمَا يُتْلَى عَلَيْكُمْ فِي الْكِتَابِ فِي يَتَامَى النِّسَاءِ اللَّاتِي لَا تُؤْتُونَهُنَّ} [النساء 127] قَالَتْ أُنْزِلَتْ فِي الْيَتِيمَةِ تَكُونُ عِنْدَ الرَّجُلِ لَعَلَّهَا أَنْ تَكُونَ قَدْ شَرِكَتْهُ فِي مَالِهِ وَهُوَ وَلِيُّهَا فَيَرْغَبُ أَنْ يَنْكِحَهَا وَيَكْرَهُ أَنْ يُزَوِّجَهَا رَجُلًا فَيَشْرَكُهُ فِي مَالِهِ بِمَا شَرِكَتْهُ فَيَعْضُلُهَا فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ جَلَّ وَعَزَّ {وَيَسْتَفْتُونَكَ فِي النِّسَاءِ} [النساء 127]
