Mufti Sahib

I heard the following story from a person. But I would like to know in detail if possible
.
Zubeida,wife of Caliph Harun ar Rashid was forgiven as she put a cloth on her head upon hearing the azaan whilst she was in the palace. Somebody saw her in a dream after her death that she was forgiven by Allah but initially she thought she was forgiven because of her great philanthropic construction of road works from Iraq and Makka. but it was not the cause of her forgiveness as she spent money from the baitul maal. Would you be able to narrate whole story please?

Zubeida,wife of Caliph Harun ar Rashid was forgiven as she a put cloth on her head upon hearing the azaan whilst she was in the palace...' This part is not correct.

Actually, it was a hot day whilst she was in her garden and she told her female attendant to bring a glass of water. When it was brought the Adhaan commenced. She paused, listened to the Adhaan, then responded to it. Thereafter she drank the glass of water. The story after that about her forgiveness is correct.
