came back and they had gone."
He said: "So, I mentioned that to Abū Ṭalḥah and he said, 'If it is as you say, something shall surely be revealed concerning this,' and the Verse of Hijāb was revealed. (Saḥīḥ)

Commentary
This bride was Zainab, the daughter of Jahsh. The people came to attend her wedding feast, but they remained sitting engaged in conversation after they had eaten. As the Prophet ﷺ had gone but they could not understand that they should have gone too; and finally they left because of the Prophet's coming and going again and again.
