Hadith #50398
وَعَن عَائِشَة قَالَت: كنت أغار من اللَّاتِي وَهَبْنَ أَنْفُسَهُنَّ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقُلْتُ: أَتَهَبُ الْمَرْأَةُ نَفْسَهَا؟ فَلَمَّا أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى: (تُرْجِي مَنْ تَشَاءُ مِنْهُنَّ وَتُؤْوِي إِلَيْكَ مَنْ تَشَاءُ وَمَنِ ابْتَغَيْتَ مِمَّنْ عَزَلْتَ فَلَا جنَاح عَلَيْك) قُلْتُ: مَا أَرَى رَبَّكَ إِلَّا يُسَارِعُ فِي هَوَاكَ. مُتَّفَقٌ عَلَيْهِ.
On the authority of Aisha, she said: I was jealous of those who gave themselves to the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, so I said: Should a woman give herself? So when God Almighty revealed: (You may put to yourself whomever you will among them and give shelter to yourself whomever you will, and whomsoever you may seek from among whom you have set aside - there is no blame on you) I said: I do not see. Your Lord does not hasten your desires. agreed.
