I know (about) the Hijab (the order of veiling of women) more than anybody else. Ubai bin Ka`b used

Medina. After the sun had risen high in the sky, the Prophet (ﷺ) invited the people to a meal. Allah's
Apostle remained sitting and some people remained sitting with him after the other guests had left.
Then Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) got up and went away, and I too, followed him till he reached the door of
`Aisha's room. Then he thought that the people must have left the place by then, so he returned and I
also returned with him. Behold, the people were still sitting at their places. So he went back again for
the second time, and I went along with him too. When we reached the door of `Aisha's room, he
returned and I also returned with him to see that the people had left. Thereupon the Prophet (ﷺ) hung a
curtain between me and him and the Verse regarding the order for (veiling of women) Hijab was
revealed.
