The Virtues of Khadijah (may Allah be pleased with her)
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Our brother Ibrahim Abu Hamid, in his second question, asks: What are the virtues of Khadijah (may Allah be pleased with her), the daughter of Khuwaylid, over the other mothers of the Muslims?
Answer:
The scholars have mentioned among her virtues that she was the first wife the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) married, and that she was the mother of most of his children (may Allah be pleased with her). He (peace and blessings be upon him) loved her greatly; at times he would slaughter a sheep and give it in charity to her female companions, until some of the scholars said: She is the best of women.
The correct view is that the best of women is Aishah, and Khadijah is also among the best of women. The noble women who are the best of women are five: Khadijah, Aishah, Fatimah, Asiyah the wife of Pharaoh, and Maryam the daughter of Imran. These five are the best of women, and the best of them is Aishah; because of his (peace and blessings be upon him) saying:Sunan Ibn Majah 3281Sahih (Darussalam) Yes.

The superiority of ‘Aishah over other women is like the superiority of Tharid over all other foods.
