The first believer in Islam
Khadija accompanied the descent of the revelation in the Qur’an and an assignment, so when Gabriel taught the Prophet ablution and prayer before imposing five prayers, she prayed with the Prophet on the same day as Gabriel taught him. God conveys his greetings to you, and says to you: You are my messenger to the jinn and mankind, so invite them to say there is no god but God, and that Muhammad is the Messenger of God. He commanded him to perform ablution as he had seen him perform ablution, then Gabriel stood up and prayed facing the Kaaba, then commanded him to pray with him, so he prayed two rak'ahs, then he was taken up to heaven and returned, may God bless him and grant him peace, to his family. He fainted with joy, then took her by the hand until he brought her to Zamzam, performed ablution until he showed her the ablution, then ordered her to perform ablution, and prayed with her as Gabriel, peace be upon him, prayed for him.
With this, Khadija was the first to believe, the first to prove, the first to perform ablution and the first to pray. By God, God will never disgrace you, then I inferred from what is in it of attributes, morals, and character that whoever is like that will never be disgraced.” And on the authority of Al-Zuhri, he said: “Khadija was the first woman and man to believe in the Messenger.” And on the authority of Abi Rafi’, he said: “We inform the Messenger of God on the day Monday, Khadija arrived on the last Monday.” Ibn Ishaq said: “Khadija bint Khuwaylid was the first to believe in God and His Messenger, and believed in Muhammad in what he brought, and supported him in his affairs.” The scholars agreed that Khadija was the first to believe. Ibn Abd al-Barr said: “She is The first to believe in God Almighty and His Messenger, and this is the saying of Qatada, Al-Zuhri, Abdullah bin Muhammad bin Aqeel, Ibn Ishaq and a group. They said: Khadija was the first to believe in God Almighty among men and women, and they did not exclude anyone.
Ahmed bin Hanbal narrated in his Musnad on the authority of Ismail bin Iyas bin Afif Al-Kindi, on the authority of his father, on the authority of his grandfather, he said: “I was a merchant, so I made the Hajj, so I came to Al-Abbas bin Abdul Muttalib to buy some trade from him, and he was a merchant, so by God, I am with him in Mina when a man came out of his tent He was close to him, and he looked at the sun, and when he saw it, it tilted, meaning he got up to pray. He said: Then a woman came out of that tent from which that man came out, and she stood behind him to pray, then a boy came out when he had reached puberty from that tent, and he stood with him to pray. He said: Who is this, O Abbas? He said: This is Muhammad bin Abdullah bin Abdul Muttalib, my nephew. He said: I said: Who is this woman? He said: This is his wife Khadija bint Khuwaylid. He said: I said: Who is this boy? His uncle, he said, so I said: What is this he is doing? He said: He prays, and he claims that he is a prophet, and only his wife and his cousin follow him this young man, and he claims that he will open the treasures of Chosroes and Caesar to him. : And he became Muslim after that, so he became a good Muslim. If God had blessed me with Islam on that day, then I would be the third with Ali bin Abi Talib.
Her support and perseverance
Khadija moved from her previous role, which she played in establishing and preaching the Prophet, to a new role in supporting and assisting him in conveying the call, and confronting the polytheists and their turning away and aggression. On the authority of Abdullah bin Abbas, he said: “Khadija bint Khuwaylid was the first to believe in God and His Messenger, and Muhammad believed in the Messenger of God.” In what he brought about from his Lord and supported him in his command, so he did not hear from the polytheists anything that he hated from responding to him and denying him, except that God relieved him of it, confirming him, believing him, relieving him, and making it easy for him what he encountered from his people.
Quraysh harmed the Messenger with them, and the Messenger had married Ruqaya to Utbah bin Abi Lahab and Umm Kulthum to Otaiba bin Abi Lahab, and when the polytheists wanted to harm the Messenger, they asked Utbah and Otaiba to divorce the two daughters of the Messenger, so they divorced them, and in a narration that the Messenger married Utbah bin Abi Lahab with a telegram, so he walked to him Some of the polytheists said to him: Divorce the daughter of Muhammad, and we will marry you to any woman from Quraysh you wish. On the authority of Anas bin Malik, he said: “Uthman, may God be pleased with him, went out as an immigrant to the land of Abyssinia, and with him Ruqayyah, the daughter of the Messenger of God. He goes out to stop the news from them, so a woman came to him and told him, so the Prophet said: Othman was the first to immigrate to God with his family after Lot.
