It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Many men have attained perfection, but among women, only Asiya (may Allah be pleased with her), the wife of Pharaoh, and Maryam (peace be upon her) have attained perfection. And the superiority of Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) over all women is like the superiority of tharid over all other foods."
