500 Questions
Did prophet Mohammed divorce his wife?
Asked by Wiki User
Answer 1
No
Answer 2
Muhammad divorced several women, but the majority of these divorces were before he had consummated the marriage, so they were more like what we would call a broken engagement. However, he divorced two women after he had consummated the marriage and two more with whom he had been in a compromising position of being alone with them, although these marriages were not actually consummated. These four women are not given the title "Mother of the Faithful" and they are often omitted from lists of Muhammad's wives. Here are their names.
1. Mulayka bint Kaab. She was from the Layth tribe near Mecca. She did not realise when she married Muhammad that his army had killed her father. When Aisha informed her of this, Mulayka asked for a divorce, which Muhammad granted.
2. Fatima bint Al-Dahhak. She was from the Kilab tribe. She did not keep the rules about veiling very strictly: instead of sitting at home, she would watch the men in the mosque. When Muhammad found out, he divorced her.
3. Asma bint Al-Numan. She was a princess from Yemen. Aisha tricked her by telling her that Muhammad would be pleased if she told him, "I seek refuge in Allah from thee!" Asma naively said these words on the wedding night, not realising that they were the divorce formula. Muhammad said he could not stay married to a woman who had said this to him, so he returned the dower and sent Asma home.
4. Amra bint Yazid. She was also from the Kilab tribe. Muhammad discovered on the wedding night that she had leprosy, so he divorced her before the consummation.
Muhammad began to divorce both Sawda bint Zamaa(because she grew old) and Hafsa bint Umar(because she was argumentative). In both cases, he changed his mind and took them back. It is also said that he began to divorce Rayhana bint Zayd because of her jealousy but that he later reconciled with her. However, others say that Rayhana was only a concubine. If this is correct, it would have been impossible for him to divorce her.

Did Prophet Muhammad marry a six year old?
Asked by Wiki User
It doesn't say so in the Koran. It says it in the Hadith.
Sahih Bukhari
Volume 7, Book 62, Number 64:
Narrated by 'Aisha That the Prophet married her when she was six years old and he consummated his marriage when she was nine years old, and then she remained with him for nine years (i.e., till his death).
Volume 7, Book 62, Number 65:Narrated by 'Aisha That the Prophet married her when she was six years old and he consummated his marriage when she was nine years old, Hisham said: I have been informed that 'Aisha remained with the Prophet for nine years (i.e. till his death)." What you know of the Quran (by heart)'
Volume 7, Book 62, Number 88:Narrated by 'Ursa The Prophet wrote the (marriage contract) with 'Aisha while she was six years old and consummated his marriage with her while she was nine years old and she remained with him for nine years (i.e. till his death).
Volume 5, Book 58, Number 234:Narrated by 'Aisha The Prophet engaged me when I was a girl of six (years). We went to Medina and stayed at the home of Bani-al-Harith bin Khazraj. Then I got ill and my hair fell down. Later on my hair grew (again) and my mother, Um Ruman, came to me while I was playing in a swing with some of my girl friends. She called me, and I went to her, not knowing what she wanted to do to me. She caught me by the hand and made me stand at the door of the house. I was breathless then, and when my breathing became Allright, she took some water and rubbed my face and head with it. Then she took me into the house. There in the house I saw some Ansari women who said, "Best wishes and Allah's Blessing and a good luck." Then she entrusted me to them and they prepared me (for the marriage). Unexpectedly Allah's Apostle came to me in the forenoon and my mother handed me over to him, and at that time I was a girl of nine years of age.
Volume 5, Book 58, Number 236:Narrated by Hisham's father Khadija died three years before the Prophet departed to Medina. He stayed there for two years or so and then he married 'Aisha when she was a girl of six years of age, and he consumed that marriage when she was nine years old.
What is Prophet Muhammad's son name?
Asked by Wiki User
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) had both sons and daughters, the first of whom was al-Qaasim, from whom he took his kunya Abu'l-Qaasim. He died in childhood, and it was said that he lived until he was old enough to ride. Then came Zaynab, and it was said that she was older than al-Qaasim; then Ruqayyah, Umm Kulthoom and Faatimah. It was said concerning each of them that she was older than her two sisters. It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbaas that Ruqayyah was the oldest of the three and that Umm Kulthoom was the youngest. Then 'Abd-Allaah was born to him. There is some dispute as to whether he was born after his Prophethood began or before. Some scholars said that he was born after his Prophethood began. There is also some dispute as to whether he was al-Tayyib or al-Taahir, or whether they were other children; the correct view is that these were nicknames given to him; and Allaah knows best. These children were all born from Khadeejah and he had no children from any other wife. Then Ibraaheem was born to him from his concubine Maariyah al-Qibtiyyah in 8 AH. (Zaad al-Ma'aad, 1/103).
So the sons and daughters of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) were all born to him from his wife Umm al-Mu'mineen Khadeejah (may Allaah be pleased with her), apart from Ibraaheem, who was born from the Prophet's concubine Maariyah (may Allaah be pleased with her), who was given to him as a gift by al-Muqawqis, the king of Alexandria and the leader of the Copts.
According to the most correct opinion, he had seven children, three boys and four girls. The boys were:
1- al-Qaasim
2- 'Abd-Allaah
3- Ibraaheem
And
The girls were:
1- Zaynab
2- Ruqayyah
3- Umm Kulthoom
4- Faatimah
All of his children died during his lifetime, apart from Faatimah who died after him (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him).

