THE FAMILY OF PROPHET MUHAMMAD (S.A.W)
Maulid Nabiyi which is known as Malmaludu in kanuri language is usually celebrated by the Sunni (Ahlal Sunna wal jama) and shia muslims throughout the muslim world to commemorate the birth of prophet Muhammad every year. It is usually observed in rabial auwal, the third month of Islamic calendar for the reason known to them the wahabiyas (Najedis) locally known in Nigeria as izala did not observe this ceremony, even though the Nigerian government celebrated it with public holiday on 12 of rabial auwal every year.
To observe this ceremony with my fellow sunni (ahlal sunna wal jama) and shi’a muslims throughout the muslims world this year 1444AH corresponding to the year 2022, I put up this research title the family of prophet Muhammad (S.A.W). His family include his wives, concubine and children.
THE WIVES OF THE PROPHET MUHAMMAD (SAW)
1. Khadeejah bint Khuwaylid (RA)
She was the first of his wives. The Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) married her when he was twenty-five years old, and he did not take another wife until after she died. All his children were born from her, except lbraaheem .Al-Bukhaari entitled a chapter in his Saheeh: "The marriage of the Prophet (sallaalahu alayhi wa sallam) to Khadeejah (RA), and her virtues" in which he narrated a hadeeth from 'Aaishah who said: "I never felt jealous of any of the wives of the Prophet (sallaalahu alayhi wa sallam) as I did of Khadeejah, although she died before he married me, because of what I heard him say about her" (Bukhaari)
2. Sawdah bint Zam'ah ibn Qays (RA)
The Prophet (sallaalahu alayhi wa sallam) married her in the tenth year of his Prophet hood. (lbn Katheer in al Bidaayah wa'l-Nihaayah)
3 'Aa'ishah bint Abi Bakr al-Siddeeq(RA)
The Prophet (sallaalahu alayhi wa salam) married her in Shawwaal of the tenth year of the Prophet hood. (lbn Sa'd'sat-Tabaaqat). She herself said: The Prophet (sallaalahu alayhi wa sallam)married me when I was six years old, and consummated the marriage with me when I was nine." (Bukhaari & Muslim). Al-Bukhaari also narrated that the Messenger of Allaah (sallaalahu alayhi wa sallam) did not marry any virgin apart from her
4 Hafsah bint 'Umar (RA)
It was narrated from Abd-Allaah ibn Umar (RA) that Hafsah's husband Khunays ibn Hudhaafah, who was one of the companions of the Messenger of Allaah (sallaalahu alayhi wasallam) and had been present at Badr, died in Madeenah. 'Umar ibn al-Khattaab said I met 'Uthmaan ibn 'Affaan and offered Hafsah to him in marriage. I said: if you wish, I will marry Hafsah bint "Umar to you. He said: I will think about it. Several nights passed, then he said: I think that do not want to get married at this time. Umar said: Then I met Abu Bakr and said: if you wish, I will marry Hasah bint Umar to you.
Abu Bakr kept quiet and did not give me any response. I was more upset about him than about Uthmaan. Several nights passed, then the Messenger of Allaah (sallaalahu alayhi wa sallam) proposed to her and I married her to him. Then Abu Bakr met me and said: Perhaps you felt upset when you offered Hafsah in marriage to me and did not reply? I said: 'Yes
He said: Nothing prevented me from responding to your offer but the fact that knew that the Messenger of Allaah (sallaalahu alayhi wa sallam) had mentioned her, and l did not want to disclose the secret of the Messenger ofAllaah (sallaalahu alayhi wa sallam). If he had decided not to marry her, I would have accepted your offer. (Bukhaari)
5. Zaynab bint Khuzaymah (RA)
The Prophet (sallaalahu alayhi wa sallam) married her in Ramadaan, thirty-one months after the Hijrah. (Tabaqaat Ibn Sa'd)
6. Umm Salamah bint Abi Umayyah (RA)
Imaam Muslim narrated that Umm Salamah (RA) said: I heard the Messenger of Allaah (sallaalahu alayhi wa sallam) say: "There is no person who is faced with a calamity and says: InnaLillaahi wa inna ilayhiraaji'oon, Allaahummaujurni fi museebati wukhlufli khayranminha [Truly, to Allaah we belong and truly, to Him we shall return ;O Allaah, reward me in this calamity and compensate me with something better than it but Allaah will reward him in his calamity and will compensate him with something better than that She said: When Abu Salamah died, I said what the Messenger of Allaah (sallaalahu alayhi wa sallam) had commanded me, and Allaah compensated me with someone better than him: the Messenger of Allaah (sallaalahu alayhi wa sallam).
