As Salaamun Alaikum Sisters and Brothers, The Women in the Seerah of Prophet Muhammad were also a part of the Plan of Allah. They were not just there for having children and house cleaning as many learned individuals would have us to believe. Our wives are not “Maids”…they are our “Mates”…they are not our “Property” they are our “Partners”. The next Woman in the Seerah of Prophet Muhammad is: MAYMUNA bint al-Harith Maymuna bint al-Harith, (may Allah be pleased with her), married the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) in 7 AH, when the Prophet was sixty years old and she was thirty six years old. Maymuna was thus one of the Ahlul- Bayt , the people of the House, not only by virtue of being a wife of the Prophet, (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) but also because she was related to him. Maymuna or Barra as she was then called, yearned to marry the Prophet. She went to her sister, Umm al Fadl to talk to her about that and she, in turn, spoke to her husband, al-Abbas. Al-Abbas immediately went to the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) with Maymunas offer of marriage to him and her proposal was accepted. This woman offered herself to the Prophet Muhammad but she was not the only one. There was another incident where a woman offered herself to the Prophet, but he did not respond to the offer. So another man rose up and the Prophet marries her to him for a small dowry. What was the dowry of this marriage from this man to this woman, that the Prophet Muhammad approved of? What was the dowry to Prophet Muhammad from the woman? Please join the group: “Women in the Seerah of the Prophet Muhammad” in order to keep up with the dialogue. https://youtube/watch?v=nc0KrbsL5lM
