Ā'ishah bint Abi Bakr as-Siddiq رضي الله عنها


 Jackson & Perkins "Dr. Jane Goodall Rose" - #JGI169 | the Jane ...

'Ā'ishah رضي اللّٰه عنها said:

“I have surely been given nine virtues which were not given to any other woman after Maryam bint 'Imrān:

Jibrīl descended with my image in his dream until the Prophet was commanded to marry me.

He married me when I was a virgin and he did not marry a virgin other than me.

His soul was taken while his head was in my lap.

He was buried in my home.The angels surrounded my home.

Revelation descended while I was with him under his blanket.

I am the daughter of his caliph and his friend.

My name was cleared of the slander from the heavens.

I was created pure for one who is pure.

I have been promised forgiveness and a generous reward.”
