Khadeejah (Ra) an Ideal Wife: A Perfect Model and Example of Muslim Women
The marriage is not just an economical and physical arrangement of living together but a holy agreement, a gift of Allah, to lead a joyful life and carry on the lineage. The connection between them is not like as neighbors and friends; it is more excessive. Allah (SWT) explained in the Quran: The sign of Allah is that He created mates for you from your selves to get tranquility in each other’s, and He placed between them love and compassion (Al-Quran, 30: 21). Husbands and wives must be well-mannered, pleasant, sympathetic, frank, helpful, reliable, well-wishing, loyal, and polite with one other. A good and virtuous wife is a most pleasure for a husband. Mother of the believers Khadijah (Ra) was dutiful, comfortable, and well-being of her husband to Prophet Muhammad (saw). This paper aims to explore and highlight the Khadijah (Ra) works, activities, behavior, and manners as a righteous wife of Prophet Muhammad (saw) and investigate the probable measures for Muslim women from her family life. This paper is a theoretical study based on the biography of Khadijah (Ra) and Hadith of the Prophet (saw). Therefore, I strongly think that today the instructions, lessons, and teachings from Khadijah (Ra) family life are indispensable for Muslim Ummah to bring peace and happiness in the modern age.
