21 Feb 2018On the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ What is the common story about how the Prophet married Safiyya? The circulated story is that after Khaybar the Prophet executed Safiyya's husband and father, took her from Dihya al-Kalbi for her beauty, gave her the choice of slavery or marriage and consummated it that night. Mufti Abu Layth says every part of this is false. Lessonposition checkedSafiyyaKinana ibn al-Rabi' [?] (Safiyya's husband)Huyayy ibn AkhtabDihya al-Kalbi machine2 min 31 s9:06on YouTube
21 Feb 2018On the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ Why do the hadith about Safiyya's marriage contradict each other? Nearly all the reports come through one companion, Anas ibn Malik, who was a teenager at Khaybar and died decades later, and they contradict each other on almost every detail, so none can be taken as it stands. Only two facts are certain: Safiyya left with the Muslims and later became the Prophet's wife.
