SAHABIYAT: WOMEN OF THE PROPHET PBUH

How many female sports, movie, other TV personalities do you know of? Now honestly think that If we leave aside the Wives & Daughters of the Prophet ﷺ, How many names of Women Around the Prophet ﷺ do we know of? What do we know of them? Not many of us would be able to even give three names, and these are the women who were amongst the best of generations – The Sahaba; who were with the best of teacher – The Prophet ﷺ; who were not people who just sat home but did so much to help and serve the Deen of Allah! Each of these women played her role in the best possible way and in the noblest way in the arena of faith and sincerity. There is no truth to the claim that" the women of the beginning of Islam never came out except on three occasions: from the womb of her mother to the world; from her father's house to her husband's house, and from her husband's house to her grave!" This statement is a slander! The reality is that the women lived in the shade of this eternal religion enjoying their rights in full, sharing in the hopes and pains of her community. We have seen of them strugglers, ardent worshippers while some others were scholars. In this course, we live with immortalized women, believers, righteous, knowledgeable, strugglers (in Allah's path).
