عَنْ أَبِي زُرْعَةَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ يَقُولُ أَتَى جِبْرِيلُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَذِهِ خَدِيجَةُ قَدْ أَتَتْكَ بِإِنَاءٍ مَعَهَا فِيهِ إِدَامٌ أَوْ طَعَامٌ أَوْ شَرَابٌ فَإِذَا أَتَتْكَ فَاقْرَأْ عَلَيْهَا السَّلَامَ مِنْ رَبِّهَا وَمِنِّي وَبَشِّرْهَا بِبَيْتٍ فِي الْجَنَّةِ مِنْ قَصَبٍ لَا صَخَبَ فِيهِ وَلَا نَصَبَ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that Jibreel (Gabriel), peace be upon him, came to the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him and his family, and said: O Messenger of Allah! This is Khadijah coming to you with a vessel containing stew, or food, or drink. When she reaches you, convey to her greetings of peace from her Lord and from me, and give her the glad tidings of a house in Paradise made of pearls and rubies, in which there will be neither noise nor fatigue.

عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أُبَشِّرَ خَدِيجَةَ بِبَيْتٍ مِنْ قَصَبٍ لَا صَخَبَ فِيهِ وَلَا نَصَبَ
Narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Ja'far bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: I have been commanded to give glad tidings to Khadijah of a house made of pearls with rubies, in which there is neither noise nor fatigue.
Hadith 10555
عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ يَعْنِي ابْنَ أَبِي خَالِدٍ قَالَ قُلْتُ لِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي أَوْفَى رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ صَاحِبِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَشَّرَ خَدِيجَةَ قَالَ نَعَمْ بَشَّرَهَا بِبَيْتٍ فِي الْجَنَّةِ مِنْ قَصَبٍ لَا صَخَبَ فِيهِ وَلَا نَصَبَ قَالَ يَعْلَى وَقَالَ مَرَّةً لَا صَخَبَ أَوْ لَا لَغْوَ فِيهِ وَلَا نَصَبَ
It is narrated from Ismail bin Abi Khalid, he says: I said to the Companion of the Messenger of Allah, Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abi Awfa (may Allah be pleased with him): Did the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) give glad tidings to Sayyida Khadijah (may Allah be pleased with her)? He said: Yes, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave her the glad tidings of a house in Paradise made of rubies and pearls, in which there will be neither noise nor fatigue. In another narration, it is stated: In it, there will be neither noise nor idle talk, nor fatigue.
Hadith 10556
عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ مَا غِرْتُ عَلَى امْرَأَةٍ مَا غِرْتُ عَلَى خَدِيجَةَ وَلَقَدْ هَلَكَتْ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَتَزَوَّجَنِي بِثَلَاثِ سِنِينَ لِمَا كُنْتُ أَسْمَعُهُ يَذْكُرُهَا وَلَقَدْ أَمَرَهُ رَبُّهُ أَنْ يُبَشِّرَهَا بِبَيْتٍ مِنْ قَصَبٍ فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَإِنْ كَانَ لَيَذْبَحُ الشَّاةَ ثُمَّ يُهْدِي فِي خُلَّتِهَا مِنْهَا
Narrated from Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), she says: I did not feel as much jealousy towards any woman as I felt towards Sayyida Khadijah (may Allah be pleased with her), even though she had passed away three years before the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) married me. The reason for this jealousy was that I used to hear the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) mention her frequently, and Allah the Exalted had commanded him to give her the glad tidings of a house in Paradise made of pearls and rubies. And whenever the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) slaughtered a goat, he would send some of it to the friends of Sayyida Khadijah (may Allah be pleased with her).
