الله عليه وسلم ونحن أريد أن أخبر أسفل مرحباً للأسفل who is virtually attending these classes which will be once a week for nine weeks إن شاء الله قبل أن نذهب any further I would want everyone just to whenever you hear the name of سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم so whenever you hear the name of محمد or سيدنا محمد just to follow it immediately with صلى الله عليه وسلم in these classes we are inshallah going to traverse the backgrounds of the wives of the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم their marvels their etiquette and manners their utter devotion to الله سبحانه وتعالى and his messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم and inshallah I will be depending on several resources resources but one of them is the محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم of the sources of the prophetic narrative and that was written by سميرا زايت may Allah have mercy upon her she died recently and this book actually was translated it was published I think in 2018 and I was the project manager for finishing for for getting this book translated actually and it took us about 10 years to finish this book so الحمد لله I will be depending on this resource and of course as I mentioned other many other resources so in these this series inshallah and lightness of the minds brightness of the souls and shines of the hearts so when we hear about the wives of Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم we will learn a lot so if a muslim woman one if if a muslim woman follows the footsteps of the mothers of the believers then she can contribute vastly to to the islamic work and to the islamic world so each of us girls moms daughters wives teachers with with all female roles we all can learn a lot from the mothers the mothers of the believers men can follow their footsteps too so everyone can learn a lot to live successfully in this life and be winners in the life after and الله سبحانه وتعالى mentioned the wives of Sayyidina Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم in the Holy Quran when he said يا نساء النبي لست لنك أحد من النساء you are not like oh woman of Muhammad you are not like any woman who lived who are living or who will live in this life you woman the wives of the Prophet you are unique you completely submit to الله سبحانه وتعالى and as a woman ask yourself how do i successfully contribute to the to to my family and to my community if you want to know how to do this successfully then look at the lives of the mothers of the believers and learn from them so we have to know we have to learn about them we have to know what they did we have to know how they contribute how we have to know their contributions how they contributed what they did so we can follow them and consider them as our models and in شاء الله today we will be starting with the first wife of Sayyidina Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم خديجة بنتوخ ويلد if we look at the lineage of Sayyida خديجة and the lineage of Sayyidina Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم we find that they meet they both meet in لؤي so خديجة رضي الله عنها was related to Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم so who is who is خديجة رضي الله عنها who is this woman who is this amazing mother of believers she's the master of the noble woman of قريش this was one of her titles سيدة نساء قريش another title was the pure woman another title was the noble woman or the complete woman so how how nice it feels it feels so good to talk about Sayyida خديجة رضي الله عنها so she was the woman who was chosen out of the woman in the world just to be next to Sayyida محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم she was the first woman the first person actually men and women she was the first one to believe in Sayyida محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم to support him and Allah سبحانه وتعالى has chosen her to be the wife of Sayyida محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم and to be a mother for all the Muslim men and women she was the wife who gave birth to his six children so she gave birth to a father and a father the sons of Sayyida محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم who they died early at a very young age she was the mother of زيناب رقية and Fatima رضي الله عنه جميعا so who is this amazing woman to raise such amazing children so this is a very important lesson that the role of a great mom is to raise great children so Sayyida خديجة رضي الله عنها one day she was sitting with a group of the noble woman of Quraysh they were sitting close to the Kaaba and they were chit chatting and suddenly a man came and he stopped at that gathering and he said to them يعني ساءت اينا انه سيكون في بلد كن نبي يقال له احمد يبعث برسالة الله فأي ممرأة استطاعت ان تكون له زوجا فالتفعل so he said to them oh woman of Tayma there would be a prophet in your in your city in your country his name will be Ahmed and he will be a message will be revealed to him so any one of you if if she can be a wife his wife then do it so the woman started to laugh and started to mark that man and some one of them just took a small a pebble and she threw him and and except for one woman out of all these ladies she she she was just listening wisely and calmly and she was thinking about the words of that man and this was the wise lady the wise noble lady the pure woman so was of a very noble family and they were very rich so wealthy and she was known in Makkah to be a wise generous noble woman so she got married to someone whose name is abu hala and she lived with him for a short time الله سبحانه وتعالى gave gave both of them a son whose name was him and then when abu hala died she married and she got another child but again she did not want to get married after that so she she just wanted to raise her children to be a good mom and of course she was a very successful businesswoman so she wanted to take