The Love Story Rasulullah SAW

Who is khadijah?

He is Khadija r.a, a widow, noble, wealthy, beautiful and wise woman. He is respected by the people of Quraysh in particular, and the Arabs in general. As an entrepreneur, he provides much help and capital to merchants or induces people to represent his business affairs abroad.

A lot of Quraish's youth wanted to marry her and be able to pay whatever dow she wanted, but she always refused it gently because no one pleased her.

Dreaming to see the sun down to his house

One night he dreamed of seeing the sun coming down from the sky, coming into his house and emitting its light evenly all over the place so there was not a house in the city of Makkah that escaped from its rays.

The dream was told to his cousin named Waraqah bin Naufal. He is a man of old age, an expert in dreams and experts about the history of ancient nations. Waraqa also has extensive knowledge in religion brought by previous prophets.

Waraqa said: "The takwil of your dream is that you will marry someday with an end-time prophet." "The prophet comes from which country?" Khadija asked earnestly. "From this city of Makkah!" Waraqah said shortly. "From which tribe?" "From the Quraish tribe as well." Khadijah asked further: "From which family?" "From the family of Bani Hashim, a respectable family," Waraqah said in a comforting tone. Khadijah paused, then impatiently passed the last question: "What is the name of the great man, my cousin?" The old man asserted: "His name is Muhammad SAW. He'll be your husband! "

Khadijah came home with a great feeling of excitement. Never had he felt such great joy. So since then Khadija always wait from where the future emergence of the leader.

Application of khadijah to Rasulullah s.a.w

Muhammad Al-Amiin appeared at Khadijah's house. The businesswoman said

Khadijah: "Hi Al-Amiin, tell me what you need!" (Her voice is friendly, generous tone, with humble attitude but knows her self-esteem)

Muhammad SAW speaks straight, frankly, though somewhat shy but for sure.

Muhammad SAW: "We and my family need a living from my part in a commercial entourage. Our family desperately needs it to find a match for their orphaned siblings "

(His head was bowed, and the lady of the reporter looked at him with great amazement)

Khadija: "Oh, is that ...! Muhammad, that wage is little, does not produce anything for you to cover the purposes you intend, ". "But let me, myself, find a wife for you." (He paused, examined).

It then proceeds with compelling and intuitive sound pressure

Khadijah: "I want to marry you to a woman of Arab nobility. He was good, rich, wanted by many kings and great Arabs and foreigners, but he refused. It's my duty to take you ".

Khadijah (Khadijah downcast and then continued): "But alas, there is a disgrace ...! She had been married. If you want, then he will be a pengkhidmat and devoted to you ".

The youth of Al-Amiin did not answer. They are both silent, both stuck in their respective thoughts. One needs the answer, the other does not know what to answer. Khadija r.a could not know what was hidden in the heart of the young Bani Hashim, a young man famous for the title of Al-Amiin (honest). The youth of Al-Amiin may not even know who the candidate is referring to by Khadija r.a.

Rasulullah SAW asked permission to go home without any decision left. He told his uncle.

Rasulullah SAW: "I feel very offended by the words of Khadija r.a. It was as if he was looking lightly at this and that "and so ..." He repeated what the rich woman said.

'Atiqah was also angry at the news. She was a woman who quickly became angry when her judges offended the honor of Bani Hashim. He said: "Muhammad, if so, I will come to him".

'Atiqah arrives at the house of Khadija r.a and continues to admonish it: "Khadija, if you have wealth and nobility, then we also have glory and nobility. Why are you insulting my son, my brother Muhammad's son? "

Khadija r.a was surprised to hear it. He did not suspect that his words would be considered an insult. He stands to reconcile and reconcile the hearts of 'Atiqah:

Khadijah: "Who is able to insult your descendants and your tribe? Let me tell you that I am the one who I mean to Muhammad SAW. If he wants, I'm willing to marry him; If not, I promise not to marry to death ".

Kadi's honest statement of sincerity makes' Atiqah speechless. The two noble ladies were equally bright. Conversation becomes serious. "But Khadija, is your heart's voice known to your cousin Waraqah bin Naufal?" Atiqah asked as he continued: "If you have not yet tried to get his approval." "He does not know yet, but tell your brother Abu Talib to have a simple banquet. A drinking banquet, where my cousin was invited, and there was an application counsel ", Khadija r.a said as if to arrange a strategy. He was sure Waraqah would not mind because he interpreted his dream of marrying an end-time prophet.

