2136. It was reported from Mu'ādah, from 'Āishah, who said: "After the revelation of the Verse: 'You may distance those whom you like, and draw close to those whom you like,[1] the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ would ask permission from the one whose day it was.” Mu'ādḥah said: “I said: ‘What would you say to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ?’ ‘Aīshah responded: ‘I would say: “If the matter is in my hands, I will not choose anyone over myself.”’ (Šāḥih)
