Ummah Muminin Maimunah, the Last Woman Married by the Prophet

Allah ﷻ says,

النَّبِيُّ أَوْلَىٰ بِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ مِنْ أَنْفُسِهِمْ ۖ وَأَزْوَاجُهُ أُمَّهَاتُهُمْ ۗ

"The prophet (should) be more important for the believers than themselves and their wives are their mothers." (QS: Al-Ahzab | Verse: 6).

This verse explains that the wives of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ were his mother of believers. Rasulullah ﷺ has 11 wives. Everything is called the mother of the believers (Ummahatul Mukminin). Among his wives ﷺ is the First Believer of the Faithful Maimunah bint al-Harith Allah ahu anha.

Allah ﷻ call the wives of the Prophet ﷺ as mothers of believers. Of course ironic, when we - who claim to be believers - know more about artists than our own mothers. Something natural that we know who is the first lady. Don't know about your own mother? Hmm ...

Let's briefly get to know our mother, the Believers, Maimunah bint al-Harist, Allah be upon him.

Nasab

He was Maimunah bint al-Harits bin Hazn bin Bujair ibn al-Hazm bin Ruwaibah bin Abdullah bin Hilal. He was born in 29 before migrating and died on 51 AH to coincide with 593-671 AD His mother was Hindun bint Auf bin Zuhair bin al-Harits bin Hamathah bin Hamir.

The Faithful Mother Maimunah bint al-Harits had extraordinary sisters. They are Ummul Fadhl Lubabah Kubra bint al-Harits, wife of al-Abbas bin Abdul Muthalib. Then Lubabah Sughra Ashma bint al-Harits, wife of al-Walid bin al-Mughirah, his mother Khalid bin al-Walid. His other sister was Izzah bin al-Harits. These are his sisters and fathers. As for his sister, a thousand were Asma bint Umais, wife of Ja'far bin Abi Talib (Muhibuddin Athabari in as-Samthu ats-Tsamin, p. 189).

Position

His most important position is the wife of the Prophet ﷺ, in the world and in the future. He is his mother the people of faith. Sister of Umul Fadhl, wife of the Prophet's uncle ﷺ, al-Abbas bin Abdul Muthalib. Bibi from the figures of the companions, Abdullah bin al-Abbas and Khalid bin al-Walid, radhiallahu hum anhum ajma'in (adz-Dzahabi in Siyar A’almin Nubala, 2/238).

Another virtue, Ummin Mu'minin Maimunah narrated a number of hadith from the Prophet ﷺ. 7 of which are included in Sahih al-Bukhari and Shahih Muslim. There is one hadith narrated by Imam al-Bukhari himself. 5 hadiths by Imam Muslim himself. Of these two priests there are 13 hadith narrated from him (adz-Dzahabi in Siyar A'almin Nubala, 2/245). Hadith which became his charity charity. Useful knowledge that is read and practiced by the Muslims until the end of time.

Rasulullah ﷺ once praised him and his sisters with his words ﷺ,

الأخوات مؤمنات: ميمونة زوج النبي, وأم الفضل بنت الحارث, وسلمى امرأة حمزة, وأسماء بنت عميس هي أختهن لأمهن

"The believing women who are brothers are Maimunah, the wife of the Prophet, Ummul Fadhl bint al-Harith, Salma his wife Hamzah (bin Abdul Muthalib), Asma bint Umais. "They are all brothers and sisters." (HR. Thabrani in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir 12012, al-Hakim in al-Mustadrak 6801 and he says saheeh based on Muslim conditions. Al-Alabani also commented on saheeh in as-Silsilah ash -Shahihah 1764).



From here we can take lessons, to get a good soul mate, we need to reflect on the position and quality of ourselves. Maimunah was ordained by the Messenger of Allah ﷺ as a woman of faith. He also has an extraordinary family circle. Consisting of figures of friends and leaders of Muslims. Sorry, sometimes some people crave a godly and pious partner, but they don't try to make themselves qualified.

Marrying the Best Man

Ummah Mu'minin Maimunah was the widow of Abi Ruhm bin Abdul Uzza. When "the process" with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, Al-Abbas bin Abdul Muttalib became the matchmaker of both. Al-Abbas offered it to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in Juhfah. Marriage was held in 7 AH (629 AD) and at the same time became the last marriage of the Prophet ﷺ.

