كُلْثُومٌ الْخُزَاعِيُّ، عَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ

[Machine] She used to comb the hair of the Messenger of Allah (saw). Then Zainab, the wife of Abdullah ibn Mas'ud, came and she started talking to me and I started talking to her. I raised my gaze towards her so the Messenger of Allah (saw) said, "Lower your gaze, for you are not allowed to talk to her while looking at her." Zainab said, "I complained about the tightness of our living space." So the Messenger of Allah (saw) said, "This is how the wife of Uthman ibn Maz'un did. She could not bear staying there until it fell on top of her head. So the Messenger of Allah (saw) said, "Such is the case of anyone who chooses a house in Madinah from among the Muhajirat (emigrant women). She has the right to inherit her portion from the house of Abdullah and she secures her own house in Madinah."
