Did Prophet PBUH Ever Intend To Divorce Sawda R.A?
There’s this hadith in Tirmidhi…
https://sunnah.com/tirmidhi:3040
Narrated Ibn ‘Abbas:
“Sawdah feared that the Prophet (ﷺ) was going to divorce her, so she said: ‘Do not divorce me, but keep me and give my day to ‘Aishah.’ So he (ﷺ) did so, and the following was revealed: Then there is no sin on them both if they make terms of peace between themselves, and making peace is better (4:128). So whatever they agree to make peace in something then it is permissible.” (Sahih)
…why did she fear divorce? Like what is going on, was the Prophet PBUH intending to divorce her at some point? This whole narration just seems sort of disturbing to me. Is there any context i am missing? Please help!
