[Machine] That Uyaynah ibn Hisn entered upon the Prophet ﷺ while Aisha was with him. He said, "Who is this woman sitting next to you?" The Prophet ﷺ said, "Aisha." He said, "Shouldn't I send you someone better than her?" meaning his own wife. The Prophet ﷺ replied, "No." The Prophet ﷺ then said to him, "Go out and ask for permission." He said, "It is difficult for me to seek permission from someone who is less esteemed than me." Aisha, may Allah have mercy on her, said, "Who is this?" He said, "This is a foolish, imitator."
أَنَّ عُيَيْنَةَ بْنَ حِصْنٍ دَخَلَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَعِنْدَهُ عَائِشَةُ فَقَالَ مَنْ هَذِهِ الْجَالِسَةُ إِلَى جَانِبِكَ؟ قَالَ «عَائِشَةُ» قَالَ أفَلَا أَنْزَلُ لَكَ عَنْ خَيْرٍ مِنْهَا؟ يَعْنِي امْرَأَتَهُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «لَا» قَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «اخْرُجْ فَاسْتَأْذِنْ» قَالَ إِنَّهَا يَمِينٌ عَلَيَّ أَنْ لَا أَسْتَأْذِنَ عَلَى مُضَرِيٍّ فَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ رَحِمَهَا اللهُ مَنْ هَذَا قَالَ «هَذَا أَحْمَقُ مُتَّبَعٌ»
