But you did hide in yourself (i.e., what Allah has already made known to you that He will give her to you in marriage) that which Allah will make manifest, you did fear people (i.e., Muḥammad pbuh married the divorced wife of his manumitted slave) whereas Allah had a better right that you should fear Him..."

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحِيمِ، حَدَّثَنَا مُعَلَّى بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا ثَابِتٌ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ أَنَّ هَذِهِ، الآيَةَ ‏{‏وَتُخْفِي فِي نَفْسِكَ مَا اللَّهُ مُبْدِيهِ‏}‏ نَزَلَتْ فِي شَأْنِ زَيْنَبَ ابْنَةِ جَحْشٍ وَزَيْدِ بْنِ حَارِثَةَ‏.‏
