| | The Prophet's Marriage With Khadijah |
 | | No sooner was she apprised of his willingness to marry her, Khadijah sent a message to his uncle and fixed a time when they should meet. |
 | | Suhayli, a well-known biographer of Muhammad (peace be upon him), asserts that Khuwaylid, the father of Khadijah, had died before the wars of Fijar and it was her uncle 'Amr, son of Asad, who gave her hand in marriage to him. |
 | | She gave Muhammad (peace be upon him) ease of circumstances, freedom from the cares of daily life, strength and comfort of deep mutual love, the factors which contributed to the furtherance of the mission of the Prophet. |
