Sunan Ibn Majah - Book 9, Hadith 137 View on sunnah.com →
Urwah bin Zubair narrated that 'Aishah said: "I did not know until Zainab burst in on me without permission and she was angry. Then she said: 'O Messenger of Allah, is it enough for you that the young daughter of Abu Bakr waves her hands in front of you?' Then she turned to me, but I ignored her until the Prophet said: 'You should say something to defend yourself.' So I turned on her, (and replied to her) until I saw that her mouth had become dry, and she did not say anything back to me.
And I saw the Prophet with his face shining." (Hasan).