'Atiqah came home feeling calm, satisfied. The beloved beloved bud arrived. He immediately conveyed the good news to his brothers: Abu Talib, Abu Lahab, Abbas and Hamzah. All cheerfully welcomed the results Atiqah's encounter with Khadijah "That's great," Abu Talib said, "but we must consult with Muhammad SAW first."

Khadija is beautiful

Before being invited to deliberation, then first he has also received a woman named Nafisah, envoy Khadijah r.a who came to establish a familial relationship. Khadija's private envoy asked:

Nafisa: "Muhammad, why are you still not thinking of looking for a wife?"

Muhammad SAW replied: "Desire exists, but the ability does not yet exist."

Nafisah "What if somebody wants to make a living? Then you have a good wife, beautiful, treasure, nation and sekufu also with you, whether you will reject it? "

Rasulullah SAW: "Who is he?" Asked Muhammad SAW.

Nafisa: "Khadijah!" Nafisa was straightforward. "As long as you are willing, everything is perfect. The affairs leave it to me! "

Nafisah's efforts succeeded. He left the main son of Bani Hashim and went directly to Khadija r.a, recounting the willingness of Muhammad SAW. After Muhammad SAW received notice from his brothers about the outcome of the meeting with Khadija r.a, then you do not mind getting a widow who is fifteen years older than him.

How disagreeing, what is less to Khadija? She was a noble woman, beautiful, wealthy, wise. And the main thing because his heart has opened God to love him, has been destined to be arranged with him. If a widow says, so be it! She was a forty-year-old widow, but a fresh widow, slender, fair-skinned and eye-catching. So the majlis was full of beauty.

Present Waraqah bin Naufal and some prominent Arabs who were deliberately picked up. Abu Talib officially proposed Khadija r.a to his cousin. The wise old man agreed. But he asks for periods to negotiate with the women concerned.

Muhammad's marriage to Khadija

Khadija r.a asked opinion. Honestly he said to Waraqah: "O my cousin boy, how I will reject Muhammad SAW when he is very trustworthy, has a noble personality, glory and descendant of nobility, and also his familial kinship". "It's true you say, Khadija, it's just that he is not treasure", Waraqah said. "If he is not wealthy, then I am quite treasure. I do not need a man. I represent you to marry me to him, "Khadija r.a gave her affair.

Waraqah bin Naufal returned to Abu Talib preaching that from the family side of women has been unanimous consent and blessing the marriage of the bride. Applications received with the consent of dowry five hundred dirhams. Abu Bakr raa, who later received the title "Ash-Shiddiq", a close friend of Muhammad SAW. From childhood, to donating beautiful Egyptian garments, which symbolize the Quraish's nationality, as it is to be used in the marriage ceremonies of marriage, especially since the one to marry is a noble and noble as well.

The marriage of Muhammad SAW with Khadija r.a took place on Friday, two months after returning from a commercial journey to the land of Sham. Acting as guardian of Khadija r.a is his uncle named 'Amir bin Asad.

Waraqah bin Naufal read aloud the wedding sermon, greeted by Abu Talib as follows: "Alhamdu Lillaah, praise be to Allah Who created us descendants (Prophet) Ibrahim, the seed (Prophet) Ismail, the son of Ma'ad, of the descendants of Mudhar. "Likewise we praise Allah Almighty Who keeps us guardians of His house, the guardian of His secure Haram Land, and makes us judge against our fellow human beings.

"Verily, my son, Muhammad bin Abdullah, if he is to be weighed with any man, he will be heavier than all of them. Although he does not have property, but the treasure is a shadow that will disappear and something that will be fast Gone. But Muhammad SAW, you already know who he is. He had proposed Khadija bint Khuwailid. He will give the dowry five hundred dirhams he will soon pay with cash from my own property and my brothers.

"By Allah SWT, in fact I have a feeling about him that after this, in the future, he will get good news (albasyaarah) and great experiences. "May Allah bless this marriage". The welcome to enliven the wedding majlis was very festive at the home of the bride. Dozens of sons and daughters stood marching in the right door along the passageway through the groom, greeting the bridegroom and scattering the guests and attendants.

