Khadījah's desire to marry him
[ رَغْبَةُ خَدِيجَةَ فِي الزَّوَاجِ مِنْهُ ] ثُمَّ بَاعَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ سِلْعَتَهُ الَّتِي خَرَجَ بِهَا، وَاشْتَرَى مَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَشْتَرِيَ، ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ قَافِلًا إلَى مَكَّةَ وَمَعَهُ مَيْسَرَةُ. فَكَانَ مَيْسَرَةُ - فِيمَا يَزْعُمُونَ - إذَا كَانَتْ الْهَاجِرَةُ وَاشْتَدَّ الْحُرُّ، يَرَى مَلَكَيْنِ يُظِلَّانِهِ مِنْ الشَّمْسِ - وَهُوَ يَسِيرُ عَلَى بَعِيرِهِ. فَلَمَّا قَدِمَ مَكَّةَ عَلَى خَدِيجَةَ بِمَالِهَا، بَاعَتْ مَا جَاءَ بِهِ، فَأَضْعَفَ أَوْ قَرِيبًا. وَحَدَّثَهَا مَيْسَرَةُ عَنْ قَوْلِ الرَّاهِبِ، وَعَمَّا كَانَ يَرَى مِنْ إظْلَالِ الْمَلَكَيْنِ إيَّاهُ. وَكَانَتْ خَدِيجَةُ امْرَأَةً حَازِمَةً شَرِيفَةً لَبِيبَةً، مَعَ مَا أَرَادَ اللَّهُ بِهَا مِنْ كَرَامَتِهِ، فَلَمَّا أَخْبَرَهَا مَيْسَرَةُ بِمَا أَخْبَرَهَا بِهِ بَعَثَتْ إلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ، فَقَالَتْ لَهُ - فِيمَا يَزْعُمُونَ - يَا ابْنَ عَمِّ. إنِّي قَدْ رَغِبْتُ فِيكَ لِقَرَابَتِكَ، وَسِطَتِكَ فِي قَوْمِكَ وَأَمَانَتِكَ وَحُسْنِ خُلُقِكَ، وَصِدْقِ حَدِيثِكَ، ثُمَّ عَرَضَتْ عَلَيْهِ نَفْسَهَا. وَكَانَتْ خَدِيجَةُ يَوْمئِذٍ أَوْسَطَ نِسَاءِ قُرَيْشٍ نَسَبًا، وَأَعْظَمَهُنَّ شَرَفًا، وَأَكْثَرَهُنَّ مَالًا؛ كُلُّ قَوْمِهَا كَانَ حَرِيصًا عَلَى ذَلِكَ مِنْهَا لَوْ يَقْدِرُ عَلَيْهِ. [ نَسَبُ خَدِيجَةَ ] وَهِيَ خَدِيجَةُ بِنْتُ خُوَيْلِدِ بْنِ أَسَدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعُزَّى بْنِ قُصَيِّ بْنِ كِلَابِ بْنِ مُرَّةَ بْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ لُؤَيِّ بْنِ غَالِبِ بْنِ فِهْرٍ. وَأُمُّهَا: فَاطِمَةُ بِنْتُ زَائِدَةَ بْنِ الْأَصَمِّ بْنِ رَوَاحَةَ بْنِ حَجَرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ بْنِ مَعِيصِ بْنِ عَامِرِ بْنِ لُؤَيِّ بْنِ غَالِبِ بْنِ فَهِرٍّ. وَأُمُّ فَاطِمَةَ: هَالَةُ بِنْتُ عَبْدِ مَنَافِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُنْفِذِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ مَعِيصِ بْنِ عَامِرِ بْنِ لُؤَيِّ بْنِ غَالِبِ بْنِ فِهْرٍ. وَأُمُّ هَالَةَ: قِلَابَةُ بِنْتُ سَعِيدِ بْنِ سَعْدِ بْنِ سَهْمِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ هُصَيْصِ بْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ لُؤَيِّ بْنِ غَالِبِ بْنِ فِهْرٍ
Translation
✧ [Khadījah's Desire to Marry Him] Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sold the goods he had set out with, and bought what he wished to buy, then returned to Makkah with Maysarah. Maysarah—as they assert—used to see, when it was midday and the heat had become intense, two angels shading him from the sun while he was riding his camel. When he arrived in Makkah to Khadījah with her wealth, she sold what he had brought, and it doubled or nearly so. Maysarah told her about the monk's words, and about what he had seen of the two angels shading him. Khadījah was a resolute, noble, and intelligent woman, along with what Allah willed for her of His honour. When Maysarah told her what he told her, she sent to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said to him—as they assert—"O son of my uncle, I have desired you because of our kinship, your standing among your people, your trustworthiness, your good character, and your truthfulness in speech." Then she offered herself to him. Khadījah at that time was the most distinguished woman of Quraysh in lineage, the greatest of them in honour, and the wealthiest of them; every man of her people was eager for that from her, if he could attain it. [Khadījah's Lineage] She was Khadījah bt. Khuwaylid b. Asad b. ʿAbd al-ʿUzzā b. Quṣayy b. Kilāb b. Murrah b. Kaʿb b. Luʾayy b. Ghālib b. Fihr. Her mother was Fāṭimah bt. Zāʾidah b. al-Aṣamm b.
