Home Hadith Hadith 3654
I did not feel jealous of any woman as much as I did of Khadija because Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) used to
mention her very often. He married me after three years of her death, and his Lord (or Gabriel)
ordered him to give her the good news of having a palace of Qasab in Paradise.
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 63, Hadith 42
← Previous Hadith
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.

I did not feel jealous of any of the wives of the Prophet (ﷺ) as much as I did of Khadija though I did not
see her, but the Prophet (ﷺ) used to mention her very often, and when ever he slaughtered a sheep, he
would cut its parts and send them to the women friends of Khadija. When I sometimes said to him,
"(You treat Khadija in such a way) as if there is no woman on earth except Khadija," he would say,
"Khadija was such-and-such, and from her I had children."
