She had wisdom in that dark period and this wisdom led to the acquisition of divine grace.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\n\u201cOne of the achievements of Islam is \u201cSalam\u201d. In the age of Jahiliyyah (ignorance), when people met, they used words such as \u201cgood morning\u201d and \u201cgood evening\u201d. The Prophet (p.b.u.h) turned these words into \u201cAs-salamu Alaykum\u201d. \u201cSalam\u201d is the greetings of the heavenly beings,\u201d Nawab stated, according to the Hajj website.<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\n\u201cRegarding greetings, the Almighty God instructed the Prophet to say \u201cSalam\u201d to the believers when they come to him, and tell them that God has written mercy on himself to treat you with pity. \u201cWhen those who have faith in Our signs come to you, say, \u2018Peace to you! Your Lord has made mercy incumbent upon Himself.\u201d (Quran, Al-An&#8217;am: 54). Ziarat texts (written prayers) usually have three parts that begin with a greeting and continue with expressing the personality traits of the person we went on Ziarat (pilgrimage) for, and the final part is both a prayer and a request. The Prophets manners were such that when he went to visit the dead, he would say \u201cSalam\u201d,\u201d continued the representative of the Supreme Leader in Hajj and Pilgrimage affairs.<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\n\u201cThe level of the servant in which God says \u201cSalam\u201d to that servant, requires a special wisdom that Hazrat Khadija (a.s.) reached this position,\u201d he said, stating that \u201cSalam\u201d is sometimes from a servant to another servant, sometimes the \u201cSalam\u201d of the Prophet (p.b.u.h) to a believing servant which is done by the command of God, and sometimes in a special level of a servant, God says \u201cSalam\u201d to that servant.<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\nThe Prophet told Hazrat Khadija (a.s.) that Gabriel had sent him a message to convey God\u2019s \u201cSalam\u201d to Khadija (a.s.). When the Prophet (p.b.u.h) told this to Khadijah (a.s.), she replied, \u201cGod is Salam, from Him is Salam, and Salam to Gabriel\u201d,\u201d Nawab continued.<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\n\u201cHer wisdom is partly due to her family. Because she was one of the descendants of Ishmael (a.s.) and the descendants of Abd Manaf, and her family was mentioned in that land with greatness. Like the Prophet (p.b.u.h), Hazrat Khadija (a.s.) did not follow the polytheists and she was persecuted by the idolater polytheists. While this lady had all the characteristics of knowledge, worship, patience, forbearance, raising children and so on,\u201d he said, explaining the issue of how Hazrat Khadija (a.s.) reached this position.<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\n\u201cAccording to Shiite and Sunni hadiths, Hazrat Khadija (a.s.) had both great wealth and special knowledge and understanding. When she got to know the Prophet (p.b.u.h), she herself proposed to Abdullah\u2019s orphan,\u201d he mentioned saying, \u201cThat lady of Islam, presented her box of documents to the Prophet on the first night of the marriage. The Prophet did not neglect Hazrat Khadija (a.s.), and sometimes sacrifice sheep and sent the meat to Khadija\u2019s friends. Sometimes other women complained that God had given the Prophet better than Khadija. But the Prophet replied that no, God has never given him better than Khadija, and said, \u201cShe believed in me when everyone was away from me and left all his property at my disposal. He married Abdullah\u2019s orphan and became Umm Al-Momenin, not to marry the Prophet and become Umm Al-Momenin\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\n\u201cWhen the Prophet (p.b.u.h) was in the She\u2019b (Valley) of Abi Talib (during the Quraysh boycott on Bani Hashem, Prophet Muhammad, and his followers), it was the property of Khadija (a.s.) that neutralized the sanctions and the siege. Therefore, when a person has wisdom, God also provides for him or her and includes His grace in him or her. Hence, the generation of the Prophet (p.b.u.h) continued only from Hazrat Khadija al-Kobra. Because Hazrat Khadija (a.s.) gave her property to the Prophet (p.b.u.h), God provided Kowsar to her,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\n\u2018Another provision of God to Hazrat Khadija (a.s.) is that in history, God has only greeted Khadija (a.s.). He was the first person to acknowledge the Imamate of Imam Ali (a.s.). The message of the life of Hazrat Khadija (a.s.) is that the defense of the Imam and the truth should not be neglected in any way. She gave all her wealth and power, and God appreciated this good servant for her goodness and provided her with Kowsar,\u201d Nawab clarified.<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr; text-align: justify;\">\nIt should be mentioned that the \u201cInternational Conference Umm Al-Momenin Khadija al-Kobra (a.s.), First Lady of Islam\u201d is held and organized by the Deputy of Women of Cultural and Educational Committee of Arbaeen, AhlulBayt (a.s.)
