#Women_Around_The_Prophet_(PBUH)_97
The Prophet's (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) Wives [Mothers of the Faithful]
Juwayriyah bint Al-Haarith, may Allaah be pleased with her, mother of the faithful/01
Mother of the faithful 'Aa'ishah, may Allaah be pleased with her, said: "I did not know a woman who brought greater blessing to her people more than Juwayriyah."
Juwayriyah is a diminutive form of Jaariyah.
Diminutive form in Arabic language has two opposing purposes. It can be used to as an expression of praise, commendation and showing love. It can also be used to disdain or derogate.
As for Juwayriyah, may Allaah be pleased with her, it was the Prophet, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, who named her so. For her name was Barrah: the name her father gave her. The Messenger of Allaah, sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam, then changed her name from Barrah to Juwayriyah.
Changing names of his companions is a known habit of the Prophet, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, whether it is a male or a female's name. He did this in order to let his companions shun all that was related to the time of ignorance.
As to why he changed the name of a number of female Muslims from "Barrah', there are different opinions in this regard, some of these related to the individuals and some related to the meaning.
The Messenger of Allaah, sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam, disliked that a man should praise himself, for the name Barrah' is derived from birr which means righteousness. How then can a person claim to be righteous and strut about with that name?
He also disliked that one should say: He just left the house of Barrah' (which means: a righteous woman).
Juwayriyah, may Allaah be pleased with her, was the daughter of the chief of Banu Al-Mustaliq, Al-Haarith ibn Abu Diraar. She was married to Musafi' ibn Safwaan, one of their leaders and most influential men.

#Women_Around_The_Prophet_(PBUH)_96
The Prophet's (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) Wives [Mothers of the Faithful]
Maariyah, may Allaah be pleased with her, the Copt/08
Ibraaheem died when he was in the hands of his father, peace be upon him, and his soul departed to its Creator.
The women broke into tears and wept in solidarity with the Messenger of Allaah, sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam.
At the grave of his son, his eyes were overflow with tears and he said nothing more than this:
"The eyes shed tears and the heart grieves. We are saddened by your departure, O' Ibraaheem. And we shall not say except what pleases Allaah."
At the peak of this tragedy, the Messenger of Allaah, sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam, never forgot that he was a Prophet. How could he forget that?!
At the very time that his son died, there was an eclipse of the son. But that was not because of the death of his son. It was rather a coincidental orbital movement. Thereupon some people said: "The sun eclipsed for the death of Ibraaheem!"
When the Messenger of Allaah, sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam, heard that, he quickly announced, "The sun and the moon are two of the Signs of Allaah. They do not eclipse because of anyone's death or because of their life."
Maariyah, may Allaah be pleased with her, lived for many years after the death of Allaah's Messenger, sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam. Abu Bakr used to pay for her maintenance, and 'Umar did so after Abu Bakr, may Allaah be pleased with them.
In the year 16 A.H.. Allaah invited her unto Himself.
Al-Waaqidi said: "She died in Muharram of the 16th year of Hijrah. Umar, may Allaah be pleased with him, gathered people to witness her funeral. He led the prayer on her after which she was buried at Al-Baqee`."
May Allaah be pleased with her and make the upper Paradise her abode!
There is final statement I would like to make:
The name Maariyah was strange among ordinary and known Arab names. I have never come across a female companion whose name is Maariyah (besides the mother of the Prophet's son) except only one.
Ibn Hajar said: "Maariyah, the Prophet's maid." Abu "Umar said: "Her agnomen is Umm Rabaab.
that the name "Maariyah' is not Arabic and that the Arabs did not know it except after Maariyah, the Copt. I believe that Maariyah' is a distortion of Maryam, because the name Maryam in foreign language is close to Maariyah in pronunciation.