After the ceremony and the guests broke up, Khadijah r.a opened her heart to her husband with the words: "O Al-Amiin, cheer up! All these treasures, both movable and immovable, consisting of buildings, houses, merchandise, slaves are yours. You are free to spend it on which path you redhai! "

That is as the Word of Allah SWT intends: "And He (Allah) finds you as a deficiency, then He gives wealth". (Adh-Dhuhaa: 8)

How happy the two noble spouses, living as husband and wife sekufu, halaluan, harmonious and ambition.

Guaranteed Entrance Heaven

Khadija r.a accompanied Muhammad SAW. For twenty-six years, ie sixteen years before being inducted into the Prophet, and ten years after the time of prophethood. He was a single wife, unequivocal, divorced by death. The year of his death was called "The Year of Sadness" ('Aamul Huzni).

Khadija r.a was the first person to believe in Rasulullah SAW. When the first revelation came down from the sky. No one preceded it. When Rasulullah SAW recounted his experience on the event of the first revelation of Jibril 'alaihissalam, where he feels fear and shivers witnessing the form of Gabriel a.s in his original form, then Khadijah was the first to understand the meaning of the event and comfort him, saying:

"Rejoice and be at ease in your heart. By Allah Almighty who ruled Khadija r.a, thou this truly will be the Messenger of Allah for our people. "Allah SWT will not disappoint you. Are not you the one who always strives to connect the ropes of brotherhood? Are not you always telling the truth? Do not you always take care of orphans, honor guests and extend help to everyone who suffers misfortune and misfortune? "

Khadija r.a defends her husband with her wealth and self in upholding the kalimah of tawheed, and always comforts her in the sorrow she suffers from the disturbance of her people who still disbelieve against the truth of Islam, deflect all the attacks of verbal abuse launched by the nobles and the Quraish's. It is worth it if Khadija r.a gets special privileges that other women do not have, that is, receiving greetings from Allah SWT. Delivered by the angel Gabriel a.s to Rasulullah SAW. Accompanied by greetings from Jibril a.s personal to be conveyed to Khadijah radiallahu 'anha and comforted with heaven.

Khadija's loyalty was balanced by the love of the Prophet (s) to him unlimitedly. The Prophet SAW once said: "The first and the first woman to enter Paradise is Khadijah bint Khuwailid, Fatimah bint Muhammad SAW, Maryam bint 'Imran and Asyiah bint Muzaahim, Pharaoh's wife".

Best woman

Another praise that many times spoken Rasulullah SAW. To Khadija's personality is: "She is the best woman, because she has believed and believed me when others are still in doubt, she has justified me when others denied me; He has sacrificed all his possessions when others prevent his generosity from me; And he bore me sons and daughters whom I have not acquired from the other wives. "

The sons of Rasulullah SAW. From Khadija raa as many as seven people: three men (all died in childhood) and four women. One of his daughters was Fatimah, married to Ali ibn Abu Talib, together with the tribe of Bani Hashim. The descendants of these two couples are regarded as the direct descendants of the Prophet Muhammad.

Khadijah's struggle

When the Prophet (SAS) encountered obstacles and disturbance from the men of Quraysh, then beside him stood two women. The two women stood behind the da'wah of Islamiah, supporting and working hard to serve their leader, Muhammad SAW: Khadijah bin Khuwailid and Fatimah bint Asad. Therefore Khadijah has the right to be the best woman in the world. How not to be like that, he is Ummul Mu'minin, the best of wives and good example for those who follow his example.

Khadija prepared a comfortable home for the Prophet (s) before he was appointed Prophet and helped him while reflecting in Hira 'Cave. Khadija was the first woman to believe in her when the Prophet (s) prayed to her Lord. Khadija is the best woman who helps her with her soul, possessions and family. His life fairy is fragrant, his life is full of virtue and his soul is full of goodness.

Rasulullah SAW said: "Khadija believed me when people disbelieved, he justified me when people denied him and he helped me with his property when people did not give me anything."

