 السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته والصلاة والسلام على سيدنا وحبه بنا وشفيعنا وقائدنا وقرّة عيوننا سيدنا محمد من وعلى آله وصحبه وسلّم يا ربنا لك الحمد كما ينبغي لجلال وجيك وعظيم سلطانك اللهم افتح لنا فتوحة العالفين اللهم معلمنا ما ينفعنا ونفعنا بما علمتنا يا رحم الراحيمين today insha Allah we will talk about one of the unique pearls in Islam one of the mothers of the believers she is the wife of Sayyidina Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم زيناب بنتخ زيما and she was in her 60s when Sayyidina Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم got married to her so let's see who is our mother of the believers sayyidah زيناب بنتخ زيما so the best Muslim is the best person of living happily because he knows that whoever is around him man and woman he knows that people around him are his partners in good deeds are his partners in khair are his partners in everything that would give people some purity so whoever does good things, good deeds and whoever likes to do good deeds continually then he would know that Allah سبحانه وتعالى has rewarded him in one way by making him continuously doing good deeds and whoever lives by doing good deeds he himself would feel that there is something deep inside him that would force him, that would push him that would urge him of doing good deeds and Allah سبحانه وتعالى has mentioned this in so many in so many anas in the Quran and he mentioned that whoever does something good then this person will be rewarded so in Surat Al-Baqara Allah سبحانه وتعالى says وما تفعل من خير يعلمه الله so the first thing whoever does anything good Allah سبحانه وتعالى would know it and of course the same thing is for doing something bad Allah سبحانه وتعالى would also know it in Surat Al-Zinsala Allah سبحانه وتعالى says فما يعمل مثقال ذرة خير يراه so whoever does an atom's weight of good then he will see its reward today in Sha Allah we will be talking about one of the mothers of the believers who was well known for doing good who was well known for her generosity who was well known for loving Allah سبحانه وتعالى and she was considered or she was one of the mothers of the believers one of the curls of Islam and she got the honor she got the status of being a mother of the believers and that happened when she got married to Sayyidina Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم so this generous woman this generous mother of the believers was and will always be called the mother of the needy أم المساقين the mother of the poor and she was called so because she was well known for her being good to them for doing good to those who are in need before we talk about her let's go back a little a little bit about her early life زينا بنتخ زيما رضي الله عنها was born in Makkah المكرمة and she was born about in Makkah about 13 years before Sayyidina Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم was being revealed too and when she was young when she got older Makkah was enlightened by the light of Islam so she immediately joined the first group of the pioneers to embrace Islam and before before marrying Sayyidina Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم it is said that زينا was married to a couple of new husbands and that was in Medina so in one of the narrations اقتبراني narrated that زينا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم got married to Zayna بنتخ زيما الهلالية ام المساقين he got married to Zayna the mother of the poor the mother of the needy and she was before that with زينا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم got married to her in Medina in another narration we got the information that زينا بنت الحارث و بنت الحارث was married to اقتفيل ابن الحارث زينا بنتخ زيما was married to زينا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم and then she got married to زينا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم and Obaidah was killed and he was murdered on the day of بدر and he was a murderer during the battle so later on زينا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم got married to her after he married حفصه رضي الله عنه so it was the third the third year that باتا أفجره and there were there were a lot of كمبانيين so many companions was murdered and died so it was the norm that Muslims would not leave the محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم without getting married so they would get they would have they would get another wife and with her children to take care of them so that will make it less that will make it less of pressure and less of a torture for them for losing the محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم so محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم of the محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم who lost their one of the wives who lost their their husband in the battle of أحد I want to correct this in the battle of أحد she was زيناب بنتخزيما الهلالية and she was very saddened by that she was so sad to lose her husband and she was in المدينة المنورة she had no no one to support her no one to provide for her سفر الله سبحانه وتعالى but زيناب بنتخزيما رضي الله سبحانه وتعالى was so connected her heart was so connected with Allah سبحانه وتعالى and she knew that when Allah سبحانه وتعالى takes something he will give abundantly in return and this is very important for us so sometimes we we lose something sometimes we lose sometimes we lose we do something valuable so just be sure that الله سبحانه وتعالى whenever he takes something he will give abundantly in return she was very sure of that and she accepted Allah's order she accepted the قضاء she was put in so the time when she was waiting after the death of her husband at that time for months and 10 days this time passed by and soon after سيدنا محمد صبح الله و عليه وسلم proposed to her and that was the answer to her deep belief in Allah سبحانه وتعالى deep acceptance to the order of Allah سبحانه وتعالى she knows that there will be some good here out of it so سيدنا محمد صبح الله و عليه وسلم became the one who would take care of her after having no one to take care of her to support her after having no one to support her so سيدنا محمد صبح الله و عليه وسلم proposed for her and she accepted of course and her dowry was 400 درحم سيدنا محمد صبح الله و عليه وسلم got a room to be built for her next to the room of Haisha and Hafsa may Allah be pleased with them all and with this blessed marriage Allah سبحانه وتعالى blessed Allah سبحانه وتعالى changed the life of so she became one of the mothers of the believers one of the mothers of the believers who were complete in religion in generosity in being good in patience she was one of the mothers of the believers so she was well known to be the mother of the poor in addition that