According to another report: when Abu Salamah died, I said: Who is better than Abu Salamah, the companion of the Messenger of Allaah (sallaalahu alayhi wa sallam)? But Allaah decreed that should say it. Then I got married to the Messenger of Allaah (sallaalahu alayhi wa sallam).
7. Juwayriyah bint al-Haarith (R.A)
She fell prisoner to the Muslims during the battle of Banu'1-Mustalaq, and she came to the Prophet (sallaalahu alayhi wa sallam) to ask him to help her to manumit herself and buy her freedom. He offered to buy her freedom and marry her, and she accepted. The Prophet (sallaalahu alayhi wa sallam) married her and made her manumission her dowry.
When the people came to know of that, they set free their own prisoners, so as to honour the in-laws of the Messenger (sallaalahu alayhi wa sallam). No woman brought a greater blessing to her people than she did. (lbn Ishaaq with a hasanisnaad. Seerat lbn Hishaam)

8. Zaynab bint Jahsh (R.A)
Concerning her Allaah revealed the words: "So when Zayd had accomplished his desire from her (i.e divorced her), We gave her to you in marriage, so that (in future) there may be no difficulty to the believers in respect of (the marriage of) the wives of their adopted sons when the latter have no desire to keep them (1.e. they have divorced them)" (Q33[al-Ahzaab).37).
She used to boast about this to the other wives of the Prophet (sallaalahu alayhi wa sallam), saying: "Your families arranged your marriages but Allaah arranged my marriage from above the seven heavens." (Bukhaari),
9. Umm Habeebah bint AbiSufyaan(RA)
Abu Dawood narrated from 'Urwah from Umm Habeebah (R.A) that she was married to 'Ubayd-Allaah ibn Jahsh, who died in Abyssinia. Then the Negus married her to the Prophet (sallaalahu alayhi wa sallam) and gave her a mahr (dower or marriage price) of four thousand dirham on his behalf, and sent her to the Messenger of Allaah (sallaalahu alayhi wa sallam) with Shurahbeel ibn Hasanah. (classed assaheeh by al-Albaani).
10. Maymoonah bint al-Haarith (RA)
It was narrated from lbn 'Abbaas (RA) that the Prophet (sallaalahu alayhi wa sallam) married Maymoonah when he was in ihram (Bukhaari). The words "when he was in ihraam are a mistake.
In fact the Prophet (sallaalahu alayhi wa sallam) married her after he exited ihram following 'Umratal-Qada. [See Zaad al-Ma'aad, Fath al-Baari].
11. Safiyyah bint Huyayy ibn Akhtab (RA)
The Messenger of Allaah (sallaalahu alayhi wa sallam) set her free and married her after the battle of Khaybar (Bukhaari).These are the wives of the Prophet (sallaalahu alayhi wasallam) with whom he consummated marriage. Two of them died during the lifetime of the Prophet (sallaalahu alayhi wa sallam) namely Khadeejah and Zaynab bint Khuzaymah (RA). The Messenger of Allaah (sallaalahu alayhi wa sallam) left behind nine wives when he died; there is no difference of scholarly opinion on this matter [See Zaad al-Ma'aad,1/105-114]
It was said that Rayhaanah bint'Amr al-Nadariyyah (or al-Quraziyyah) was also one of his wives. She was taken prisoner during the battle of Bani Qurayzah, and the Messenger of Allaah (sallaalahu alayhi wa sallam)chose her for himself and married her, then he divorced her then took her back. Tabaqaat bn Sa'd, narrating from al-Waaqidi, 8/130 And it was said that she was a concubine.This was regarded as more likely by lbn al-Qayyim in Zaad al-Ma'aad.
PROPHET MUHAMMAD (SAW) CONCUBINE
1. Marriyah al-Qabtiyyah
Praise is to Allaah. The Prophet (sallaalahu alayhi wa sallam) did not marry Mariyah al-Qibtiyyah, rather she was a concubine who was given to him by al-Mugawqis, the ruler of Egypt. That took place after the treaty of al-Hudaybiyah. Mariyah al-Qibtiyyah was a christian, then she became Muslim (RA).
