حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عُفَيْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ قَالَ كَتَبَ إِلَىَّ هِشَامٌ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ؓ قَالَتْ

مَا غِرْتُ عَلَى امْرَأَةٍ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ مَا غِرْتُ عَلَى خَدِيجَةَ هَلَكَتْ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَتَزَوَّجَنِي لِمَا كُنْتُ أَسْمَعُهُ يَذْكُرُهَا وَأَمَرَهُ اللَّهُ أَنْ يُبَشِّرَهَا بِبَيْتٍ مِنْ قَصَبٍ وَإِنْ كَانَ لَيَذْبَحُ الشَّاةَ فَيُهْدِي فِي خَلاَئِلِهَا مِنْهَا مَا يَسَعُهُنَّ

I did not feel jealous of any of the wives of the Prophet ﷺ as much as I did of Khadija (although) she died before he married me, for I often heard him mentioning her, and Allah had told him to give her the good tidings that she would have a palace of Qasab (i.e. pipes of precious stones and pearls in Paradise), and whenever he slaughtered a sheep, he would send her women-friends a good share of it.
