Aisha (Allah be pleased with her) reported: Allahs Messenger ﷺ married me when I was six years old, and I was admitted to his house at the age of nine. She further said: We went to Madinah and I had an attack of fever for a month, and my hair had come down to the earlobes. Umm Ruman (my mother) came to me and I was at that time on a swing along with my playmates. She called me loudly and I went to her and I did not know what she had wanted of me. She took hold of my hand and took me to the door, and I was saying: Ha, ha (as if I was gasping), until the agitation of my heart was over. She took me to a house, where had gathered the women of the Ansar. They all blessed me and wished me good luck and said: May you have share in good. She (my mother) entrusted me to them. They washed my head and embellished me and nothing frightened me. Allahs Messenger ( may peace be upon him) came there in the morning, and I was entrusted to him.