Why do we bother looking for examples here and there, whereas in front of us there is "the best woman in the world," Khadijah bint Khuwailid, faithful and obedient Umm al-Mu'minin, who mingles well with her husband and helps her in seclusion before being appointed The Prophet and confirm and justify it.

Khadijah precedes everyone in faith in his message, and helps him and the Muslims with their souls, possessions and family. So Allah SWT replied to his religion and His Prophet with the best reward and gave him pleasure and pleasure in his palace, as told Prophet SAW, to him in his lifetime.

When Gabriel A.S. Came to the Prophet SAW, he said: "O Messenger of Allah, this is Khadija has come bringing a container of sauce and food or drink. When he comes to you, convey greetings to him from his Lord and me, and tell him about a house in heaven from a pearl that has no noise in it and no tiredness. "[HR. Bukhari in "Fadhaail Ashhaabin Prophet SAW. Imam Adz-Dzahabi said: "Keshahihan has been agreed upon."]

Is not this palace better than the palaces of the world, hi, the people who are deceived by the world? Sayidah Khadija r.a. Was the first woman to join the entourage of the Mu'min who was the first to believe in Allah after the Prophet (s). Khadija r.a. Carrying a banner with the Prophet from the first moment, jihad and work hard. He spent his wealth and hostile to his people. He stands behind his husband and his Prophet until his last breath, and deserves to be the ultimate example for women.

Imagine, because Khadija r.a. Is prophet of the Prophet (s) from the beginning of prophethood. Ar-Ruuhul Amiin had come down to him first in a cave in the mountains, then told him to read the noble verses of Scripture, as desired by Allah Almighty. Then he appeared in his way, between heaven and earth. He did not turn right or left so that the Prophet saw him, then he stopped, did not go forward and did not retreat. All that happened when the Prophet was among the mountain streets in a state of loneliness, no entertainers, friends, helpers and helpers.

The Prophet (s) remained in such an attitude until the angel left him. Then he went to Khadija in fear of the consequences he heard and saw. When he saw it, Khadijah said: "Where are you, O Abal Qasim? By Allah, I have sent several messengers to search for you until they arrive in Mecca, then return to me. "So the Prophet SAW told his story to Khadija r.a.

Khadija r.a. Said: "Rejoice and be steadfast, O, my uncle's son. By Allah Who rules over my life, I wish you Become the Prophet of this people. "The Prophet did not get from him, except for the reign of his heart, his joy for himself and support for his affairs. Prophet SAW never got from him something sad, either in the form of rejection, lie, ridicule against him or avoidance of him. But Khadijah stretched out her chest, wiping out her sadness, cooling her heart and lightening her affairs. Thus should the ideal woman.

That is he, Khadija r.a., whom Allah Almighty has sent his greetings to him. Then down Jibril U.S. Delivered the greeting to Rasul SAW while saying to him: "Convey to Khadijah greetings from his Lord. Then Rasulullah SAW said: "O Khadija, this is Gabriel delivering greetings to you from your Lord." Then Khadija r.a. Replied: "The God who sends greetings (prosperity), from Him comes the greeting (prosperity), and to Jibril may be given the salutation (welfare)."

Indeed, he is a position no one among the first and first converts to Islam and the rashidine khulafaq. This is due to the attitude of Khadija r.a. At the first moment is greater and greater than all the attitudes that support the proselytization afterwards. Indeed Khadija r.a. Is a great blessing of Allah to the Prophet Muhammad. Khadija accompanied the Prophet for a quarter of a century, doing good to him when he was anxious, helping him in difficult times, helping him in his message, participating in the painful jihad and helping him with his soul and his wealth.

Rasulullah SAW said: "Khadija believed in me when people deny. He justifies me when people belie. And he gave his treasure to me when people did not give me anything. Allah granted me a son from him and forbids me a son from besides him. "[HR. Imam Ahmad in his "Musnad", 6/118]

Narrated in saheeh hadeeth, from Abu Hurairah r.a., he said: "Gabriel came to the Prophet (s), then said:" O Messenger of Allah, this Khadija has come bringing a container of sauce, food or drink. When he comes to you, convey to him his greetings from his Lord and tell him about a house in heaven, (made) from a pearl that has no noise in it and nothing to wear. "[Sahih Bukhari, Chapter of the Prophet's Marriage with Khadijah and His Virtue, 1/539]
