This interpretation is supported by the next sentence of the same verse, though the subject is different: "And when you ask the women (i.e. the Prophet's wives) for a thing, ask them from behind a curtain!56 That is purer for their hearts and yours.”

A story which appears in the Hadith compilations and is attributed to A'esha explains the sentence as follows: "The Prophet and I were eating a meal from a dish when Omar passed by. The Prophet invited him to join in the meal. While we were eating, Omar's finger touched my finger. Omar said, 'If only my advice had been heeded! No eye would then have seen you.' After that, the verse of the curtain was sent down.”