care of her family and of her business so خديجة رضي الله وانه she used to hire men to to be in charge of her caravan setting off to sham and to Yemen trading for her and sometimes the those people were not as honest as they should be so she was looking for someone who was trustworthy and she heard about محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم who was known to be الأمين the trustworthy the truthful so she she she called him she wanted to work with him she wanted to hire him and they agreed and she sent her one of her slaves whose name was ميسرة to accompany سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم so you would make sure that he is doing a good job that everything is going well so ميسرة accompanied سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم to this journey setting off to sham and ميسرة ميسرة so a lot of things that he never saw with any other person who would go and trade for خديجة so he was impressed he was impressed with how he does business he was impressed with his manners with his character and he was so impressed with how بلست سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم was and one time they were they they got tired and they wanted to rest so سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم sat under the shade of tree there was a monk in that area he looked at سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم with a very strong strange look and he said to ميسرة who is this person and ميسرة told him he is immersion he is from Quraysh and we he is taking care of trade for someone and the monk said none rests here under the shade of the street except for the prophet so ميسرة was impressed and along the way ميسرة also noticed that there is a cloud shading prophet محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم from the heat of the sun and by the end of the journey ميسرة fell in love with سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم he began to love him and when they got back to مكة he he said to him go quickly go until خديجة of what happened so they came back and سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم came back with abundant profit she never had such a profit and she gave سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم دول of what she used to give other people and she gave him دول of what they both agreed on and she was she had a great interest to listen to ميسرة talking about the character of سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم and about the blessings that he has seen so if we stop here for a second we notice several points if you have a business you need to have trustworthy people to work with you we need people who deserve your trust so that they fulfill the emanah so what happened خديجة رضي الله عنها was able to choose and to decide to send سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم with this to trade for her so she had an insight a bright insight to to know that yes he is the one who people are talking about whom people are talking about and he is trustworthy really that was the outcome she came with immediately when she saw him and she sent someone who is able to to get to who is intelligent ميسرة was the first person to notice the miracles of سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم he was so surprised to see that cloud shading سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم along the way so خديجة رضي الله عنها realized that محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم is not the same as as any other person so she was thinking and she remembered of course that man who told them there will be a prophet so try to be a wife to that prophet but how can she do that she went to her friend نفيسا and she told her the whole story and she told her that she showed her that she is interested in محمد رضي الله عنه صلى الله عليه وسلم so the good صحبة what did the visa do رضي الله عنه she she went directly to سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم she talked to him and she said what's stopping you from getting married and سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم said i cannot afford it so there is no way i can be financially able to support her and she said what about if you are not asked to support or to give anything and he said he said say the محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم said then how how can that be she said if you are not asked for anything and if you are if the wife is beautiful wealthy honor noble and would you accept and he said محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم said who is she and she said خديجة so سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم of course told her that i have to talk to my uncle's but he showed acceptance and the blessed marriage was completed by the attendance of Abu Talib حمزة والعباس وورقب نونوفل and the new chapter of life just started خديجة رضي الله عنها was 40 years old and سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم was 25 years old so الله سبحانه وتعالى gave them the happiest gave them the best life as a husband and a wife خديجة رضي الله عنها sacrificed everything and she supported سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم with everything everything that she she can support him with and of course we know that in the household where all the children were born زيدو بحارثة was the servant he was living in the house we know that عليه أبو أبي طالب سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم brought him from his uncle because his uncle was so poor so he brought him with جعفر just to live with سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم and this blessed family so سبحان الله خديجة رضي الله عنها used to be the best wife she would she would support her husband with everything she would help him she she would take care of the house of the children of everything she was so smart so سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم