Khadija’s friend
 

Hazrat Khadija was his first wife, who lived together with him for twenty-five years of his thirty-eight year marriage life and who was the mother of his six children out of seven children.

He mentioned his love for Hazrat Khadija from the time she died until the time he died using every means.

It was when he was married to Hazrat Aisha. An old woman visited their house. Hazrat Muhammad (pbuh) recognized her. However, he asked her name. The woman said,

“Jassama (Ugly thing)”. Hazrat Muhammad (pbuh) corrected her,

“No! You are not Jassama; you are Hassana (Beautiful thing).”He also said other nice things to the old woman; it attracted Hazrat Aisha’s attention. After the old woman left, Hazrat Aisha could not help asking,

“O Messenger of Allah! You complimented that woman a lot!”

Hazrat Muhammad (pbuh) answered with tears in his eyes,

“She was a friend of Khadija's. She often visited us when I was married to her.”
