✞ Trial (ن) :
Part of Al-Qurtubi’s explanation of 33:37 was WILD. “He was concealing his desire for Zayd to divorce her. This was what he was hiding in his heart, but he adhered to the obligation of enjoining good and forbidding evil. Muqatil said: ‘The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, married Zaynab bint Jahsh to Zayd, and she stayed with him for a while. Then one day, he, peace and blessings be upon him, came to Zayd looking for him. He saw Zaynab standing there; she was fair-skinned, beautiful, and well-proportioned, one of the most perfect women of Quraysh. He was captivated by her and said, ‘Glory be to God, the Turner of Hearts!’ Zaynab heard the glorification and mentioned it to Zayd. Zayd realized what he was saying and said, ‘O Messenger of God, permit me to divorce her, for she is arrogant, she is haughty towards me, and she hurts me with her tongue.’ He, peace and blessings be upon him, said, ‘Keep your wife and fear God.’ It was also said that God sent a wind that lifted the curtain while Zaynab was relaxing in her home. He saw Zaynab and was captivated by her. Zaynab then realized that she had captivated the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, when he came looking for Zayd. When Zayd came, she told him about it, and he decided to divorce her.” Ibn Abbas said, regarding the verse, “And you conceal within yourself…” Love for her. {And you fear the people} meaning you are ashamed before them. It was also said: You fear and dislike the blame of the Muslims if you were to say, "Divorce her," and they would say, "He ordered a man to divorce his wife and then married her after he divorced her."
