'A'isha said that Fatima was in a lonely place and fear was entertained regarding the district where she was, so the Prophet gave her permission, i.e., to remove. In a version she asked what was the matter with Fatima and whether she did not fear God, i.e., with reference to her saying that she had no place to live and no maintenance. Bukhari transmitted it.
Reported by Al-Bukhari (No. 5323) and Abu Dawud (No. 2292). Cited in Mishkat al-Masabih (No. 3325).