Siege of Bani Hashim
 |
The Quraysh gathered in the camp of Bani Kinanah, after their perplexity intensified, and their resourcefulness diminished, and all their attempts to eliminate the Prophet and get rid of him and his call failed, as Banu Hashim and Banu al-Muttalib were protecting him, and they decided to sever all ties between them and those who defended the Prophet, and they allied themselves on a binding document for all Quraysh to besiege the Prophet and all those who defended him, and I wrote a newspaper and hung it inside the Kaaba, and the terms of the treaty stipulated: they would not marry them or marry them, and they would not pledge allegiance to them, nor buy from them, nor give them hospitality, nor speak to them, nor sit with them, until they handed over the Messenger of God to them For killing, and they wrote in the newspaper (that they never accept reconciliation from Bani Hashem, and do not take pity on them until they hand over the Prophet to be killed). The aim of the treaty was to besiege the believers and their supporters and pressure them until they meet their conditions. And economically not to sell to them or buy from them.
When the siege was imposed on Bani Hashem, Khadija decided to leave her tribe, Bani Asad, the people of strength and resilience, and join her husband, the Prophet Muhammad, and those with him from Bani Hashim, to suffer what they suffer from hunger, weakness, and tragedy. Ibn Hisham narrated in his biography some of what she suffered and said: “Abu Jahl was Ibn Hisham - as they remember - met Hakim bin Hizam bin Khuwaylid bin Asad, with a boy carrying wheat, with whom he wanted his aunt, Khadija bint Khuwaylid, who was with the Messenger of God, and with him in the people. By God, you and your food will not leave until I disgrace you in Makkah. Then Abu Al-Bakhtari bin Hashem bin Al-Harith bin Asad came to him and said: What is your money and his right? He said: He carries food to Bani Hashim,
so Abu Al-Bakhtari said to him: Food that his aunt had with him, and she sent him for it. Will you prevent him from bringing her food to her? Let the man go, but Abu Jahl refused until one of them got from his owner. Severe, and Hamza bin Abd al-Muttalib is close to seeing that, and they hate that the Messenger of God and his companions inform that, so they gloat over them, and the Messenger of God calls upon his people day and night, secretly and openly, executing the command of God, in which he does not fear any of the people.
The effort of the besiegers reached such an extent that the voices of women and boys were heard screaming from the pain of hunger, and they were even forced to eat leaves from trees, and even to eat leather, and this crisis and human tragedy continued for three full years. Abdullah bin Abbas, who was born in the people, said: “We were confined to the people for three years, and they cut off the price from us, so that a man would come out with alimony, and he would not be sold until he returned, until he perished.”
About three years, until the tenth year of the Messenger’s mission, when a group of wise men of Quraysh contracted to revoke the document and sought to do so until they got what they wanted, and these people were: Hisham bin Amr from Bani Amir bin Louay, Zuhair bin Abi Umayyah al-Makhzoumi, and Abu al-Bakhtari Bin Hisham, Zam’a bin Al-Aswad, and Al-Mutamam bin Uday. Ibn Al-Qayyim said, “When the Quraysh saw the Messenger’s command rise and matters increase, they agreed that they would contract with Bani Hashim, Bani Al-Muttalib, and Bani Abd Manaf, that they would not pledge allegiance to them, nor marry them, nor speak to them, nor sit with them until they handed over a Messenger to them.”
