Muaza bint Abdullah Adawiya reported,

Ayesha reported that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to ask permission on the day belonging to one of us wives, after this verse was revealed, "You may defer whom you will of them, and you may take to yourself whom you will. And whoever you desire of those you had set aside, there is no blame upon you" [Ahzab 33:51].The narrator asked her, "What would you say to him?"She replied, "I would say to him, 'If this matter is left to me, then I do not wish, Messenger of Allah, to prefer anyone over you.'"

عن معاذة

عن عائشة أن رسول الله ﷺ كان يستأذن في يوم المرأة منا، بعد أن أنزلت هذه الآية {ترجي من تشاء منهن وتؤوي إليك من تشاء ومن ابتغيت ممن عزلت فلا جناح عليك} فقلت لها: ما كنت تقولين؟ قالت: كنت أقول له: إن كان ذلك إلي فإني لا أريد يا رسول الله أوثر عليك أحدا.

His saying, "You may put aside whom you will of them and take to yourself whom you will, and whomever you desire of those whom you had set aside, there is no blame upon you. That is more suitable that they should be content and not grieve and should be satisfied with what you have given them, all of them. And Allah knows what is in your hearts, and Allah is ever Knowing"
