The Expedition of Banu Qurayzah in the Year Five
[ شَأْنُ رَيْحَانَةَ ] وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَدْ اصْطَفَى لِنَفْسِهِ مِنْ نِسَائِهِمْ رَيْحَانَةَ بِنْتَ عَمْرِو بْنِ خُنَافَةَ، إحْدَى نِسَاءِ بَنِي عَمْرِو بْنِ قُرَيْظَةَ، فَكَانَتْ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ حَتَّى تُوُفِّيَ عَنْهَا وَهِيَ فِي مِلْكِهِ، وَقَدْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَرَضَ عَلَيْهَا أَنْ يَتَزَوَّجَهَا، وَيَضْرِبَ عَلَيْهَا الْحِجَابَ؛ فَقَالَتْ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، بَلْ تَتْرُكُنِي فِي مِلْكِكَ، فَهُوَ أَخَفُّ عَلَيَّ وَعَلَيْكَ، فَتَرَكَهَا. وَقَدْ كَانَتْ حِينَ سَبَاهَا قَدْ تَعَصَّتْ بِالْإِسْلَامِ، وَأَبَتْ إلَّا الْيَهُودِيَّةَ، فَعَزَلَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ، وَوَجَدَ فِي نَفْسِهِ لِذَلِكَ مِنْ أَمْرِهَا. فَبَيْنَا هُوَ مَعَ أَصْحَابِهِ، إذْ سَمِعَ وَقْعَ نَعْلَيْنِ خَلْفَهُ؛ فَقَالَ: إنَّ هَذَا لِثَعْلَبَةَ بْنِ سَعْيَةَ يُبَشِّرُنِي بِإِسْلَامِ رَيْحَانَةَ؛ فَجَاءَهُ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، قَدْ أَسْلَمَتْ رَيْحَانَةُ، فَسَرَّهُ ذَلِكَ مِنْ أَمْرِهَا
Translation
✧ [ The Matter of Rayḥānah ] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ had chosen for himself from their women Rayḥānah bt. ʿAmr b. Khunāfah, one of the women of Banū ʿAmr b. Qurayẓah. She remained with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ until he passed away while she was in his possession. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ had offered to marry her and to impose the veil upon her, but she said: "O Messenger of Allah, rather leave me in your possession, for it is lighter upon me and upon you." So he left her. When she was taken captive, she had clung to Islam but refused anything but Judaism, so the Messenger of Allah ﷺ set her aside and felt distressed about her affair. While he was with his companions, he heard the sound of two sandals behind him and said: "This is Thaʿlabah b. Saʿyah bringing me the good news of Rayḥānah's acceptance of Islam." Then he came and said: "O Messenger of Allah, Rayḥānah has accepted Islam." He was delighted by that concerning her.
