As Salaamun Alaikum We must first and foremost admire the sister for her honesty about her character, and her modesty about her beauty and age. This reminds me that the Prophet Muhammad saw her face. Allahu Ahkbar! She played a role in decision making which sets the example that Allah bestows His Wisdom on Whom He pleases…not just men! We should be ashamed of schools that do not produce women scholars! We should be ashamed of places that deny women their rights! Please enjoy the video and tell me what you think about the decision Umm Salamah played during the Umra? Umm Salama Hind bint Abi Umayya, may Allah be pleased with her, was married to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) in 4 AH at the age of twenty nine, after her first husband, Abdullah ibn Abdul Asad, had died from the wounds he had received while fighting at the battle of Uhud. Umm Salama and Abdal Asad had been among the first people to embrace Islam in the early days of the Muslim community in Mecca. They had suffered at the hands of the Quraish who had tried to force them to abandon their new faith, and had been among the first group of Muslims to seek refuge under the protection of the Negus in Abyssinia. When they had returned to Mecca, believing that the situation of the Muslims had improved, they had found instead that if anything it was worse. Rather than return to Abyssinia, Abdal Asad and Umm Salama had received the Prophets permission to immigrate to Medina, but this proved not to be as easy as they might have imagined. Umm Salama was not the only wife to have been widowed as a result of the battle of Uhud, and thanks to this marriage, many of the Companions followed the Prophets example, marrying widows and thereby bringing them and their children into the circle of their families, instead of leaving them to struggle on their own. Aisha said, When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) married Umm Salama, I felt very unhappy when he mentioned her beauty to us. I waited until I saw her and she was even more beautiful than her description. She was also from a very noble family and known for her keen intelligence. On more than one occasion, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) asked her advice in tricky situations She also had a home for her four children: Salama, Umar, Zaynab, and Durra who ere the foster children of the Prophet. https://youtube/watch?v=_zjtIsmHFds&feature=youtu.be