God, and they wrote a newspaper and hung it on the ceiling of the Kaaba. It is said that it was written by Mansour bin Ikrimah bin Amer bin Hashem, and it is said that Al-Nadr bin Al-Harith, and the correct view is that he is obnoxious bin Amer bin Hashem, so the Messenger called on him, his hand failed, so Banu Hashim and Banu Al-Muttalib sided with their believers and infidels, except for Abu Lahab, for he Quraysh prevailed over the Messenger of God, Bani Hashim, and Bani Al-Muttalib, and the Messenger and those with him were imprisoned in the Shaab of Abi Talib on the night of the Muharram crescent in the seventh year of the mission, and the newspaper was suspended in the hollow of the Kaaba, and they remained imprisoned and confined to them, very straitened and cut off from them for about three years, until they reached the effort and heard The voices of their boys crying from behind the people, and the Quraysh were between satisfied and haters,
so he sought to overturn the newspaper who hated it, and the one in charge of that was Hisham bin Amr bin Al-Harith bin Habib bin Nasr bin Malik, he walked in that to the restaurant bin Uday and a group of Quraysh, and they answered him To that, then God informed His Messenger about the matter of their newspaper, and that he sent it to the earth, and it ate everything in it of oppression, severance and injustice, except for the remembrance of God Almighty, so he informed his uncle of that, so he went out to the Quraish, and told them that his nephew had said such and such, and if he was a liar, let us leave between you. And between him, and if he is truthful, you have turned back from our estrangement and injustice. They said: I have done justice, so they published the newspaper. When they saw the matter as the Messenger of God told it, they increased their disbelief to their disbelief, and the Messenger of God and those with him from the people left.
her death
The dome that was built over the tomb of Khadija bint Khuwaylid in the Al-Mu'alla cemetery in Mecca
Khadija bint Khuwaylid died three days after the death of the uncle of the Prophet Abu Talib bin Abdul Muttalib, and it was said more than that, in the month of Ramadan, three years before the migration in the year 619 AD, and she was sixty-five years old, and her station with the Messenger of God after he married her was twenty-four years and six months. And the Messenger of God buried her in Al-Hujun, and the funeral prayer was not on that day, and the Prophet grieved for her and went down in her grave, and the calamities followed the Messenger of God with the death of Abu Talib and Khadija, because they were among the most supportive of him and his defenders, so the Quraysh’s harm on him increased until some of them scattered dirt on his head and some of them laid on him. The sheep while he was praying, and the year in which Abu Talib and Khadija died was called the year of grief, and the Messenger of God did not forget his love for Khadija after her death and he always praised her and did not marry her until she died in honor of her. Revelation upon him.
Ibn Hajar Al-Asqalani said, “And she died, according to the correct opinion, ten years after the mission in the month of Ramadan, and it was said: eight, and it was said: seven, so she resided with the Messenger twenty-five years according to the correct opinion, and Ibn Abd al-Barr said twenty-four years and four months, and what will come from the hadith of Aisha that supports the correct In that her death was three years before the Hijrah, and that was ten years after the Prophet was sent correctly. Badr al-Din al-Ayni said, “Her death was
Khadija jurisprudence
Khadija's soundness of opinion, good management, and correct advice appeared in her life before her marriage to the Messenger, and in her choice of the Messenger as her husband, and then in her life with him until her death. There was an opinion in it or she referred to it, and there was jurisprudence, thought and prudence that distinguished it during the period of the Prophet’s mission, and among the examples of its jurisprudence:
From Khadija's jurisprudence and prudence, as soon as she heard of the Messenger and his biography, she approached him, and was keen to establish a working relationship with him, and after that she married him.
The biographers and historians unanimously agreed that the first person to believe in the Messenger was Khadija, and her faith was not a faith of emotion, rather it was a faith of insight, certainty and belief, and from it her stance on revelation: When the Messenger returned from the cave of Hira, his signs were trembling, he entered upon Khadija and said: “Zemaloni, Zamloni” Fear went away from him, and he said to Khadija: O Khadija, what is wrong with me? I feared for myself, so he told her the news.
One of the manifestations of Khadija’s jurisprudence is that she went to her cousin Waraqa bin Nawfal knowing what knowledge he had and what he had of religion, and she asked him to listen to the Messenger and tell him what he saw and what he heard. O Muhammad, the prophet of this nation, and these words were confirmation and documentation of its feeling and intuition that Muhammad is the Messenger of God.