"The Messenger (Muhammad) has believed in what was revealed to him from his Lord (Allah or God and same God worshiped in Judaism and Christianity), and [so have] the believers. All of them have believed in Allah and His angels and His books and His messengers, [saying], "We make no distinction between any of His messengers." And they say, "We hear and we obey. [We seek] Your forgiveness, our Lord, and to You is the [final] destination."
Who did Prophet Muhammed marry?
Asked by Wiki User
Her name was Qutayla bint Qays, although she is sometimes also known as Habla, and she was a princess from Yemen.
She was legally married to Mohammed in 632 and then set out on the journey from Yemen to Medina to meet him. But while she was still on the road, she heard that Mohammed had died, so in fact they never met.
Therefore Qutayla was definitely the final wife.

Who killed the Prophet Muhammad?
Asked by Wiki User
There was an attempt at poisoning the prophet (pbuh).
It was a Jewish woman from the tribe of Qurayza, after the men had been killed.
She attempted to poison the prophet, but she was not successful, even though the prophet had a taste.
Once he realized it was poison, he called for her...
And asked why she did it.
She gave him the reply, " You killed my husband, and my father, if you are a true prophet you would surely have realised it was poison, if you are a fraud, i would have favoured the people by getting rid of you"
He then forgave her, and let her free.
He died four years later, and as you know.. no poison takes 4 years to kill a man.
So he was not poisoned.

Who was the last prophet of bani Israil?
Asked by Wiki User
Believe it or not, the first person in the bible to receive the gift of prophecy is Enoch. However he only gets a brief mention. We know that Enoch was a prophet, because "God took him." He was so upright, "righteous" and moral, God told him "you don't belong there (the world of men), you belong in heaven with me, you don't need to die, your time is there is done." As a general rule, only prophets can enter heaven without dying, that is why beliefs within Judaism persist that Moses isn't really dead, like Enoch, Moses is still alive. Most of the patriarchs are dead, but none of the prophets are; they all reside in the "garden of the righteous." Enoch is not officially called a prophet, the first person in the bible actually considered a prophet was Moses, although, an earlier character (Joseph), made more predictions about the future than Moses did. Actually that I think of it, Moses did not make any predictions. All the patriarchs of the 12 tribes of Israel had extreme longevity; Joseph's brothers in fact outlived him. Joseph died, when he was 112, whereas his brothers such as Judah, Simeon, Levi, Isachar and whoever else, lived to their 140's. My own Hebrew blood is pure; absolutely no European admixture. Why is it important to me? One of the things I'm scared of, is extreme longevity; I am afraid that I may end up outliving whoever it is I marry. Even to this day, Misrahi Jews produce a large number of centegenarians, more than any other group of Jews, being an Iraqi Jew, that means I will probably live to be 100 too, assuming no accidents, plagues, whatever. Besides the fact that I practice Tai Chi Chuan and Yoga, extreme longevity is in my blood; full, or nearly full blooded Hebrew people are prone to have long lives. Among Iraqi and Yemeni Jewish families, men and women who see their GREAT grand children are not uncommon. Ashkenazi Jews though, tend to die off early. Its one of the curses of being a semite; you need to prepare yourself mentally for being around for a very long time before you are finally given peace. One of the reasons I neglect my Tai Chi and Yoga training, is because I do not much care for reaching the age of 140, had I a choice in the matter I would want to die at the age of 80. If you yourself are an Arab, a direct largely unmixed descendant of Ishmael whose maternal line is predominantly all Arab women, no slave girls, that is you are an Arab largely on both sides, prepare yourself; Ishmael, I believe died when he was 160. A friend of mine from Saudi Arabia, told me that one of his uncles on his father side, or rather grand uncles, a Beduin, was a young man during the Lincoln administration, and he did not finally die until the 1980's. Prepare yourself; a lot of descendants of Abraham may end up cursed with extreme age. I personally don't see it as a blessing; this is an evil world.
