The Prophet Gets Married [Part 10]

Maysarah used to travel with the Prophet for business purposes as both were employed by Khadijah. Maysarah would witness great characteristics in Muhammad and would always report them back to Khadeejah. As a result, she grew fondness to him and married him when he was 25 years old.

Commentary

-Prophet Muhammad was known for his trustworthiness and manners and Maysarah witnessed this first hand.

-Khadeejah bint Khuwaylid was from the best of women ever created. Jibreel would give her Salaam and she has been guaranteed a house in Jannah by Allaah.

[TN: Ibn Hajar comments on the virtues of Khadeejah and stated that she was a woman of great wisdom and goodness and had a lot of love for the Prophet.  She will be rewarded with a house in Jannah without any Qasab (clay) or Nasab (tiredness) or Khasab (loud noises) because she was the first one from Ahl al-Bayt, and her house was refuge for the prophet. It was also said that she was a good wife that looked after the home]


-He was a very trustworthy and married her despite her being 15 years older than him. He didn’t marry anyone else whilst being married to her and he had 6 children with her, 4 girls and 2 boys.
