evil affair, for he used to raise his voice above the voice of the Prophet and so all his good deeds had
been annulled, and he considered himself as one of the people of the Fire. Then the man returned to
the Prophet and told him that Thabit had said, so-and-so. (Musa bin Anas) said: The man returned to
Thabit with great glad tidings. The Prophet said to the man. “Go back to him and say to him: “You are

Narrated Anas bin Malik:
I of all the people know best this verse of Al-Hijab. When Allah’s Apostle married Zainab bint Jah –
sh she was with him in the house and he prepared a meal and invited the people (to it). They sat
down (after finishing their meal) and started chatting. So the Prophet went out and then returned
several times while they were still sitting and talking. So Allah revealed the Verse:
‘O you who believe! Enter not the Prophet’s houses until leave is given to you for a meal, (and
then) not (so early as) to wait for its preparation …..ask them from behind a screen.’ (33.53) So the
screen was set up and the people went away.

Narrated Anas bin Malik:
When Allah’s Apostle married Zainab bint Jahsh, he invited the people to a meal. They took the
meal and remained sitting and talking. Then the Prophet (showed them) as if he is ready to get up,
yet they did not get up. When he noticed that (there was no response to his movement), he got up,
and the others too, got up except three persons who kept on sitting. The Prophet came back in order
to enter his house, but he went away again. Then they left, whereupon I set out and went to the
Prophet to tell him that they had departed, so he came and entered his house. I wanted to enter along
with him, but he put a screen between me and him. Then Allah revealed:
‘O you who believe! Do not enter the houses of the Prophet…’ (33.53)
