Narrated from Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), she says: When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) distributed the captives of Banu Mustaliq among the Companions, Juwayriya bint al-Harith came into the share of Sayyiduna Thabit bin Qais (may Allah be pleased with him) or his cousin. Sayyida Juwayriya (may Allah be pleased with her) immediately entered into a contract of manumission with them (that she would be freed after paying a certain amount within a certain period). She was a very attractive woman; whoever saw her would keep looking at her. She came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) to seek his help regarding her contract of manumission. Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) says: When I saw her at the door of my room, out of jealousy, I did not like her. I knew that whatever I was feeling about her, you (the Prophet) would surely feel the same (that she is very beautiful and should be married). So she went to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: I am the daughter of the chief of my people, Harith bin Abi Dhirar. The trial that has befallen me is not hidden from you. Now I have come into the share of Thabit bin Qais bin Shamas (may Allah be pleased with him) or his cousin. I have made a contract of manumission with him for my freedom, and I have come to you to seek your help in this matter. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Would you like something better than that? She asked: O Messenger of Allah! What is that? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: That I pay the entire amount of your contract and marry you. She said: O Messenger of Allah! That is fine, I am pleased. Sayyida Aisha Siddiqa (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates that when the news spread among the people that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had married Juwayriya bint al-Harith, the people said: These captives have now become the in-laws of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). So they freed the captives who were in their shares. She narrates that as a result of the Prophet’s marriage to Juwayriya (may Allah be pleased with her), a hundred households of Banu Mustaliq were set free. I do not know of any woman who proved to be a greater blessing for her people than her.
