The reader: In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and may prayers and peace be upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and all his Companions:
The author (may Allah have mercy on him) quoted: "From Malik ibn Rabi'ah al-Sa'di (may Allah be pleased with him), who said:
While we were sitting with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), a man from Banu Salimah came to him and said: O Messenger of Allah, is there any part of kindness to my parents that I can do for them after their death? He said: Yes, praying for them, seeking forgiveness for them, fulfilling their covenants after them, maintaining the ties of kinship that are not maintained except through them, and honoring their friends. بينا نحن جلوس عند رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، إذ جاءه رجل من بني سَلَمة فقال: يا رسول الله هل بقي من بر أبوي شيء أبرهما به بعد موتهما؟ فقال: نعم، الصلاة عليهما، والاستغفار لهما، وإنفاذ عهدهما من بعدهما، وصلة الرحم التي لا توصل إلا بهما، وإكرام صديقهما
, narrated by Abu Dawud.
And from Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), who said:
I did not feel jealous of any of the wives of the Prophet (ﷺ) as much as I did of Khadija though I did not see her, but the Prophet (ﷺ) used to mention her very often, and when ever he slaughtered a sheep, he would cut its parts and send them to the women friends of Khadija. When I sometimes said to him, "(You treat Khadija in such a way) as if there is no woman on earth except Khadija," he would say, "Khadija was such-and-such, and from her I had children." ما غِرت على أحد من نساء النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم ما غِرت على خديجة رضي الله عنها، وما رأيتُها قط ولكن كان يكثر ذكرها، وربما ذبح الشاة ثم يقطعها أعضاءً ثم يبعثها في صدائق خديجة، فربما قلت له: كأن لم يكن في الدنيا امرأة إلا خديجة ؟! فيقول: إنها كانت وكانت وكان لي منها ولد
Sahih al-Bukhari 3818
, agreed upon by al-Bukhari and Muslim.
In another narration:
and whenever he slaughtered a sheep, he would send her women-friends a good share of it. وإن كان ليذبح الشاة فيهدي في خلائلها منها ما يسعهن
Sahih al-Bukhari 3816
. In another narration, when he slaughtered a sheep, he would say:
Send it to the friends of Khadijah. أرسلوا بها إلى أصدقاء خديجة
, and in another narration, she said:
A'isha reported that Hala b. Khuwailid (sister of Khadija) sought permission from Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) to see him and he was reminded of Khadija's (manner of) asking leave to enter and (was overwhelmed) with emotions thereby and said: O Allah, it is Hala, daughter of Khuwailid, استأذنت هالة بنت خويلد أخت خديجة على رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، فعرف استئذان خديجة، فارتاح لذلك فقال: اللهم هالة بنت خويلد
Sahih Muslim 2437