lbn Sad said: The Messenger of Allaah (sallaalahu alayhi wa sallam) lodged her meaning Mariyah al-Qibtiyyah and her sister with Umm Sulaym bint Milhaan, and the Messenger of Allaah (sallaalahu alayhi wa sallam) entered upon them and told them about Islam. He took Mariyah as a concubine and moved her to some property of his in al- Awaali. And she became a good Muslim." (AI-Tabaqaat al-Kubra) lbn 'Abd al-Barr said: "Mariyah died during the caliphate of 'Umar ibrn al-Khattaab, in Muharram of 16 AH. "Umar gathered the people himself to attend her funeral, and he led the funeral prayer for her. She was buried in al-Baqee. (A-Isti'aab)
Mariyah (RA) was one of the Prophet's concubines, not one of his wives. The Mothers of the believers are the wives of the Prophet (sallaalahu alayhi wa sallam). Allaah says:
"The Prophet is closer to the believers than their own selves, and his wives are their (believers) mothers (as regards respect and marriage) "(Q33[al-Ahzaab]:6)
The Prophet (sallaalahualayhi wa sallam) had four concubines, one of whom was Mariyah. Ibn alQayyim said:"Abu 'Ubaydah said: 'He had four concubines: Mariyah, who was the mother of his son lbraaheem; Rayhaanah; another beautiful slave woman whom he acquired as a prisoner of war; and a slave woman who was given to him by Zaynab bint Jahsh'."(Zaad al-Ma'aad)
And Allaah knows best.
CHILDREN OF PROPHET MUHAMMAD (SAW)
Prophet Muhammad has seven children three sons and four daughters, they are as follows
1 Abdullah in Muhammad son
2 Kashim Ibn Muhammad son
3 Ibrahim ibn Muhammad son
The daughter is as follows
4 Zainab bint Muhammad daughter
5 Ruqayya bint Muhammad daughter
6 Umm Kulthum bint Muhammad daughter
7 Fatima bint Muhammad daughter
All those children two sons abdullahi, kashim and four daughters Zainab, Ruqayya, umm kulthum and Fatima are from his first wife Khadeejah bint Khalid (RA), while his last child (son) ibrahim was from his concubine Marriyah al -Qatbiyyah, an Egyptian and formally a Christian
All the three sons Abdullahi, kashim, and Ibrahim died while still infants, Abdullahi , kashim died before the coming of Islam while Ibrahim passed away in the Islamic period
MUHAMMAD’s DAUGHTERS
Muhammad took care to marry his daughters to good husbands. He married Zainab the eldest to Abubakar al AS Ibn al Rabi Ibn Abd Shams, whose mother was Khadijah's sister and who was an upright and successful citizen. The marriage drove a happily one despite the separation of the two spouse following zaynab's emigration to medinah after Islam. He married Ruqayyah and Umm Kulthum to Utbah and Ufaybatu the sons of his uncle Abu Lahab. This Marriage did not last for soon after the advent of Islam. Abu Lahab ordered his two sons to divorce their wives. It was ‘Uthman that married both of them are after the other. Fatima who was still a child did not marry Ali until after Islam
Muhammad gave his daughter Fatima in marriage to Ali, his cousin through latter has loved Muhammad perhaps more than anyone else and had remained by as to him ever since he was a child. When the prophet’s daughter, Ruqayyah passed away Muhammad gave Uthman ibn Affan her bereaved husband, his other daughter, umm Kulthum.
Ahmad is another name of prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) he is always advocator of peace than war that is why Islam means peace. We now witnesses as peace gradually return to North East particularly to Borno, Yobe and Adamawa sate. As Nigerian military declared to the world that about eighty thousand (80 thousand) of the jihadis (Boko haram and Iswap) fighters has surrendered to the Nigerian military with their families and they are now in their custody. The declaration was by the military spoke man at the defence headquarter in Abuja and also in Maiduguri by the theatre commander of operation hadinkai, major general Christopher Musa, the General also inform the press that no fewer than seven missing chibok school girls were rescued with their children from their captive in villages in sambisa forest recently and reunited with their families. The UN (united nation) secretary General Antonior Guteress has also visited the surrendered fighters in the military custody in Maiduguri and has fruitful discussion with them.
Because of this relative peace that we have in Borno state, almost all the internally displace people IDP camp in Maiduguri, about 20 of them were close by the state government and most of the IDPs were return to their various local government by the state government under the leadership of Governor Baba Gana Umara Zulum. Only one local Government that Guzamala local Government that still their IDP did not return home out of the 27 local government of the state (Borno)
Baba Ali Mustapha is of Ngarannam ward, Bolori II, Maiduguri, Borno State, Nigeria.

Is that about Mohammed the pedophile?

May peace and blessings be upon him(S. A. W)
Our noble Prophet Muhammad our Honour......
