Hafsah’s (ra), noble qualities
Five years before the Prophet (saw) was chosen to be messenger of Allah (saw), the renovation of the Ka’bah took place, then the Prophet (saw) was 35 years old.
When it came to the point to placing the Blackstone of the Ka’bah he (saw), was given the honor
He, (saw), stunned the people by asking for a large sheet; placing the Blackstone in the center of the sheet and asking each of the chiefs to hold the edges of the sheet and raise it. He, (saw), himself then picked it up and placed it in the nitch of the wall.
Thus, a thorny issue was very simply yet brilliantly resolved. It was during this time that Hafsah, (ra), was born in the family of a great warrior and wrestler, Umar bin Khatab (ra)