Khadija once went to the Messenger in the cave of Hira, carrying water and provisions with her, so Gabriel came to the Messenger of God and said: “Oh Muhammad, this is Khadija carrying Hays in milking, and God sent me to her with peace, so Khadija came and the Messenger said to her: You have Hays.” She said: Yes, Messenger God, he said: Gabriel told me that and told me that God sent him peace to you, so Khadija said: O Messenger of God, peace be upon God and from him peace and peace upon Gabriel. Gabriel peace, Ibn Hajar Al-Asqalani said: “Scholars said in this story evidence of the abundance of its jurisprudence because it did not say, peace be upon him, as happened to some companions where they used to say in the tashahhud peace be upon God, so the Prophet forbade them and said: God is peace, so say greetings to God,
so Khadija knew Because of the correctness of her understanding that God does not respond to peace upon him as he responds to the creatures, because peace is one of the names of God, and it is also a supplication for peace, and neither of them is suitable to be answered by God. It is not befitting for God, except praise for Him, so I made the place of the return of peace upon him praise be to Him, then she changed between what befits God and what befits others, so she said: And upon Gabriel, then she said: And peace be upon you. That Gabriel was present at her answer, and she responded to him and the Prophet twice, once by specification and once by generalization, then she expelled the devil from whoever heard because he does not deserve to be supplicated for that ».
Righteousness of the Prophet after her death
Al-Bukhari narrated in his Sahih on the authority of the Mother of the Believers, Aisha, she said: “I was not jealous of any of the wives of the Prophet as I was jealous of Khadija and I did not see her, but the Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, mentioned her a lot, and perhaps he slaughtered the sheep and then cut it into parts and then sent it in the friendships of Khadija, so perhaps I said to him: As if he was not There is a woman in this world except Khadija, so he says: She was and she was and I had a son from her.
It was narrated from the Prophet that: “When he slaughtered a sheep, he would say, ‘Send it to Khadija’s friends.’”
Muslim narrated in his Sahih on the authority of the Mother of the Believers, Aisha, who said: “Hala bint Khuwaylid, sister of Khadija, sought permission from the Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him.
And in a narration by Ahmad on the authority of Aisha, the Mother of the Believers, she said: “Whenever the Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, mentioned Khadija, he praised her with the best of praise.” She said, “One day I was envious and said: How often do you remember her? From her, she believed in me when people disbelieved in me, believed me when people lied to me, comforted me with her money when people denied me, and God Almighty blessed me with her son when he deprived me of women’s children.” or dead, and honoring the acquaintances of that friend.
On the authority of Anas bin Malik, he said: “If something was brought to the Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, he would say: Take it to so-and-so, for she was Khadija’s friend. Take him to the house of so-and-so, for she loved Khadija.”
Ibn al-Arabi narrated in his dictionary on the authority of Umm al-Mu’minin, Aisha, she said: “An old woman came to the Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, and he was with me, and the Messenger of God said to her: Who are you? She said: Well, may my father and mother be sacrificed for you, O Messenger of God. When I left, I said: O Messenger of God, accept this turnout for this old man.
Ahmed bin Hanbal narrated in his Musnad on the authority of Abbad on the authority of Aisha, the wife of the Prophet, she said: “When the people of Mecca were sent to ransom their captives, Zainab, the daughter of the Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, sent money to ransom Abi Al-Aas bin Al-Rabee’ with money, and she sent him a necklace that belonged to Khadija, which she entered with it on Abi Al-Aas when he built She said: When the Messenger of God saw her, he felt great tenderness for her, and said: If you see that you release her captive and return what is hers to her, then do so. They said: Yes, O Messenger of God, so release him and return what is hers.
Her bounty

| khadija bint khuwaylid |
Khadija bint Khuwaylid has a great status and a great virtue among Muslims, as she was the first person to believe in the Messenger, and he never married her in her life, and she was not conceived with a woman until she left the world, and she is the best woman of the nation at all. The best of its women is Maryam, and the best of its women is Khadija.
