Sunan Ibn Majah 1876 (Book 9, Hadith 32) #31228
Marriage of Prophet Muhammad and Aisha

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad's marriage to Aisha when she was six years old and how she was welcomed by the women of Ansar.

It was narrated that: Aishah said: "The Messenger of Allah married me when I was six years old. Then we came to Al-Madinah and settled among Banu Harith bin Khazraj. I became ill and my hair fell out, then it grew back and became abundant. My mother Umm Ruman came to me while I was on an Urjuhah with some of my friends, and called for me. I went to her, and I did not know what she wanted. She took me by the hand and made me stand at the door of the house, and I was panting. When I got my breath back, she took some water and wiped my face and head, and led me into the house. There were some woman of the Ansar inside the house, and they said: 'With blessings and good fortune (from Allah)'. (My mother) handed me over to them and they tidied me up. And suddenly I saw the Messenger of Allah in the morning. And she handed me over to him and I was at that time, nine years old".

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the marriage of Prophet Muhammad and his wife, Aishah. At the time of their marriage, she was only six years old. When they arrived in Madinah, Umm Ruman took her daughter to a house where some women from Ansar were present. They welcomed her with blessings and good fortune from Allah. After being tidied up by them, she saw the Messenger of Allah in the morning and he took her as his wife when she was nine years old. This hadith teaches us that we should always be welcoming towards others regardless of their age or background as it is a sign of kindness which will be rewarded by Allah SWT in this life and hereafter. We should also remember that our beloved prophet married at an early age which shows us that it is permissible for Muslims to marry at an early age if both parties are willing to do so with consent from their guardians or parents.
