Umm al-Mu'mineen Aisha Siddiqa (may Allah be pleased with her) says: Khadijah's (may Allah be pleased with her) sister, Halah bint Khuwaylid, sought permission to enter upon the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and he remembered the way Khadijah (may Allah be pleased with her) used to seek permission. He became happy and said, "O Allah! Halah bint Khuwaylid." I felt jealous, so I said, "Do you remember one of the old women of Quraysh, one with red gums (i.e., extremely old, with no teeth left, only redness), who died long ago, while Allah has given you someone better than her (a young virgin like me)?"