she was the mother of the believers so her title the mother of the poor was was not new she was very old very old title that she gained and she was she was known even before her before being a Muslim before starting her Islamic journey she was known to be a very generous woman and she was well known to be the one who always does good let's stop for a second and have a glance about doing good when we do good we feel we ourselves feel good but Allah SWT has given us the chance has given us the opportunity to help another person whether physically whether emotionally whether by money whether by word whether by status of doing good we know that this good deed would touch the heart of the person and every religion every culture values and rewards the performance of good deeds everyone every religion every culture would urge people to do good and when they do good they would value that good so when you do good and you continue to do good then this by itself is one of the biggest rewards one time and that's it when you do good you feel that you want to do more when you make someone happy you feel happiness you feel deep happiness in your heart that will urge you to do more good deeds and that will help you to do to do more good things that would make people happier and Subhanallah سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم talked about being good to people and doing good to people when someone relieves another person when someone helps another person against one of the calamities of this dunya so he says صلى الله عليه وسلم من نفس عن مؤمن كربة من كرب الدنيا نفس الله عنه كربة من كربية مؤمن القيامة if anyone relieves a Muslim a Muslim believer from one of the hardships of this worldly life then Allah سبحانه وتعالى will relieve him on one of the hardships of the day after on the day of resurrection when everyone is scared when everyone is does not know what's going on نفسي نفسي myself then he will see the word of what he did in his dunya ومن يسر على معصر يسر الله عليه في الدنيا والآخرة and if anyone makes it easy for someone who is inverted to him الله سبحانه وتعالى will make it easy for him in the year after because someone asked you for money they are in need and they got some money from you make it easy for them if you feel at the time of paying back that they are still unable to pay it just think of ways how you can help yourself before helping them because when you help them when you forgive them when you say okay either I'm going to give you another due date to fulfill paying back this debt or you say I am forgiving you for the sake of Allah I don't want this money for the sake of Allah and you know that you did it just for the sake of Allah and not that people would say this is a generous person your intention should be pure for the sake of Allah because if it is not then you will get your reward in dunya and not in the day after in the akhir if you want people to say oh he is a generous people then people will say it and that will be your reward in this dunya but you lose your reward of the akhir so your intention should be pure for the sake of Allah سبحانه وتعالى ومن ستر مسلم ستره الله في الدنيا والآخرة and if someone conceals the faults of a Muslim then Allah سبحانه وتعالى will conceal his faults in the hereafter he helped someone in this dunya he covered his faults but he did not reveal him if you know something about any person do not reveal it say this is not my business Allah سبحانه وتعالى is going to take care of that person may Allah guide him may He do not expose anyone والله في عوم العبد this is the way how this beautiful hadith ends والله في عوم العبد Allah helps his slave ماتان العبد في عوم أخي as long as he helps his brother and this is how زيناب بنتوخ زيناب رضي الله عنها was the most generous she was she loved the poor she loved the needy and she was so good to them and as I mentioned she was so even before Islam in the pre-islamic era she was given that that title the mother of the poor the mother of the people in need so after becoming Muslim she increased her being good to the poor she increased her being good to the needy and she would see the people of the of those who are next to Sayyidina Muhammad the needy people of and these are still till today these are called and the are the people who left their just to be next to Sayyidina Muhammad in the road they are always in the road and do you imagine that Sayyidina Muhammad would accept anyone if he is not pleased with him may Allah SWT be pleased with us may Sayyidina Muhammad be pleased with us so as I mentioned these are the people of and the mother of the believer Sayyidina Muhammad she was she was so big hearted that she would take care of anyone she would help anyone who is in need so when was married to Sayyidina Muhammad she didn't have in mind to be a competitor to his previous wives so she didn't have in mind to compete with with with she did not want that and that's why Haisha and Hafsa knew what's her intention so they had no jealousy feelings towards Zainab so they knew that when Sayyidina Muhammad was married Zainab he married her out of mercy he married her to take care of her so she is not a competitor to them she did not came just to compete with them so Zainab was as I mentioned just very well known for for being good to to the the orphans she was very good to the people in need and we have to stop here for a second we just mentioned the orphans and Sayyidina Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم خيروا البيوتي بيتون فيه يتيمون يقرم the best of the houses the best of the houses is the house where there is an orphan who is being well taken care of and we have a lot of these orphans in this in this society we often hear that oh the the father was the father died and left a few children and then the same thing or the mother died and she left a few children behind so we have orphans and Sayyidina Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم urged us to be good to the orphans so he wanted and there are so many so many narrations so many hadith that would show how Sayyidina Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم urged Muslims to be good to the orphans in one of these narrations he said أنا وكافر ولياتين يكهاتين myself and the one who takes care of the orphan is like this and he pointed together he put together his two fingers together next to each other to show that the two became one so I say that Sayyidina Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم was known for being good to the orphans for being good to the needy for being good to the poor and she she left with Sayyidina Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم with the mothers of the believers she lived for a very short time so it was only just a few