was performed by her in the best way later on سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم used to love seclusion and he used to go to to the cave of غار حراق and to stay days and sometimes a month there and she would cook for him bring him food or send food with with with someone to him she was caring i came wife a loving wife until one day سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم was revealed to when سيدنا جبريل told him and we all know the story and what happened to سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم and how how scared he was and he came back rushing to his wife so he came to خديجة رضي الله عنها and said cover me cover me so and they covered him until his fear was over and after that he told he told خديجة رضي الله عنها everything he told her everything that has happened to him and he said i fear that something may may may happen to me and what was her answer she comforted him she she she made him feel that be strong you are truthful she said to him كلا والله ما يخزيك الله أبدا إنك لتصلوا الرحيم وتحملوا الكل وتكسيبوا المعدوم وتقرد بيف وتعينوا على نوائب الحق so she said never by Allah so when he said to her i i fear that something may happen to me she said no never by Allah Allah will never disgrace you you keep good relations with your kids you you help the poor you you serve your guests generously you assist everyone who who who is in calamity you are a good person so she called him and she assured him that Allah would never let him down then this wife wise wife she went she she took say the Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم and she went to her كزن ورقب نونوفل who during the islamic period became christian pre islamic sorry pre islamic period he became a christian and he used to be very wise very intelligent uh he he knew Hebrew he knew arabic he was he was very smart but at that time he was an old man and he had lost his eyesight so hadija said to ورق listen to the story of of your nephew of my husband and when she did the Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم described what what what what he what he had seen ورق said this is the same one who keeps the secret and he means angel the jibreel رضي الله وان سيد the jibreel so this is the same one whom Allah صبحانه و تعالى had sent to moses I wish I were young and I could live up to the time when your people will kick you out will turn you out and the messengers الله عليه وسلم said will they drive me out and ورق I applied affirmatively he said any man who came with something similar to what you have brought was treated with with hostility and if I should remain alive till the day when when you will be when you will be turned out then I would support you strongly but ورق died a few a few days after سبحان الله سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم knew that it will be a challenge he knew that this would be a hard mission but who was with him who was supporting him his wife his wife was supporting him رضي الله و عنها سيد خديجر رضي الله و عنها so this was what he did when she when when سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم was revealed to with the with the message that she was the first person to believe in him and everyone of the house in the house of سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم follow she was the first to to listen to the to the ayahs that were revealed to سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم بيجبير عليه السلام when جبير عليه السلام توت سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم how to how to make وضوء and how to pray she was the first of those who prayed with him صلى الله عليه وسلم she was the faithful wife she was the supportive wife she was the complete person و this is what we want for our woman for our Muslim woman this is why we learn about these amazing people that we have to be like them it's not just stories that are being narrated and that are being read no we have to get the lesson out of these stories then when it was with سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم was ordered to call for Islam in public قرش wanted to to harm say the محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم and they did to that with his two daughters قبولها his uncle who was so so mean to say the محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم his two sons married the two daughters of say the محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم رقية and before before the message but when when سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم called people for for Islam then his uncle asked ordered his two sons to divorce the two daughters of say the محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم and who was over watching this the mom خديجة رضي الله عنها so after رقية رضي الله عنها was married to say ابن عثمان ابن عثان سبحان الله so الله سبحانه وتعالى would never leave the oppressed without any reward so years passed and خديجة رضي الله عنها was witnessing events one after the other and supporting سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم practicing patience قانك سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم he never heard a word that would that was not good from خديجة رضي الله عنها she was always the best person and that's why she deserved the glad tidings the good news of sayyidna محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم from الله سبحانه وتعالى and that news that good news was sent to sayyidna محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم ثلو جيبريل عليه السلام when he said to sayyidna محمد أبل خديجة من الله السلام tell خديجة so the the hadith says سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم was sitting in the in the ghar in the cave and خديجة came so جيبريل عليه السلام said to sayyidna محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم this is خديجة coming to you with a container holding meat soup or some kind