#Women_Around_The_Prophet_(PBUH)_94
The Prophet's (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) Wives [Mothers of the Faithful]
Maariyah, may Allaah be pleased with her, the Copt/07
Maariyah delivered and it was a boy! The Messenger of Allaah, sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam, named him Ibraaheem as a way of seeking blessing with the name of his ancestor Prophet Ibraaheem, may Allaah exalt his mention.
That was in the month of Dhul-Hijjah, the eighth year after Hijrah.
The Messenger of Allaah, sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam, then said about Maariyah, may Allaah be pleased with her: "Her son has set her free."
This is an Islamic legal rule concerning bondswomen who bear children for their masters after they have been cohabited with as maids who are possessed by right hand. If they deliver their babies they become free.
In this aspect, we can say that Maariyah's presence in the Prophet's, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, household and around him generously enriched Islamic jurisprudence, as it enriched forms of social relations.
The 8th year of Hijrah is the year of conquest, the Conquest of Makkah. It was the occasion in which the Ancient House was purified from the filth of statues and the last bastion of polytheism was eradicated in the Arabian Peninsula. It was an occasion in which the veil of polytheism that had overwhelmed the Quraysh for generations, since their deviation from the pure monotheism of Prophets Ibraaheem and Ismaa'eel, may Allaah exalt their mention, was removed,
The Prophet's joy at the birth of his son Ibraaheem was great. This joy increases day by day in his heart. For, he would visit Maariyah in her house on days and in turns other than hers in order to see his son Ibraaheem while he grew day after day. He had carried him in his bosom many times and babbled with him. He was really a father not like other fathers! He was in fact a role model!
Can we forget his playing with his granddaughter Umamah daughter of Zaynab? Can we forget how he carried her in his back while he was in prayer?
Can we forget his love and affection for Hasan and Husayn, sons of Faatimah, may Allaah be pleased with them?
Can we forget his coming down from the pulpit while he saw Husayn entering the mosque stumbling in his long and loose garment and the Prophet, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, carried him in his hands and went back to the pulpit to complete his sermon?
We can never forget all that! We should then imagine, in the light of all the above memorable incidences, how strongly the Prophet, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, would have been attached to his son Ibraaheem, especially having seen him grow to an eighteen-month-old toddler and having seen him walk and talk!
Yes! He was the fruit of his heart and his own son! But...
Allah says:
(Muhammad is not the father of any of your men, but he is the Messenger of Allaah and the last [end] of the Prophets...][Quran 33: 40]
{مَّا كَانَ مُحَمَّدٌ أَبَا أَحَدٍ مِّن رِّجَالِكُمْ وَلَٰكِن رَّسُولَ اللَّهِ وَخَاتَمَ النَّبِيِّينَ}
Though this verse was revealed for a specific reason relating to Zayd ibn Haarithah, but as far as I am concerned, and Allaah Knows best it heralded a divine rule: That the Seal of the Prophets would not have any sons of his who would live after him.
When Ibraaheem was eighteen-months old, he became a victim of a fever. All remedies were of no avail. He breathed his last in the hands of his father and his soul departed to its Creator.

#Women_Around_The_Prophet_(PBUH)_93
The Prophet's (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) Wives [Mothers of the Faithful]
Maariyah, may Allaah be pleased with her, the Copt/06
Those noble verses (1-5) throughout (Al-Tahreem) Soorah revolve around three things:
One: Reason for the revelation, mentioning of the event and its entailment of censure from Allaah to His Messenger in the beginning of the Soorah. The Soorah then mentioned the rule concerning atoning for an oath and then a severe threat from Allaah for 'Aa'ishah and Hafsah's, may Allaah be pleased with them, helping of one another against the Messenger of Allaah, sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam.
Two: Mentioning of sincere repentance. This is addressed to all Muslims.
Three: The Soorah ends with citing an example from history about two women who would enter Hell though they were wives of two Prophets. They are Prophet Noah's, may Allaah exalt his mention, wife and Prophet Lot's, may Allaah exalt his mention, wife. Both of them betrayed their husbands and their husbands did not avail them nothing against Allaah and they were told, "Enter the Fire along with those who enter!"
Another example is then cited of the two among the women of Paradise:
Pharaoh's wife who asked her Lord to build a house for her in Paradise and rescue her from Pharaoh and his evil deeds and from the regressive people. The second woman is Maryam (Jesus' mother), may Allaah exalt their mention, the daughter of Imraan who guarded her chastity and she testified to the truth of the Words of her Lord and she was of the obedient to Allaah.
Dear reader, do not forget that Maariyah was the cause of all this.
She was once wrongfully accused of a doubtful behaviour. But Allaah exonerated her.
Ibn Abdul-Hakam narrated on the authority of Abdullaah ibn Umar, may Allaah be pleased with them, who said: "The Messenger of Allaah, sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam, visited the Copt lady, the mother of his son Ibraaheem and found with her a relative of hers who came along with her from Egypt and who frequently visited her. The Prophet, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, was upset and he went back. "Umar, may Allaah be pleased with him, then met him and knew from his looks that he was upset. So he asked him of the matter and he informed him. Thereupon, Umar, may Allaah be pleased with him, took his sword and went in to the apartment of Maariyah while her relative was still with her. He aimed at striking him with the sword. When the eunuch saw that, he exposed himself for he had no genitals. When Umar, may Allaah be pleased with him, saw that, he returned to the Messenger of Allaah, sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam, and informed him of what he saw. The Prophet, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, thereupon said: Angel Gabriel has come to me and informed me that Allaah has exonerated Maariyah and her relative and that she is pregnant of a son for me and that he resembles me more than anybody else.
He also commanded me to name him Ibraaheem and he (Gabriel) called me Abu Ibraaheem'