years that she lived with them and Sayyidina Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم got into the house of Sayyidina Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم in a calm way in the silence of those who worship the worship of Allah سبحانه وتعالى in a in a way that shows the purity in a way that shows the love of Allah سبحانه وتعالى so she was one of the mothers of the believers who did not stay long with Sayyidina Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم she passed she passed away during his life and she was buried in جنة البقية next to those great people great companions who preceded her and who left this world just to be buried in this of dunya so the death of Zainab رضي الله عنها the mother of the believers reminded Sayyidina Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم of the death of Khadija رضي الله عنها the mother of the believers his wife his first wife whom he had great love to his first wife who supported him when he needed support she supported him emotionally she supported him financially she helped him in all and every possible way and she was the mother of his children so the death of Zainab رضي الله عنها just opened again the memory of the life of Sayyida Khadija رضي الله عنها and of course she was always with him but that was a special way of remembering her so Zainab رضي الله عنها died and she did not narrate any of the Hadith of Sayyidina Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم we saw how عائشة رضي الله عنها narrated so many Hadith and we saw that حفص رضي الله عنها narrated so many Hadith also but Zainab رضي الله عنها did not narrate any of the Hadith of Sayyidina Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم there is no narration that there is anything any chain that was linked to her رضي الله عنها she was caring about one thing she was caring about just being good to people just being good to those who need who need help and also that was one of the reasons that she was caring about the needy and the other reason is that she just lived for a very short time with Sayyidina Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم and that's why that was another reason why she did not narrate anything any of the Hadith of Sayyidina Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم the mother of the believers Zainab رضي الله عنها passed away in ربيع الثاني and that was during the fourth year of the Hijrah and she was buried as we just mentioned in جنة البقير in المدينة and سبحان الله one of the one of the صحابة one of the companions Sayyidina Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم when she was asked عبد الله بن شافر رضي الله عنه he said to him who went down in her grave and Abdullah said three brothers of her so they they went down and they got her into her grave so with this عبد الله بن شافر رضي الله عنه was the first of the women of Sayyidina Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم the first of his wives to die in المدينة while خديجة رضي الله عنه died in Mecca and she was buried in Al-Hajoon so whenever you go visit Mecca just visit أم المؤمنين خديجة رضي الله عنه when you go visit المدينة just also remember and visit those people who were who were buried in جنة البقية and those this amazing beautiful جنة البقية is blessed because Sayyidina Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم his face is toward his eyes his care his love was to them and he would visit them he would visit those companions those mothers of believers his daughters he would visit everyone in جنة البقية so just الله سبحانه وتعالى will highly reward those who do good with something better so our lesson today is to be good our lesson today is to be good our lesson today is to be good our lesson today is to trust in الله سبحانه وتعالى that if there is a calamity that happens to you if you pass through a hardship then always remember that Allah سبحانه وتعالى is just testing you what are you going to do with this hardship that you passed with we all pass through so many hardships lost of loved ones the loss of money the loss of people around us the loss of wealth so what's going to happen how are you going to react when something like this happens how are you going to accept what Allah سبحانه وتعالى decreased to you سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم says whoever accepts then he will be highly rewarded ومن سخط فعلي and whoever whoever does not accept الله سقد قدر الله then he will be punished when سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم was passing by a woman who lost her child she was crying and crying on his grave and she didn't she didn't see سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم so she didn't know that the person behind her was so سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم said take it easy woman and she said just leave me you don't have the same hardship that I'm suffering from and she kept on crying and weeping and then later on they told her that what did you say to سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم he was advising you and you did not accept his advice she ran immediately to سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم and she said يا رسول الله لم أعرف I did not know you I did not recognize you that you were behind me because his answer انها مصبرو عنده صدمة العولة practicing patience it happens at the beginning when you have the calamity this is when you should practice patience so whenever you are in need of something just remember والتعالى أن تكون شخص من الناس الذين يستطيعون الله وهذا هو ما حدث لزينا برطي الله عنها عندما تنسألها كانت لديها أشعار قديمة بأن الله سبحانه وتعالى يستطيعونها وأنه سوف يرغبها وأنه تعرف أن أن عندما يكون شخص من الناس الله سبحانه وتعالى سيكون شخص منه كانت تأكيد أن الله سبحانه وتعالى سوف يرغب شيء لها سوف يكون أفضل أفضل في الدنيا و أفضل أفضل في الآخرة أنها لم تتوقع أنها سينا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم سوف يرغبها ولكنها كانت تأكيد كانت تأكيد أن تكون one of the pearls of Islam one of the pearls necklace of Islam لذا هذا كان قصة هذا كان شيئا عن السيد زينا رضي الله عنها زينا بنتو خزيما رضي الله عنها هل يمكن الله أن يكون سعيدا معها هل يمكن الله أن يرغبها هل يمكن الله أن يرغب جميع الشخصين هل يمكن الله سبحانه وتعالى يستطيعوننا معهم under the banner of سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم لذا مع هذا إن شاء الله وحتى next week I will leave you by sending a special greeting and the best salams to our beloved سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم and until next week إن شاء الله will have another preparation for another pearl of Islam for another wife another one of the wives of سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم والسلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته
