The lie that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) slaughtered a camel for Khadijah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And so, may Allah preserve him, he says: A preacher stood before us there, and part of his sermon was that when the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) lost his wife Khadijah (may Allah be pleased with her), he slaughtered a camel for her and held a mourning ceremony for her for three days, and that this was reported from Qatadah.

Answer:
This is a lie. This is a lie. He did not slaughter a camel, nor did he hold a mourning ceremony for her. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) grieved for her, and he grieved for the death of his uncle who had supported him. They died in the same year, so the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) grieved for them. As for the claim that he slaughtered a camel, or all of this, it is false and part of the deceptions. Yes.
