committed to memory the Holy Qur'an and the Sunna of our Prophet
(saas). Hazrat Aisha (ra) began memorizing the Qur'an from an early
age and made enthusiastic useof our 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) advice on a great many matters. Many
jurists consulted with our motherHazrat 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 theperson concerned, she hada great impact on those towhom
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 legal issues regarding women. This learning on
the part of ourmother Hazrat Aisha (ra) isrelated 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 answerfrom 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
verysoundest opinions."
Because of her remarkable memory and her close attention to every move
made by our Prophet (saas), the information provided by our mother
Hazrat Aisha (ra) is of the greatest value. Hazrat Aisha (ra), one of
the Companions who related most hadiths, handed down a total of 2,210
hadiths from our Prophet (saas).
Hazrat Aisha's (ra) Contribution to the Spread of Islam
Following the death of theProphet Muhammad (saas), our mother Hazrat
Aisha's (ra) house in Medina became a center oflearning where many
people, great and small, would come to listen to her. In this way, she
had the opportunity to spread and transmit Islamic moralvalues 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 inwomen's education
and schooling right from the 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.

of Ramadan, in the year 676.
