Volume 7, Book 62, Number 95:
Narrated Anas bin Malik:
I was ten years old when Allah's Apostle arrived at Medina. My mother and aunts used to urge me to serve the Prophet regularly, and I served him for ten years. When the Prophet died I was twenty years old, and I knew about the order of Al-Hijab (veiling of ladies) more than any other person when it was revealed. It was revealed for the first time when Allah's Apostle had consummated his marriage with Zainab bint Jahsh. When the day dawned, the Prophet was a bridegroom and he invited the people to a banquet, so they came, ate, and then all left except a few who remained with the Prophet for a long time. The Prophet got up and went out, and I too went out with him so that those people might leave too. The Prophet proceeded and so did I, till he came to the threshold of 'Aisha's dwelling place. Then thinking that these people have left by then, he returned and so did I along with him till he entered upon Zainab

(cont.) and behold, they were still sitting and had not gone. So the Prophet again went away and I went away along with him. When we reached the threshold of 'Aisha's dwelling place, he thought that they had left, and so he returned and I too, returned along with him and found those people had left. Then the Prophet drew a curtain between me and him, and the Verses of Al-Hijab were revealed.

It's the curtain thing, aziz. Definitely peculiar.

Thanks for your interest in Hadith.
what exactly you mean "improper"?
The Hadith reflects (1)nobel behaviour of prophet with the guests at his home.(2)Indication of the occasion (Time) of The Order of Al-Hijab.
It was an occasion of marriage, normally people leave after banquet,but they stayed longer,there was no serious discussions, but prophet did not ask them to leave his home so that he could rest. He, himself, went out and came twice to remind them that now they should leave him in privacy.
Anas bin Malik is confirming the occasion and time of revelation.
Hope this will serve the purpose.

So they returned to where she could take notes sitting on the other side of a curtain from him after the guests had left on their own, instead of being a bad host and kicking them out. What is your point in this.
nowhere in this does it talk about sex, it is talking about how the verses about the requirement for the veil came to be recorded. Get your minds out of the gutter you people!

The last of prophets in the order of time was Malachias.
Latin Vulgate
Douay-Rheims Bible
Second Epistle Of Saint Peter
Chapter 2
1 But there were also false prophets among the people, even as there shall be among you lying teachers, who shall bring in sects of perdition, and deny the Lord who bought them: bringing upon themselves swift destruction. 2 And many shall follow their riotousnesses, through whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. 3 And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you. Whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their perdition slumbereth not. 4 For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but delivered them, drawn down by infernal ropes to the lower hell, unto torments, to be reserved unto judgment
11 Whereas angels who are greater in strength and power, bring not against themselves a railing judgment. 12 But these men, as irrational beasts, naturally tending to the snare and to destruction, blaspheming those things which they know not, shall perish in their corruption, 13 Receiving the reward of their injustice, counting for a pleasure the delights of a day: stains and spots, sporting themselves to excess, rioting in their feasts with you: 14 Having eyes full of adultery and of sin that ceaseth not: alluring unstable souls, having their heart exercised with covetousness, children of malediction

How about asking yourself this. Is it proper to mass murder 6 million peeps? or 70 000 peeps in Jerusalem? How drastic some teachings could give its people.

Is your problem about how Muhammad, at age 54, had a 9 year old slave? Then I would agree.
