After hearing his account of the journey, she decided that he would make the best of the husbands. To be borne in mind is that at that time, she was a woman of flourishing wealth and high status, and it was socially and financially befitting for her to have married one of the many important nobles of the Quraish who had already proposed to her.

At the time of the marriage, the Prophet SAW was twenty-five years old, while Khadijah was forty years old.

Another remarkable fact about this marriage is that the Prophet SAW married no other until after her death.
