3383. It was narrated from Humaid that he heard Anas say: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ stayed with Safiyyah bint Huyayy bin Akhtab on the way (back from) Khaibar for three days when he married her, then she was among those who were commanded to observe Hijab.” (Sahih)
٣٣٨١ - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي أُوَيْسٍ ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ بِلَالٍ ، عَنْ يَحْيَى ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَنَسًا يَقُولُ: «إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَقَامَ عَلَى صَفِيَّةَ بِنْتِ حُيَيِّ بْنِ أَخْطَبَ بِطَرِيقِ خَيْبَرَ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ حِينَ عَرَّسَ بِهَا، ثُمَّ كَانَتْ فِيمَنْ ضُرِبَ عَلَيْهَا الْحِجَابُ».

1. 'Three days': This is because the one who already has a wife and marries thereupon another woman, he would stay with her particularly for a period of three days and nights. If she is a virgin, he would stay with her for a period of seven days. Then he would fix turns. Safiyyah was a widow. Allâh's Messenger ﷺ, therefore, stayed with her for three days. Thereupon, he fixed her turn. 2. 'She was among those': means she was not the Prophet's ﷺ slave woman. She was rather included among the wives of the Prophet ﷺ, because the Prophet ﷺ had emancipated her before marrying her. Hijâb was required for free women. This is why the words were made use of.
