Hazrat Khadija (RA), Mother of the Believers;

Hazrat Khadija (RA), also referred to as Khadija-tul-Kubra (Khadija the Great), is truly a beacon of light for today’s men and women who devoted all her life and wealth for the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and to the cause of Islam. Hazrat Khadija (RA) possessed excellence in character and was also known as “Tahira” (the pure) and was also the mother of Hazrat Fatima (RA), the beloved and revered daughter of the blessed Messenger (peace be upon him). Islam being an eternal charter of humanity has witnessed many personalities who have devoted everything at their disposal in the way of Islam and indeed Hazrat Khadija (RA) stands out and is a beacon of light for our sisters and brothers.

It is mentioned in Sahih Bukhari and in Masnad of Ibn-e-Hambal that Jibra’eel came to the Prophet (peace be upon him) and said, “O Messenger of Allah! This is Khadija. She has come carrying a bowl of broth or food or drink. When she comes to you give her greetings from her Lord (Allah) and from me…”
