Is Mariyah al-Qibthiyah the Prophet's wife?

Mariyah bint Syam'un al-Qibthiyah is a woman from Egypt. In the year 7 AH, the King of Alexandria (Egypt), Muqauqis, sent the Mariyah to the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam. Friends of Hatib bin Abi Balta'ah took care of him on the way to Medina. When he met the Prophet, he embraced Islam.

Embracing Islam

In the 6th year H, the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam accused the kings. He sent them a letter. Inviting them to embrace Islam. Among the kings who got the letter was Muqauqis, King of Alexandria, Egypt. In response to the letter, Muqauqis gave many gifts to the Prophet. Among them are Mariyah and her sister named Sirin. Also included was Khasi, Mariya's brother. He also rewarded the prophet with lots of gold. 20 soft clothes. A bighal and a donkey. The prizes were entrusted to the friend of Hatib bin Abi Balta'ah radhiallahu ‘anhu.

Hatib accused Mariyah, Sirin, and Khasi. Mariyah is interested in Islam. Sirin immediately embraced this noble religion. While Khasi remained above his new religion when he arrived in Medina, he embraced Islam.

From this we get a lesson, most non-Muslims do not embrace Islam because they do not know Islam. Or they get wrong information about Islam. Muslims should not be afraid and delay to preach. Introduce this religion to non-Muslims. They have the right to know the truth. So that they get choices and choose the best path for their life. That is, every Muslim must equip himself with religious knowledge.

We also know why the Messenger of Allah forbade anyone to live in an infidel country. Because there, information about Islam is minimal. While the ambiguity of thinking about Islam is very large. This news gap can endanger the faith of a Muslim.


With the Messenger of Allah

Mariyah is a beautiful white woman. But he did not belong to the ummah of the believers. In the month of Dhul Hijjah in 8 H, Mariyah gave birth to the son of the Prophet and was named Ibrahim. The Prophet's wives also felt jealous of him.

With the birth of Ibrahim, Mariyah became an independent woman. Ibn Abbas said, "When Mariyah gave birth, the Prophet said," He was liberated by his son. "Ibrahim lived for a year and a few months in the attention of the Prophet. Before he was two years old, Ibrahim was sick. Then he died when he was only 18 months old. He died in the year 10 AH, on Tuesday when the new Rabiul Awal was running several days. Mariyah was very sad with her son's departure.
To understand the position of Mariyah, we can see the words of Mother Ayesha radhiallahu ha anha, "I never jealous of women with the Prophet as my jealousy for Mariyah. Because she is a very beautiful woman and her hair is wavy. The Prophet was very interested in him. When he first arrived, he placed Mariyah in the house of Harithah bin an-Nu'man so that we became neighbors. Day and night the Messenger of Allah be with him until we take the time to pay attention to him so that he does not feel at home. Then the Prophet moved him to a higher area. He often met him there. That is the hardest for us. "

Die

Mariyah died on the month of Muharam in 16 H. Umar bin al-Khattab gathered people to overtake him. And he was buried in Baqi Cemetery. Ibn Mandah said, "Mariyah died 5 years after the Prophet died. Radhiallahu ‘anha wa askanahu fasiha jannatih.

The Law of Eating Food for the Rest of Others in Islam

On the previous occasion, we have briefly reviewed some of the ways of eating the Prophet, one of which is to spend the remaining food on a plate or tray where you eat. Spending the rest of the food actually has its own philosophy of appreciating the blessings given by Allah SWT. Islam forbids his people from wasting the sustenance obtained. And therefore, as Muslims we must respect every drop of water and every seed of food that is available by not wasting the food or drink and using it for a positive purpose. The rewards that we give to food or drink are actually a form of our gratitude for God's favor. Therefore in one of the narrations of the Prophet sallallaahu ahu alaihi wasallam always licked the leftover food stuck to the fingers of his hand. From Jabir bin ‘Abdillah he said that the Prophet sallallaahu‘ alaihi wasallam said, "Don't sweep his hand with a napkin before he licks his finger. Because he doesn't know which food brings blessings. "(Narrated by M...
