The Best Woman of the Women of This Nation
"Interestingly enough, when Rasulullah صلى الله عليه وسلم used to remember Khadījah رضي الله عنها after her death, he would cite her support of him in prophethood & that she was the mother of his children. Most remember her today simply because she was allegedly a “CEO boss woman”.
She, رضي الله عنها, was a woman that the Prophet never ceased to remember fondly & lovingly, despite marrying multiple women after her passing. But we find that the reason that he remembered her and loved her so much, is far different from the reason many today remember her.
People today remember her as “an independent woman”, a “businesswoman”, an icon for feminists (a’udhu billah from such a statement), etc. But when Rasulullah صلى الله عليه وسلم remembered her and spoke of her, what did he cite? Why did he love her so much? Not for the reasons people do today, but because she was such a GOOD AND SUPPORTIVE WIFE and because she was the MOTHER of his children! Not because she was a “businesswoman” or the likes.
To the dismay of most of the modern women who claim Islām, the major role she played in Islāmic history and what she was remembered for the most was being an amazing
wife and
mother.
Two roles they want to diminish the importance of and discourage Muslimāt from seeking.
Imagine a wife so supportive and believing of her husband’s Da’wah and prophethood and so loving that even after her death, his wives after her would feel jealousy just from the way he remembered and spoke of her.
That’s a type of wife and mother sisters should aspire to be."

عائِشَةَ ـ رضى الله عنها ـ قَالَتِ اسْتَأْذَنَتْ هَالَةُ بِنْتُ خُوَيْلِدٍ أُخْتُ خَدِيجَةَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم، فَعَرَفَ اسْتِئْذَانَ خَدِيجَةَ فَارْتَاعَ لِذَلِكَ، فَقَالَ " اللَّهُمَّ هَالَةَ "
Narrated A'ishah (رضى الله عنها): Once Hala bint Khuwaylid, Khadijah's sister, asked the permission of the Prophet (ﷺ) to enter. On that, the Prophet (ﷺ) remembered the way Khadijah used to ask permission, and that upset him. He said, "O Allah! Hala!"
What a woman she was! Even after her passing A'ishah (رضى الله عنها) used to say to the Prophet (ﷺ) about her:
كَأَنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ فِي الدُّنْيَا امْرَأَةٌ إِلاَّ خَدِيجَةُ.
"(You treat Khadijah in such a way) as if there is no woman on earth except Khadijah."