Al-Dhahabi said: “Her virtues are many, and she is one of the most perfect women. She was sane, dignified, religious, and generous. She was among the people of Paradise. The Prophet used to praise her, and preferred her over all the mothers of the believers, and exaggerated her glorification, so that Aisha used to say: What woman was jealous of She was jealous of Khadija, because the Prophet mentioned her a lot, and from her dignity over him that he did not marry a woman before her, and he had several children from her, and he never married her, and he was not pleased until she ended her love, and he was found to lose her, because she was the best companion, and she used to spend on him from her money, And he trades for her.
And God commanded him to give her good tidings of a house in Paradise made of reeds, in which there is no clamor or strife.” Ibn Hajar Al-Asqalani said: “In the chapters on the beginning of the revelation, an explanation of her ratification of the Prophet at the first moment and her steadfastness in the matter is evidence of the strength of her certainty, the abundance of her mind, and the validity of her determination. Jaram was probably the best of his wives. A number of scholars have favored Khadija over the rest of the wives of the Prophet,
especially the mother of the believers, Aisha. Ibn Hajar Al-Asqalani said: “Al-Suhaili said, Abu Bakr bin Dawood inferred that Khadija is better than Aisha because Aisha was greeted by Gabriel from himself, and Khadija conveyed her peace from her Lord, and he claimed Ibn al-Arabi said that there is no dispute that Khadija is better than Aisha, and he replied that the dispute has been established in the past, although the most correct view is that Khadija is preferred by this and what has preceded. Khadija bint Khuwaylid and Fatimah bint Muhammad. Al-Subki Al-Kabir said: Aisha has countless virtues, but what we choose and owe to God is that Fatima is better, then Khadija, then Aisha. Which shows that combining the two hadiths is preferable, and that we do not prefer one of them over the other. Al-Subki was asked: Did anyone say that any of the Prophet’s wives other than Khadija and Aisha are better than Fatima? In his degree in Paradise, he said: It is a false and rejected statement. It ended. Al-Subki said: And the wives of the Prophet after Khadija and Aisha are equal in virtue.
Hadiths mentioned about it
Al-Bukhari narrated in his Sahih on the authority of Abdullah bin Abi Awfa, he said: “The Messenger of God performed Umrah and we performed Umrah with him, so when he entered Makkah he circumambulated and circumambulated with him, and he came to Al-Safa and Al-Marwah and we came to them with him, and we used to conceal him from the people of Makkah lest anyone throw him. He said: Then he told us what he said to Khadija. He said: Give good tidings to Khadija of a house from Paradise made of reeds, in which there is no clamor or fatigue.
Al-Bukhari narrated on the authority of Ali bin Abi Talib, he said: “I heard the Prophet say, the best of its women is Maryam, the daughter of Imran, and the best of its women is Khadija.”
Ahmed bin Hanbal narrated in his Musnad on the authority of Abdullah bin Abbas, he said: “The Messenger of God drew four lines on the earth. He said: Do you know what this is? Muzahim, the wife of Pharaoh, and Maryam, the daughter of Imran.
Al-Hakim al-Nisaburi narrated that the mother of the believers, Aisha, said: “The Messenger of God used to mention Khadija a lot, so I said: God has followed you from an old woman from the Quraysh with red cheeks who perished in the first era.” imagination of thunder and lightning until he knows whether it is mercy or torment.”
Hadith of Khadija's test for Gabriel and her proof of revelation
the novel
Khadija wanted to test Gabriel to make sure of his truth, so she said to the Prophet: “Which cousin can you tell me about this friend of yours who comes to you if he comes to you?” He said yes. He came to me, she said, get up, cousin, so sit on my left thigh. He said, so the Messenger of God stood and sat on her. She said, “Do you see him?” He said, “Yes.” She said: So he turned, so sit on my lap. She said: So the Messenger of God turned and sat on her lap. She said: Do you see him? He said: Yes. With a demon.” Khadija deduced that because the king left the place when she uncovered her head, and she realized that this behavior was not acted by a demon, but rather by an angel.
