Turn over and read

1) Aa’ishah رضي الله عنها once said, “I do not know of a woman who brought greater blessing to her people more than Juwayriyah.”

2) She had great zeal for knowledge and memorized many narrations of our beloved Nabi ﷺ and conveyed them to others.

3) She was the means of many from her tribe embracing Islam.

In a hadeeth in Sahih Muslim, Juwairiyyah رضي الله عنها (the wife of our beloved Nabi ﷺ) says, she was sat remembering Allah Ta’aala when our beloved Nabi ﷺ passed by after the morning prayer. When our beloved Nabi ﷺ returned either after sunrise or midday she was still doing this same action.

Our beloved Nabi ﷺ said to her that he had read the following words 3 times since he left her and that these words are greater and more heavier (in the hereafter) than whatever she had said (for that entire time!). These words were:

سُبْحَانَ اللهِ وَبِحَمْدِهِ 

عَدَدَ خَلْقِهِ

وَرِضَا نَفْسِهِ

 وَزِنَةَ عَرْشِهِ

وَمِدَادَ كَلِمَاتِهِ

Subhan-Allahi wa bihamdihi, `adada khalqihi, wa rida nafsihi, wa zinatah `arshihi, wa midada kalimatihi

Note: These words are very special and rewarding because they are full of Praise and Glorification of Allah Ta’aala.

Our beloved Nabi ﷺ freed 100 people from Banu Mustalaq because of his marriage with Juwayriyyah.

(Musnad Ahmad)

Aa’ishah رضي الله عنها once said, “I do not know of a woman who brought greater blessing to her people more than Juwayriyah.”
