عَائِشَةُ بِنْتُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ
Aisha bint Abi Bakr RA, a Mother of the Believers, was the daughter of Abu Bakr al-Siddiq RA and Umm Ruman RA. Married to the Prophet ﷺ after the death of Khadijah RA, she became his most beloved wife in the Madinan years, and her house beside the Masjid was his home. In 5 AH she was the target of the slander spread by Abdullah ibn Ubayy, until the opening of Surah al-Nur declared her innocence.
The Prophet ﷺ spent his final illness in her house and died resting against her, and he was buried in her room. She lived about forty years after him as one of the great scholars of the Companions, narrating more than 4,000 hadith, including the account of how revelation began.
