Firestorm,

Aisha sided with Mu'awiyya and the Ummayyads against Ali's authority as 
Caliph, if I remember my Islamic history correctly. She even raised an 
army against him. She is not held in high esteem by the Shi'i. You can 
find out more by reading Balyuzi's Muhammad and the Course of Islam. I 
believe it is included in Ocean.

Dear Gabriel, 

According to the Sirah Muhammadiyyih, Ali and Aisha first had a falling out 
over the incident where she got left behind by a caravan and was brought back 
by a young man. I guess Ali had acted suspicious or something.

My understanding is that Khadijah was a widow who owned a trading concern and 
that Muhammad managed this for her.

Sandra,

Khadija was a wealthy widow who owned a trading company. She was 40 and 
Muhammad was 25 when they were married. She placed Muhammad in charge of 
her company and she was the first to believe in Him. She is the mother 
of Fatimih. While she was alive she was Muhammad's only wife and they 
were devoted to each other. After her death Muhammad married other 
wives, but they were political marriages, or marriages to the widows of 
followers who had died in battle.


In regards to women in Islam, Ms. Alright is quite right. One of 
Muhammad's wives's Aisha, is quoted quite often in Sunni tradition. The 
Shi's don't care for her much, but that's because she opposed Ali. None 
the less, she was a force to be reckoned with in early Islam. Rabia, was 
an early woman mystic and scholar in Islam as well.


I hope this helps. If Gilberto is lurking out their, he could probably 
add a lot more.