of food or drink هذه خديجة تتك بإناء فيه طعام أو إناء فيه شرب فأقرئها من ربها السلام so when she reaches you greet her on behalf of her lord oh my god imagine a greeting from الله سبحانه وتعالى فأقرئها من ربها السلام وبشيرها ببيت من قصب لا صخب فيه ولا نصب and on my behalf so so greet her on behalf of her lord and on my behalf and give her the good news of a house in paradise of a palace in paradise that that's made up of قصب قصب is the whole pair of jewels so this house looks like a splendid palace where there will be no noise or fatigue so this is the bushra for sayyidna خديجة رضي الله وعنه and then later on it was the ninth year of the of the calling of islam of be'ata then orish decided to boycott sayyidna محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم and his companions in the mountain الخديجة رضي الله وعنها she was she was an old lady and she she she she she just was so patient so now the lady who used to feed people and to make them full would not be able to to be full herself she would she would go she would sleep hungry she was weak but her faith was strong her love to sayyidna محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم and to his message was unbelievable no words can describe that love and that was the reason for her to be so patient and strong she would feel so sad and and and so upset when when she would see well how Quraysh are opposing sayyidna محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم and harming him and his companions she would say I wish I wish I knew the the people of مكة knew what I know about about the messenger of الله only if they know that if they realize that they would sacrifice their lives for him but there was a veil on their site their inner site was dark and they they didn't have an inner site so it was a three years of boycott and خديجة رضي الله عنها was getting weaker day after day after day she was in her about 65 years old and the only thing that would make her get stronger was the words of sayyidna محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم that the the promising words of sayyidna محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم that they will be victory even after after after time so so her face will get stronger she would want to she was she was wishing that she would get she would be alive when she when she would see that victory but الله سبحانه و تعالى محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم كان لديها لديها لديها محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم كان لديها و كانت فقط فقط بعد the boycott was released after the Muslims were back through their homes that أراد فقط proof you at a very short time that she passed away the uncle of sayyidna تْمُحَمَّد صلى الله عليه وسلم و صلى الله عليه وسلم كان في و归 year that he lost his outer support his uncle and his inner support inside his house his wife so sayyidna محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم وخديجة رضي الله عنها باستوبي، وشي was رضية المرضية، she was happy, she was content, she was of those whom الله سبحانه وتعالى said رضي الله عنهم ورضو عنهم. الله is pleased with them and they are pleased with Allah سبحانه وتعالى. She was the mom, she was the wife, she was the aunt, she was the mother of the believers. So خديجة رضي الله عنها did not witness the victory but she was promised of it. And سيبن محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم never forgot خديجة رضي الله عنه. And he used to say أمنت بي is كفر بي الناس she believed me when people did not believe me. وصدقتني is كذبني ناس she was truthful, she accepted me, she accepted my words when people believed me. وواصدني بمالها is حرامني ناس she supported me of her money when people deprived me. ورزقني الله عز وجل ولدها is حرامني أبراهد النساء. And Allah سبحانه وتعالى gave me the children from her when the other woman did not give birth to my children. To any children except for مريخ who had one child. So this was the first Muslim woman, the first Muslim صحابية at the time of Sayyidina Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم. She was the first mother of the believers, she was أم الزهراء وجد in the mother of الزهراء فاطل رضي الله عنها She is the grandmother of الحسن والحسين رضي الله عنهم and the other grandchildren she is and she was and she will be the master, the noble woman. سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم said خير النساء في زمانها. سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم said about خديج رضي الله عنها the best woman in her time. In another narration سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم said خير النساء في الجنة the best woman in paradise. So this was the first wife of سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم. After her death, whenever سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم would have something special, he would say send this to the family of خديجة. He would always remember her, he was so faithful to her. This was خديجة رضي الله عنها. A lot of things we have to learn from خديجة رضي الله عنها how to be a good wife, how to be a good mom, how to be a good companion, how to be the best. So with this I will end the first session of the pearls of Islam, the wives of our beloved prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. And the wives of the best of the creation سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم. يا حبيب يا رسول الله. يا الله سبحانه وتعالى. Reunite us with سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم with his wives. And may Allah in light in our hearts to receive the lights of سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم and of everybody that was helping and supporting سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم. And this was خديجة رضي الله عنها the first mother of believers in this series. إن شاء الله we will meet again next week. وصل الله معنا سيدنا محمد وعلى آله وصحبه وسلم. والسلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته.
