[3526] 111 - (1433) It was narrated that 'Aishah said: "The wife of Rifâ'ah came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: 'I was married to Rifâ'ah, then he divorced me and made the divorce irrevocable. Then I married 'Abdur-Rahmân bin Az-Zubair, and what he has is like the edge of a garment.' The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ smiled and said: 'Do you want to go back to Rifâ'ah? No, not until you taste his ('Abdur-Rahmân's) sweetness and he tastes your sweetness.'" She said: "And Abû Bakr was with him, and Khâlid was at the door, waiting to be given permission to enter. He called out: 'O Abû Bakr, do you not hear what this woman dares to say in the presence of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ?"

111 - (1433) حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَعَمْرٌو النَّاقِدُ، وَاللَّفْظُ لِعَمْرٍو، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ: جَاءَتِ امْرَأَةُ رِفَاعَةَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَتْ: كُنْتُ عِنْدَ رِفَاعَةَ، فَطَلَّقَنِي، فَبَتَّ طَلَاقِي، فَتَزَوَّجْتُ عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنَ الزَّبِيرِ، وَإِنَّ مَا مَعَهُ مِثْلُ هُدْبَةِ الثَّوْبِ، فَتَبَسَّمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: «أَتُرِيدِينَ أَنْ تَرْجِعِي إِلَى رِفَاعَةَ؟ لَا، حَتَّى تَذُوقِي عُسَيْلَتَهُ، وَيَذُوقَ عُسَيْلَتَكِ»، قَالَتْ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ عِنْدَهُ وَخَالِدٌ بِالْبَابِ يَنْتَظِرُ أَنْ يُؤْذَنَ لَهُ، فَنَادَى: يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ، أَلَا تَسْمَعُ هَذِهِ مَا تَجْهَرُ بِهِ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ؟