Some say that Maimunah radhiallahu ‘anha who offered himself to the Prophet. Because the Prophet's application procession took place when Maimunah was on her mount. Maimunah said, "His mount and what is on him (himself) are for Allah and His Messenger. Then Allah ﷻ sent down the verse,

وَامْرَأَةً مُؤْمِنَةً إِنْ وَهَبَتْ نَفْسَهَا لِلنَّبِيِّ إِنْ أَرَادَ النَّبِيُّ أَنْ يَسْتَنْكِحَهَا خَالِصَةً لَكَ مِنْ دُونِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ

"And believing women who surrender themselves to the Prophet if the Prophet wants to marry him, as a specialization for you, not for all believers." (QS: Al-Ahzab | Verse: 50).

It was stated that the previous name was Barrah. Then the Messenger of Allah gant changed it to Maimunah.

The wisdom of the Prophet's marriage ullah with Maimunah

This marriage gave a tremendous blessing to the children of Hilal, the family of Ummin Mu'minin Maimunah. Bani Hilal is more motivated and interested in embracing Islam. Prophet Muhammad bagian became part of their extended family. This is a great encouragement to sit down and hear his words. Until they welcomed and justified the minutes. They embraced Islam because of obedience and choice, not because of coercion (Muhammad Fatahi in Ummahatul Mukminin, p. 206).

Rashid Ridha said, "It was reported that the uncle of the Prophet, al-Abbas, offered Maimunah to the Prophet. And he is a sister of al-Abbas's wife, Ummul Fadhl Lubabah Kubra. At the request of Umad Fadhl, al-Abbas proposed it for the Prophet. Al-Abbas saw the tremendous concern of this marriage, if not surely he would not pay such attention "(Muhammad Rasyid Ridha in Nida 'lil Jinsi al-Lathif fi Huquqil Insan fil Islam, p. 84).

Households of Maimunah and Prophet

The First Believer, Maimunah, handed over his marriage to his sister, Ummul Fadhl. Then Umul Fadhl submitted it to al-Abbas. If in the world of commerce today, al-Abbas holds the biodata of Maimunah and then offers it to the Messenger of Allah ullah. Rasulullah ﷺ welcomed his uncle's offer. Then married Maimunah with a dowry of 400 dirhams (Ibn Kathir in as-Sirah an-Nabawiyah, 3/439). The lesson from here, someone matchmaker is also a candidate quality factor that he chooses. Maimunah is the uncle of Rasulullah lang, not half-hearted, the best human being is the candidate he chooses.

With the inclusion of Maimunah binti al-Harith, Allah ha anha in the circumference of Ahlul bait, being one of the wives of the Prophet ﷺ, then he has a big role in narrating the news of the life of the Prophet ullah. As the word of God ﷻ,

وَاذْكُرْنَ مَا يُتْلَى فِي بُيُوتِكُنَّ مِنْ آيَاتِ اللَّهِ وَالْحِكْمَةِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ كَانَ لَطِيفًا خَبِيرًا

"And remember what was read in your house from the verses of Allah and wisdom (the sunnah of your prophet). Verily, Allah is the Most Gentle, the Knower. "(QS: Al-Ahzab | Verse: 34).



Al-Baghawi said, "The purpose of the word of God‘ And remember what is read in your house from the verses of Allah ’is the Koran. Whereas 'Wisdom' according to Qatadah is as-Sunnah. And Muqatil said, "The laws and wills contained in the Qur'an." (Al-Baghawi in Ma’alim at-Tanzil, 6/351).

This is among the great lessons of the Prophet's marriage ullah. The more narrators (in this case the wife of the Prophet) who narrated the words and actions of the Prophet dalam in his household, the stronger the history. Many of the hadiths that we did not meet in muamalah were the Prophet with friends and society, but we found in muamalah Rasul ullah with his wives. About bathing, ablution, and what he did at home. About his sunnah when going to sleep, during sleep, and awake from sleep. About entering and leaving the house. etc. No one can tell in detail, except Ummahatul Mukminin radhiallahu ‘anhunna.

The death of Maimunah's mother

Mother of Maimunah binti al-Harith, Allah be upon him ‘he died at Sarif, the area between Mecca and Medina. He died in 51 H / 671 AD, at the age of 81 years (Ibn Saad in ath-Thabaqat al-Kubra, 8/140). May Allah hai meridhai him and gather us with our mothers - those who believe in heaven later.

Prayers and greetings may always be devoted to our Prophet Muhammad and his wives and family.

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...
