The husband
Zaynab bint Jahsh may Allah be pleased with her is Mother of the Believers Zaynab bint Jahsh ibn Riaab al-Asadiyyah, and the Prophet's cousin; her mother was Umaymah bint Abd al-Muttalib. She was among the first to embrace Islam and among those who migrated to Madinah. She was first married to Zayd ibn Harithah may Allah be pleased with him, then he divorced her, and the Prophet ﷺ married her by the command of Allah, the Most High. About her, Allah the Most High revealed His saying: ﴿And [remember, O Muḥammad], when you said to the one on whom Allāh bestowed favor and you bestowed favor, "Keep your wife and fear Allāh," while you concealed within yourself that which Allāh is to disclose. And you feared the people, while Allāh has more right that you fear Him. So when Zayd had no longer any need for her, We married her to you in order that there not be upon the believers any discomfort [i.e., guilt] concerning the wives of their claimed [i.e., adopted] sons when they no longer have need of them. And ever is the command [i.e., decree] of Allāh accomplished. (Noor International Center)﴾ [al-Ahzab: 37]. This marriage was a practical end to the pre-Islamic custom of adoption, which treated an adopted son like a real son in rulings of lineage and marriage. Zaynab may Allah be pleased with her was known for worship, truthfulness, and much charity. She used to take pride that Allah the Most High married her from above seven heavens. Aisha may Allah be pleased with her testified to her virtue, devotion, and charity. She was the first of the Prophet's wives to join him after his death, as she died during the caliphate of Umar ibn al-Khattab may Allah be pleased with him, and was buried in al-Baqi. Her life is a great lesson in obedience to Allah, correcting social customs that go against revelation, and the high rank of the believing woman through knowledge, worship, and giving.
