Hafsah bint Umar رضي الله عنهم (S4) Our mother رضي الله عنها was taught how to read, write, perform ruqyah and treat ant bites by Layla رضي الله عنها, who was known as ‘as-Shifa’ رضي الله عنها. Ali (رضي الله عنه): “Teach yourself, and your families all that is good”. A common misconception is that women should be kept away from an education - the complete opposite to what the Salaf practiced. Hafsah رضي الله عنها narrated 60 Hadith, and was one of our messenger’s ﷺ most learned wives. Allah ﷻ Himself praised Hafsah رضي الله عنها for her worship: “She fasts frequently, stands for long at night, she is your wife in Paradise” She رضي الله عنها observed fasting all the way into her old age.
