raisin). Have you eaten Maghafir?” When he entered upon one of us, she said that to him. He replied
(to her), “No, but I have drunk honey in the house of Zainab bint Jahsh, and I will never drink it
again.” Then the following verse was revealed: ‘O Prophet ! Why do you ban (for you) that which Al –
