Although Hazrat Aisha (ra) was still very young when our beloved
Prophet (saas) died, she was one of those who best knew, understood
and committed to memory the Holy Qur'anand the Sunna of our Prophet
(saas). Hazrat Aisha (ra) began memorizing the Qur'an from an early
age and made enthusiastic use ofour Prophet's (saas) learning.
Leading members of the community in both the time of the Prophet's
(saas) Companions, and of those who had spoken to and learned from
them, sought Hazrat Aisha's (ra) adviceon a great many matters.Many
jurists consulted with our mother Hazrat Aisha (ra) in order to
benefit from her legal knowledge.
Hazrat Aisha (ra) used Arabic very well, and due to her clear and
accessible way of speaking and the way she preached in the manner most
suited to the person concerned, she had a great impact on those to
whom she spoke.
In addition to being our Prophet's (saas) wife, Hazrat Aisha (ra) was
also a worthy student of his, and occupies a special place in the
field of learning. She corrected errors made by many scholars in the
field of canonical jurisprudence and issued perfect interpretations of
a number of hadiths. Hazrat Umar (ra) always sought the opinions of
Hazrat Aisha (ra) on legalissues regarding women. This learning onthe
part of our mother Hazrat Aisha (ra) is related as followes in Islamic
reference sources:
Abu Musa al-Ash'ari says:"When we had difficulty understanding a
hadith from Rasulullah (saas), we would ask Hazrat Aisha (ra) what it
meant and we always received an answer from her ". (www.beyan.com.tr)
Hazrat Urve says of Hazrat Aisha (ra) that, "I never saw a woman more
learned than Hazrat Aisha (ra) in the fields of canonical
jurisprudence, medicine and poetry."
Ata bin Abî Rebâh said,"Hazrat Aisha (ra) was one of the members of
the Ummah with the best knowledge of religious law and who held the
very soundest opinions."
Because of her remarkable memory and her close attention to every
move made by our Prophet (saas), the information provided byour mother
Hazrat Aisha (ra) is of the greatest value. Hazrat Aisha (ra), one of
the Companions who related most hadiths, handed down atotal of 2,210
hadiths from our Prophet (saas).
Hazrat Aisha's (ra) Contribution to the Spread of Islam
Following the death of the Prophet Muhammad (saas), our mother Hazrat
Aisha's (ra) house in Medina became a center of learning wheremany
people, great and small, would come to listen to her. In this way, she
had the opportunity to spread and transmit Islamic moral values in the
most effective way.
Hazrat Aisha's (ra) wise speech and her deep love of and devotion to
our Lord and our Prophet (saas) were instrumental in her having a
considerable impact on the people she spoke to.
Our mother Hazrat Aisha (ra) took a close interest in women's
education and schooling right fromthe time when our Prophet (saas) was
still alive. Thus she herself and the students she taught became clear
models showing that women needed to be actively involved in learning.
Our mother Hazrat Aisha (ra) died in Medina on Tuesday, the 17th day
of Ramadan, in the year 676.