Hadith 10557
عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ خَطَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الْأَرْضِ أَرْبَعَةَ خُطُوطٍ قَالَ تَدْرُونَ مَا هَذَا فَقَالُوا اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَفْضَلُ نِسَاءِ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ خَدِيجَةُ بِنْتُ خُوَيْلِدٍ وَفَاطِمَةُ بِنْتُ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَآسِيَةُ بِنْتُ مُزَاحِمٍ امْرَأَةُ فِرْعَوْنَ وَمَرْيَمُ بِنْتُ عِمْرَانَ
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) drew four lines on the ground, then asked: Do you know about these lines? They said: Allah and His Messenger know best. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The most virtuous women of Paradise are these four: Khadijah bint Khuwaylid, Fatimah bint Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), Asiyah bint Muzahim, the wife of Pharaoh, and Maryam bint Imran.
Hadith 10558
عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِمَعْنَاهُ
Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated a similar hadith of the Prophet.
Hadith 10559
عَنْ عَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ خَيْرُ نِسَائِهَا مَرْيَمُ بِنْتُ عِمْرَانَ وَخَيْرُ نِسَائِهَا خَدِيجَةُ
Narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) said: Lady Maryam bint Imran (peace be upon her) was the best among the women of her time, and Lady Khadijah (may Allah be pleased with her) was the best among the women of her era.
Hadith 10560
عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا ذَكَرَ خَدِيجَةَ أَثْنَى عَلَيْهَا فَأَحْسَنَ الثَّنَاءَ قَالَتْ فَغِرْتُ يَوْمًا فَقُلْتُ مَا أَكْثَرَ مَا تَذْكُرُهَا حَمْرَاءَ الشِّدْقِ قَدْ أَبْدَلَكَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ بِهَا خَيْرًا مِنْهَا قَالَ مَا أَبْدَلَنِي اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ خَيْرًا مِنْهَا قَدْ آمَنَتْ بِي إِذْ كَفَرَ بِي النَّاسُ وَصَدَّقَتْنِي إِذْ كَذَّبَنِي النَّاسُ وَوَاسَتْنِي بِمَالِهَا إِذْ حَرَمَنِي النَّاسُ وَرَزَقَنِي اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَلَدَهَا إِذْ حَرَمَنِي أَوْلَادَ النِّسَاءِ
It is narrated from Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that whenever the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) mentioned Sayyida Khadijah (may Allah be pleased with her), he would praise her and praise her greatly. One day, I felt great jealousy and said: You mention this old woman with red gums so much, even though Allah Almighty has given you a better substitute than her. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Allah Almighty has not given me a better substitute than her. Khadijah was the one who believed in me when people were disbelieving in me, she affirmed me when people were denying me, she supported me with her wealth when people were depriving me, and Allah Almighty granted me children from her when He had deprived me of children from other women.
Hadith 10561
عَنْهَا مِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَانٍ قَالَتْ ذَكَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَوْمًا خَدِيجَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا فَأَطْنَبَ فِي الثَّنَاءِ عَلَيْهَا فَأَدْرَكَنِي مَا يُدْرِكُ النِّسَاءَ مِنَ الْغَيْرَةِ فَقُلْتُ لَقَدْ أَعْقَبَكَ اللَّهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مِنْ عَجُوزٍ مِنْ عَجَائِزِ قُرَيْشٍ حَمْرَاءِ الشَّدْقَيْنِ قَالَتْ فَتَغَيَّرَ وَجْهُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ تَغَيُّرًا لَمْ أَرَهُ تَغَيَّرَ عِنْدَ شَيْءٍ قَطُّ إِلَّا عِنْدَ نُزُولِ الْوَحْيِ وَعِنْدَ الْمَخِيلَةِ حَتَّى يَعْلَمَ رَحْمَةٌ أَوْ عَذَابٌ
(Second chain) Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) says: One day, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) mentioned Sayyida Khadijah (may Allah be pleased with her) and praised her for a long time. The same jealousy overcame me that overcomes women, and I said: O Messenger of Allah! Allah Almighty has given you a substitute for that old woman of Quraysh with red gums. Upon hearing this, the face of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) changed so much that I had never seen him in that manner, except at the time of the descent of revelation or when a cloud appeared, until he would know whether it was mercy or punishment.
